3 bed detached house for sale

Crossing Road, Palgrave IP22

This apparent barn conversion is in fact a bespoke 2 or 3 bedroom Scandia-Hus dwelling. Scandia-Hus are renowned for their Swedish technology and British craftsmanship and claim to be the UK's largest designer and supplier of Swedish energy-saving timber frame homes.

Oak Tree Cottage is a Scandia-Hus bespoke building, designed specifically for its first and only owner since new. Individually designed and tailored the property comes with all the high efficiency and simplicity synonymous with this UK/Swedish company. Designed to complement the setting, within a plot from the owners previous home and now neighbour, Grade II Listed The Thatches, the appearance of the building resembles a traditional Norfolk/Suffolk timber framed barn presenting externally black weatherboards beneath a red clay pantile roof. A final touch to the setting was the creation of a traditional style stable building to serve as a Workshop/Studio. Internally, the accommodation is light, airy and voluminous with tall vaulted first floor rooflines and an open engineered oak floored ground floor. Triple glazed windows and doors on each of the four ground floor elevations ensure good natural light and with two sets of french doors and further single door, easy access to the wide verandah and garden. Whilst much of the ground floor is wonderfully open plan, the end room has served as both a study and bedroom as it has a shower room alongside and its own means of stepping out into the garden via a further set of glazed doors. Upstairs, two further bedrooms each have their own facilities. The principal bedroom is a lovely large lofty room with bathroom including a roll top bath.
