A detached three-bedroom house on the edge of Reepham village, with outbuildings and great potential for development.

Description

Red Willows is a detached 1950s bungalow situated on the edge of the popular village of Reepham, with open countryside on the doorstep. The gardens wrap around the property and there is a useful detached outbuilding which, together with the main property, offers fantastic potential for development if desired (subject to necessary consents). The house has been subject to a number of improvements over the years, including a new boiler and central heating, an extension with a new en suite bathroom, the addition of a utility room and new flooring and underfloor heating in the bathrooms and hall. Most notable is the barn room, which is warmed by underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove, and has vaulted ceiling with exposed timber trusses, the perfect space for family gatherings.

The house is attractively presented with modern elements incorporated into a traditional décor scheme, including a farmhouse-style kitchen with its range cooker and lots of storage, with space for a table for informal family meals. The reception rooms are numerous and provide excellent versatility, a sun room with glazing on two sides for enjoying views of the garden, a dining room, which could be used as additional bedroom, open plan to the barn room, with its cosy space for relaxing and a formal living room at the front of the house.

The bedrooms are all a good size, with room for double beds. The principal bedroom has a wall of built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom, while the other two bedrooms share a family shower room. There’s a utility room for laundry machines and a separate entrance for muddy dog walks which leads out to the garden.

Red Willows is set in a good-size plot bordering open countryside. A gated entrance opens to a block-paved driveway which runs alongside the house to the outbuilding at the rear, which is currently set up as stables and a garage but offers great scope for conversion (subject to necessary consents). The garden wraps around the other three sides of the house and is laid to lawn, with a number of mature trees and a paved terrace.
