Grade II listed farmhouse for sale in Southburgh for £1.1m guide

A Georgian farmhouse located in Southburgh has come on the market for a guide price of £1.1m.

The farmhouse is Grade II listed and was originally built in the 17th century before the Georgian façade was added later, which was typical for many gentrified farmhouses throughout Norfolk.

The home is for sale with selling agent Savills and Ben Rivett, joint head of residential sales at Savills in Norfolk, said: “What struck me about Chase Farm House is the quality of architectural detail that elevates it above other similar houses. From the elegant fan light above the front door, large sash windows with shutters and deep lead flashings.
