There is an immediate feeling of attraction to Tayberry House as you approach it from the driveway leading up to its striking façade. The front door is set between a handsome 'Georgian' style rounded architrave providing access into the spacious main reception hall. The principal ground floor rooms are located off the hall, and all enjoy fine views over the gardens. The sitting room benefits from a log burner and double doors that open onto an outside terrace that links in well with the kitchen breakfast room enjoying a similar arrangement. The kitchen itself boasts a range of integrated appliances including a range cooker (electric with gas hob) and fitted central island. Additional ground floor rooms include the formal dining room, cloakroom and utility room.
The extensive bedroom accommodation (5 double-bed rooms) is located on the first and second floors being positioned off a central staircase which flows up the spine of the house. The principal two bedrooms both benefit from en-suite shower rooms and there are further separate bathroom and shower rooms serving the remaining bedrooms. The main bedroom also has the benefit of a large dressing room.
Tayberry House is approached from the south into a sweeping shingled driveway which flows past a large lawned front garden with a mixture of specimen trees, all being enclosed by attractive hedging and mature borders. The driveway provides ample parking for a large number of vehicles and leads up to the double garage.
The gardens and grounds are exquisite and a beautifully laid out and tended by the current owners. There are many points of interest for three exceptional seating areas. In particular, the attractive paved seating area adjoining the summerhouse (that gets the sun from afternoon until the end of the day) being worthy of special mention. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with deep flowerbeds. The whole is fully enclosed by attractive specialist 'Norfolk Reed' fencing which was recently commissioned by the current owners.
Above the garage is a super study/office/ playroom (with double doors to an attached outdoor seating area on the decking). The room has the benefit of telephone connections (2 lines) to the main house and a good internet connection. This has enabled the current owners to adopt this lovely setting for home working for over 13 years - but this extensive space could equally be used for a number of other purposes.
Below this room is a spacious double garage.
Services – oil fired central heating, mains water, mains electricity, mains drainage and calor gas for the cooker hob.
Local authority – Broadland District Council.
