SUMMARY
** VIRTUAL VIEWINGS AVAILABLE **
An extremely spacious former pub located in the popular village of Brome, this property has granted planning permission for a change of use into a residential, has six bedrooms over three floors and a wealth of features retained from the previous public house.

DESCRIPTION
This well-known former public house stands outside the village of Brome, in a prominent location on the Norwich Road. Having closed several years ago, much of the original character of this pub has been retained including part of the original bar and beer cellar. The accommodation is spread over three stories, offering up to six bedrooms with a great deal of character throughout. Externally, the property stands within mature grounds of around 1.75 acres (STMS) which are mainly laid to grass, and alongside the house itself, is a useful workshop which also houses the oil tank. The property now offers a great deal of potential to create an extremely spacious family home having had planning permission for change of use from public house to residential in 2017.
