A £1.3m eco home has come up for sale in south Norfolk complete with a detached music studio nestled within its 1.7 acre grounds.

Savills’ property agent Tom Clayton, who is selling the home in Hethel, near Wymondham, says careful attention has gone into making the property both ecologically and economically efficient.

As a result, it is rated ‘B’ for its energy efficiency and features high quality insulation, an air source heat pump, PV panelling and insulated glazing.

“The quality of the build is only matched by the stunning setting to which the property resides,” Mr Clayton says, and further highlights include its high-spec kitchen with built-in appliances, large light-filled sitting room and four good-sized bedrooms - including one on the ground floor.

The principal bedroom, located on the first floor, is also of particular note as it features both an en suite and a dressing room, as well as a glass balcony that offers commanding views over the garden. There is also enough space for a table and chairs.

Within the grounds there is also a detached and sound-proofed studio, which is currently used as a music room but could offer a multitude of other uses.
