Brown&Co residential sales manager David Hinton said: “Boundary Farm House dates back to late Victorian times and was acquired by the vendors some 13 years ago. 

“Since then, it has been renovated to a high standard and extended and offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire a family house in outstanding condition, occupying a delightful plot of land within easy reach of Norwich.”
