Holiday Let Opportunity
Mill Hill Farm is currently a much loved family home, although could easily lend itself to be being a second home with potential to generate a second income as a holiday let. The unique character of the property, village location and close proximity to the coast make it the perfect base to explore.

The Location
Mill Hill Farm is located on the edge of Foulsham, which is a picturesque village located 11 miles north-west of the edge of Norwich at Taverham, 8 miles east of Fakenham, 8 miles north of Dereham, 9 miles south of Holt and 10 miles west of Aylsham. Known locally as the 20 minute village! Just 13 miles from the North Norfolk Coast at Wells-Next-The-Sea and 15 miles from the Norfolk Broads, makes this an ideal place to live in a truly rural location away from the crowds. Foulsham has a busy village hall community hub, very well stocked village shop, primary school and first class car repair centre. The pub closed recently but it is hoped will reopen again under new management.
