House For Sale £375,000
Hidden amongst rolling countryside and great Broads, the exclusive and desirable complex of Whitlingham Hall provides the gateway to an extraordinary way of life within easy reach of the city of Norwich.
Among the most attractive of these homes, this remarkable converted coach house boasts far more than meets the eye, with immaculately presented and highly versatile accommodation offering all the convenience of a low maintenance home whilst benefitting from the all the grandeur of such a prestigious setting.
Upon entering this charming home, one is immediately drawn to the striking formal sitting room to the rear, packed with period features and awash with natural light via the dramatic double height glazed arch giving access to the rear garden. A double height vaulted ceiling to the room reveals the mezzanine floor also – truly striking architecture for such an easy and low maintenance home.
The kitchen/breakfast room houses an array of fine cabinetry and integrated appliances, whilst ample room for a breakfast/full size dining table makes for a wonderfully versatile and sociable space.
The first floor is home to the impressive principal suite with high ceilings, yet more character features and a luxuriously appointed shower room en-suite. Elsewhere on the first floor, a brilliantly versatile study/reception or third bedroom sits atop the mezzanine alongside the family bathroom.
Yet another bedroom/additional reception is found to the top floor, flooded with natural light and boasting integrated storage.
Whitlingham Hall stands in 7 acres (STMS) of landscaped gardens and grounds, which are for the use of all residents and which include a large lake with a fountain. In addition, residents have the use of the beautiful orangery.
There is allocated parking to the front of the property, gated underground garage parking, as well as visitor parking spaces.
TROWSE Just south of Norwich, the pretty village of Trowse is steeped in history. One of a small family of model villages, it was created by the Colman family during the 1800s, for workers at the world famous Colman's mustard factory.
Today, it's a small village with a thriving community which benefits from a sports hall, astroturf football pitch, dry ski slope, woodland walks, riverside picnic areas, and a common right in the centre. There are two pubs, the White Horse Inn and the Crown Point Tavern, and a vegetarian café, as well as a primary school which is rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted. Adjacent Whitlingham Country Park has two broads, one a conservation lake, the other for water based leisure activities, and is a lovely setting for walking, cycling or relaxing, whilst having easy access into the city.
The perfectly preserved medieval streets of Norwich are home to a thriving community of small businesses, a vibrant food scene and an established arts culture. Named as one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich lies approximately 20 miles from the coast at the confluence of the River Yare and the River Wensum, the latter still bending its way through the heart of the city. Strolling through the historic cobbled streets of Elm Hill, whatever the season, the Tudor architecture retains its character and beauty. Laced with merchant's houses, thatching, individual homes, speciality shops and small cafes, you'll be led toward the 1,000-year-old Norwich Cathedral.
To the west of the city the University of East Anglia is a remarkable example of brutalist architecture, and the campus is also home to the Sainsbury centre, a permanent collection of modern and ethnographic art, gifted by the Sainsbury family.
When the bright lights call, trains to Liverpool Street take just 90 minutes, and the city's airport flies to a number of UK destinations, as well as direct to Amsterdam.
This is a city that reveals itself the longer you stay - a city to fall in love with - a city to be a part of.
