This well-proportioned home has a wonderful approach with superb mature leafy frontage which is brilliantly in-keeping with the nearby woodland surroundings which offer an abundance of walks to explore.
Just a hop, skip and jump down the road is the stunning water gardens which attract visitors from far and wide to discover the array of colourful plants and flowers before taking a moment's pause at the café - making it a great day out for young and old alike.
The overall layout and room sizes of this property have been well considered, and although it would benefit from updating throughout, some more recent adaptations, such as the creation of an open plan kitchen/dining room, this home does remain on trend with the demands of modern living.
Each of the main reception rooms enjoys captivating views over the garden, which is fabulously inviting. Sliding doors from the living room neatly frame the outlook from which to take-in the visiting wildlife whilst providing easy transition to the patio and lawn area beyond.
The country kitchen is welcoming and cosy with substantial units and work surface benefiting from two integrated ovens, a hob and dishwasher.
Just a few steps out the side door is a double garage, conveniently located when returning home with shopping for the household - or, of course, if you require space for an additional chest freezer.
Concluding the ground floor is a WC with shower – ideal for adventurous living with the ability to get scrubbed down without venturing too far into the home or of course useful for multi-generational living and those with restricted mobility.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms and two generous singles. The principle bedroom is served by its own en-suite shower room whilst the remaining bedrooms have use of the family bathroom - with separate bath and shower. One of the remaining doubles has a walk-in wardrobe and each of the bedrooms feels uniquely characterful, with exposed timbers and charming outlooks.
Outside, the garden is deceptively large with a mix of open spaces, border planting and little hideaways to be revealed. Plenty of room for family life and perhaps even somewhere to create an enviable vegetable patch.
GOODERSTONE A traditional Norfolk village, Gooderstone is home to a friendly community and is situated approximately 6 miles away from the market town of Swaffham.
In the heart of Gooderstone is the attractive St. Georges Church, full of interest and character with a 13th century Norman square tower at one end and the chancel at the other. A mobile Post Office also stops here several times a week.
Opposite St. Georges Church is the Swan Inn. This is a popular and friendly local Norfolk village pub, offering regular informal folk music and acoustic 'jam' evenings each month, as well as a monthly pub quiz, a weekly singing group, a craft club and a regular coffee morning, along with charity fundraising and other popular events during the year.
For those with young children, the local Primary School is OFSTED rated outstanding and there is also a pre-school.

With six acres of gardens, this unique attraction is the perfect place for garden lovers, photographers, artists, or purely those who just want to sit amongst the tranquillity. The Tearoom here is popular within the community and offers tea, coffee, cakes, and both hot and cold snacks. The Water Gardens are open all year round and dogs are also welcome to join their owners.
The nearby historic, thriving market town of Swaffham offers 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.
