4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Langham Road, Field Dalling, Holt NR25

If you're looking for a character property with plenty of space, a generous garden and the potential for further accommodation, then The Old Bakehouse is certainly worth a look. Dating back to around 1795, this Grade II Listed former village bakery offers over 2,250 sq ft of versatile accommodation, with four double bedrooms, several reception rooms and a separate former flour store/barn with planning permission granted for conversion into a holiday let, along with potential for alternative uses such as an annexe or studio, subject to the necessary consents.

The ground floor includes a welcoming reception hall with an impressive inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, leading through to a separate sitting room. The spacious kitchen/dining/family room forms a central part of the home, with exposed beams, traditional flooring, an electric Aga, additional oven and hob, and plenty of room for both dining and seating. A cast iron spiral staircase provides access to the first floor, while a separate garden room, with two sets of French doors opening onto the garden, offers further reception space. There is also a utility room and boot/boiler room.

Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged across two landing areas, accessed via separate staircases. There are four double bedrooms, including a dual-aspect main bedroom with feature fireplace, along with a family bathroom featuring a bath and separate shower, and an additional shower room. Throughout the property, features such as exposed brickwork, vaulted ceilings, original fireplaces and timber flooring reflect the building's history.

Having most recently been used as a holiday home, the property is situated in the North Norfolk village of Field Dalling, approximately four miles from the coast and five miles from the popular market town of Holt.

The Outside

The property occupies grounds approaching 0.4 acres, including the long driveway, with established cottage-style gardens featuring a mixture of mature trees, shrubs and planted borders. Gravelled pathways lead through the garden, with two sandstone paved terraces providing space for outdoor seating and dining. A substantial brick and flint wall runs along one boundary, adding to the character of the outside space.

To the rear is an additional area of land providing off-road parking, accessed via a long driveway from Holt Road. The driveway forms part of the property's ownership, although a neighbouring property benefits from a right of way over part of it.

Within the garden is a separate former flour store/barn, a single-storey outbuilding currently requiring updating, which benefits from plumbing and a WC. Planning permission has been granted for its conversion into a holiday let, with potential for alternative uses such as an annexe, studio or additional accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions. There are also further useful storage outbuildings.
