Starston Hall is a handsome Grade II Listed house dating from 1601 with later additions. The property features impressive red brick elevations and two magnificent columned chimney stacks, while inside there are plenty of period features, including fine fireplaces, original Norfolk pamment floors, substantial beams and a charming minstrel’s gallery looking over the entrance hall. The accommodation extends to around 4,500 square feet over three floors, including four reception rooms and five bedrooms. Both the drawing room and dining room are beautifully appointed spacious rooms with feature fireplaces and stripped floorboards. The kitchen/breakfast room measures over 30 feet in length and houses an Aga cooker amongst bespoke hand painted solid wood units under granite worktops with kitchen island and integrated appliances. The rear hall has a set of six servants bells and leads to a study with a good range of bookshelves, a dry cellar with wine racks, a snug, utility room, storage lobby, boot room and guest wc completing the ground floor. Upstairs is the large principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes, two additional double bedrooms (one with en suite shower room) and a family bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms and bathroom are located on the second floor. All of the bedrooms are very spacious.

The property lies in beautiful grounds, which retain most of the original moat surrounding the house. The property is approached over a long drive leading to a lawn garden with a carriage driveway. The grounds surrounding the house include lawns and meadows, a paved terrace with loggia outbuilding and a wide variety of mature specimen trees. A further outbuilding presently used as a games room with the potential (subject to permission) to be an office or annexe accommodation. A bridge crosses the moat to an area set aside for wildlife to flourish, where the overall feeling is one of peace and tranquillity.

Starston Hall is set in a beautiful and secluded rural position, 17 miles south of Norwich and just over two miles from the small town of Harleston where there is a variety of shops and cafes, a leisure centre and other amenities. The area is well connected by road, with the A143 and A140 both within easy reach. Rail services are available 10 miles away in Diss, which provides direct services to London Liverpool Street, taking approximately 90 minutes.
