Located in the desirable village of Barton Turf, The Old Forge is a spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow with a rich history and huge potential. Once a working forge, the property has been gradually converted over the years and now offers a unique layout with generous accommodation. While it would benefit from cosmetic updating throughout, it provides a solid base for anyone looking to create a home in a peaceful rural setting. Set back from the road, the property is accessed via an in-and-out shingle driveway providing ample parking and leading to a detached single garage with electric door, power, and lighting. There’s also a lean-to workshop to the side, ideal for storage or hobbies. An entrance porch leads into the property, offering space for coats and boots. From here, you enter into a garden room-style entrance hall with bifolding doors to the rear garden and access to all rooms, creating a light and open feel. The accommodation includes a large lounge/dining room with a dual aspect and two sets of French doors opening to the side garden. This flexible space could be modernised to suit a variety of layouts and lifestyles. There are three bedrooms, including a main bedroom with an ensuite wet room. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a separate family shower room. All rooms offer good proportions and scope for improvement. To the rear, the property enjoys a generous garden with open field views, providing a private and peaceful setting with a countryside feel. This outdoor space offers plenty of potential for landscaping or extension (subject to planning). Situated in the heart of Barton Turf, a quiet village within the Broads National Park, the property is ideal for those looking for a rural lifestyle within reach of amenities. The nearby villages of Neatishead and Wroxham offer local shops, schools, and services, while Norwich is easily accessible for city amenities and transport links. The Old Forge is a property full of history and opportunity. While some modernisation is required, it presents a fantastic chance to reimagine and personalise a home in one of Norfolk’s most picturesque areas.
