3 Barrack Yard Cottages is a three-bedroom, timber-framed thatched cottage, described by selling agent TW Gaze as “extremely appealing”, with attractive rural interiors and ancillary buildings, further enhanced by “the varied style of reception spaces”.
These reception rooms include a cosy living room with an open fire and exposed beams, which leads into a spacious kitchen/diner with a beamed ceiling and an arched alcove complemented by stylish, cream units and with ample room for a large dining table.

The vaulted, oak-framed garden room is one of the most eye-catching rooms in the property, with the glazed gable end inviting in plenty of natural light and framing the patio and outdoor space beyond.
TW Gaze added that this room is “excellent for entertaining friends and family in the summer months.”
Completing the ground floor is a family bathroom with bath, shower cubicle, WC and vanity wash basin. Meanwhile, on the first floor, there are three bedrooms and small WC off the landing.
3 Barrack Yard Cottages is nestled in pretty, well-kept gardens, carefully divided with greenery surrounding.
A section of artificial turf backs on to a delightful shepherd’s hut, which could be utilised as an office or studio space or a second income source as a holiday let, subject to the relevant permissions.
Also in this area is a large, detached double garage/workshop with a veranda which is perfect for relaxing on.
The rest of the cottage’s grounds are made up of a shingle and paved cottage garden planted with an array of mature shrubs and flowers, and a timber-framed greenhouse.
The property is accessed via a track, which TW Gaze notes is owned by a local landowner with 3 Barrack Yard having access over it. The adjoining driveway allows parking for several vehicles.
The Breckland village of Gasthorpe is situated between the towns of Thetford and Diss, both offering a range of useful amenities including shops, schools and transport links to Norwich and London.
