Property description & features

  • Located in the Heart of the Historic Market town of Swaffham
  • A Detached Period Home
  • Three Double Bedrooms, one with a Private En-Suite and a Separate Family Bathroom
  • Wonderful Family Room with Cosy Log Burner
  • Generous South-Facing Garden, with Two Outdoor Entertaining Areas
  • Parking for Several Cars on the Driveway and a Single Carport
Carmelite House is located in the heart of Swaffham and whilst it is only a short walk to the town square - and all the amenities it has to offer - but sits further enough back to enjoy a calm and quiet setting.

Whilst the property does have a front door it is rarely used and the property is entered mainly through the side entrance into the utility/boot room. From here we move into the lovely shaker-style kitchen where many wonderful meals have been lovingly prepared over the years.

Positioned perfectly next door is a wonderful family room with space enough for a large dining table to one side and the ability for a cosy sitting area around the fire.

The ground floor also benefits from a third bedroom, complete with en-sutie, and the room has a large glass door leading out into the garden. Our clients loved sitting here and looking outside so much that they converted it into a garden room to get the most out of the views.

Upstairs the property has two good-sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside and facing in a southerly direction is the wonderful, landscaped garden which is made up of two halves.

The first half of this green space is mainly laid to lawn with mature hedges and trees bordering it and nearer the property is a brick paved entertaining area.

The rear half, or secret garden, is hidden behind a hedge and accessed through a small archway. Here we find another lovely garden, which is again mainly laid to lawn with mature planting, including a magnolia tree which blossoms with lovely large flowers. There's also a wonderful space for those summer barbecues which tend to spill in to the late evening.

The home also benefits from parking for two cars on the driveway and a single car carport. 

SWAFFHAM An historic and thriving market town, Swaffham is situated approximately 15 miles east of King's Lynn and approximately 30 miles from Norwich.

There is an extensive range of local amenities including a Waitrose, Tesco, Asda, further shops, pubs and restaurants, three doctors surgeries and primary, secondary and higher schools together with a variety of leisure and sports activities including an excellent golf club.

The town has an extremely popular Saturday market and many interesting historic buildings including the parish church and 'The Buttercross'.

The town also boasts a museum which focuses on many different and impressive parts of local history. One key gallery is The Carter Centenary, a chance to learn about Howard Carter, famous for the 1922 discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun - whose extended family lived in Swaffham.

The town offers a great hub for those who wish for a perfect family life. It has a series of schools for different ages, along with being relatively close to other schools including Greshams, Langley Hall and Beeston Hall School

It's also a good base to call home with local activities and entertainment including theatre, open gardens, nature reserves and more.

Swaffham is only around two hours by train to London, with great access to Cambridge and a short journey to Holt, Wells, Brancaster and Burnham Market - as well as the popular little seaside town of Sheringham. Norwich too is quick trip and provides an airport, offering direct flights to Amsterdam.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
