Modern and highly versatile family living accommodation is the hallmark of this home, which was constructed in 2009. Local builders and craftsmen lovingly created this home adding a great degree of traditional character, evident in the stunning brickwork and bespoke features to be found throughout. The use of natural materials features prominently, with oak doors, floor coverings and skirtings throughout this immaculately presented home.

Set well back from Watton Road and approached by a shingled driveway, double automated gates grant access to Balsam House and one other neighbouring property. Opening into an expansive driveway with ample parking to the front of the home and its integral garage, there is a great level of seclusion and security.

Entering the home, the central hall grants access to the flexible living accommodation. The kitchen/breakfast room is the hub of any home and certainly does not disappoint. The kitchen includes a full suite of integrated appliances, with a range cooker completing the country kitchen feel. In recent years, the current owners further improved the home, with the addition of an extension providing a highly convenient utility/boot room.

The sitting room is delightful, a brick built fireplace with herringbone brickwork houses a woodburner with a stunning solid oak mantel above. The room is filled with natural light with views out to the delightful rear garden and double doors onto the patio, the perfect spot for alfresco dining on summer evenings.

To complete the ground floor, a dining room, and a downstairs bedroom with en-suite facilities each further the flexibility of the home, in addition to a separate cloakroom.

Moving to the first floor, you will admire the stained glass window on the landing, furthering the sense of attention to detail in this bespoke home. You will discover a total of four impressively proportioned double bedrooms, an en-suite shower room to the principal bedroom and a beautifully fitted family bathroom.

The rear gardens have been well landscaped, with a stone patio wrapping around to the rear of the home. A delightful lawn flanked by railway sleeper borders, a raised deck topped with a timber pergola, and a summerhouse are all to be enjoyed.

This fantastic home is immaculately presented both inside and out, we highly recommend a private viewing in order to fully appreciate this offering. 

ASHILL Nestled between the market towns of Swaffham and Watton for convenience, Ashill is the epitome of mid-Norfolk living.

The village is quaint, the road through meanders alongside cottages, a community centre and an award winning village pub.
