House For Sale £695,000
5-Bedroom Detached House
The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this spacious and superbly presented family home, occupying a mature plot of over a third of an acre with a west-facing rear garden and stables; situated on a quiet lane in a pleasant rural location, just 5 miles from Fakenham and within a 25-minute car journey of the coast. The property offers fantastic family living space, having been extended and extensively modernised by the current owners around ten years ago.
Accommodation
Visitors are welcomed into the spacious reception hall, with a contemporary glass sided staircase rising to the first-floor and a door leading into the 28ft family sitting room. As well as offering fantastic proportions, the sitting room also houses a 12kw wood burner and a set of internal bi-folding doors that open into the living/dining area which extends across the full width of the ground floor. The living area was added as part of a programme of improvements in 2013/2014 and offers versatile reception space, which is currently arranged into a dining area and an additional seating area. Two expanses of glazing with double doors provide a pleasant aspect down the garden and access out on to the patio.
The living area is open-plan to the modern kitchen, which is also generously sized and comprises a range of light grey gloss-fronted storage units under fitted work surfaces which extend into a breakfast bar and dining table. Integrated appliances include a Bosch double oven, 4-ring hob, microwave and dishwasher, with a bespoke recess for an American style fridge/freezer.
At the side of the kitchen is a door into the side entrance hall, where there are doors leading to the outside, the integral double garage and the highly adaptable ground floor guest bedroom, with an adjacent shower room.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms arranged the bright and spacious landing, which also houses a large built-in airing cupboard. The stunning master bedroom is impressive in size, with a Juliet Balcony overlooking the garden, a spacious dressing room and a luxurious 4-piece en-suite. Bedrooms 2,3 and 4 are all served by a neatly appointed shower room, with vanity unit.
In all, the floor area extends to a little under 2,950 sq.ft.
Outside
The property is approached from the quiet lane over a shingle driveway, providing plenty of parking and turning space in front of the house and garage. Gated access at the side of the house leads around to the west-facing rear garden, which is divided into two main areas. The first section of garden measures approximately 90ft x 50ft and is mainly laid to lawn, with a large paved patio immediately to the rear of the house, a timber shed, several raised vegetable beds and a variety of fruit trees; including a plum, fig, apple, pear and a grapevine. A low-level fence separates this area from the 'working area', which includes a timber stable block with an electricity and water supply, a greenhouse and further storage buildings. In total, the plot extends to a little over one third of an acre.
