Property description & features

  • Architect Designed Home on an Enviable Large Plot
  • Three Double Bedrooms and Highly Versatile Receptions
  • Low Maintenance Living
  • Desirable Location within Easy Reach of Norwich City Centre and the Norfolk Broads
  • Large Detached Garage and Expansive Wrap Around Garden

Nestled discreetly within the popular village of Spixworth, this distinctive home boasts an enviable plot housing a most unique, architect designed property. Formerly part of the Bacon-Longe family and Spixworth Hall estate, the land was purchased by our sellers in 1980, when it was mainly used for equestrian purposes. The bungalow was built in 2004, designed by a local architect and has served as a happy and fulfilling family home for many years.

Three generous double bedrooms are complemented by a versatile collection of receptions enjoying an excellent and considered layout for optimal functionality.

The open-plan kitchen/dining room is awash with natural light and offers a modern way of living, making for a lovely, social space, fit for any occasion. The formal living room provides good balance to the open-plan spaces, whilst the well-equipped utility offers invaluable functionality serving as a boot room also.

Amongst the three bedrooms, the principal suite enjoys a large en-suite bathroom, whilst the two further bedrooms are well-served by the central family wet-room/bathroom. The home also benefits from underfloor heating throughout.

Amongst the finest features of this home is the plot in which it sits. A long shingle driveway reveals the expansive 0.4 acre (STMS) plot beginning with the large private driveway, allowing plenty of space for multiple vehicles, complemented by the detached garage, summer house and workshop.

The wrap around gardens provide an enviable selection of areas in which to carve out a truly fulfilling lifestyle and indeed enjoy the sunshine all day long. Sunrises can be viewed, seated in the east facing kitchen/dining room and the large conservatory. Sunsets over Spixworth Woods can be enjoyed seated in the delightful south/west facing garden.  

SPIXWORTH To the northeast of the city of Norwich is Spixworth. This popular village offers excellent amenities such as a post office, village hall and social club, doctor's surgery, pharmacy, dentist, takeaways, shop, hairdressers, two schools, and a Public House, The Longe Arms. The village is near both the Norfolk Broads and Norwich.

The quaint village is steeped in history and natural beauty, with a beautiful natural reserve hidden within the village, the perfect place for delightful strolls around the winding paths and watching all the wildlife surrounding you. Alternatively, throughout the year, Spixworth and surrounding areas host a variety of events. From food fairs to music festivals adding a sense of excitement in the village, bringing the close-knit community together.

Spixworth is approximately seven miles from Wroxham, renowned for its boating culture. Standing on the river Bure, the village is divided by the river and shares its many attractions with the neighbouring Hoveton St John. Whether on the water or congregating in the busy pubs and restaurants on offer, there is something that will capture the heart of everyone. If you choose to hire a boat, you can travel at a leisurely pace along the broads and moor up at one of the local pubs. The Ferry Inn at Horning serves food all day and offers a fantastic outdoor space and plenty of mooring.

A fun family day out can be had at Wroxham Barns where crafts activities and a Junior Zoo are two of the many activities to enjoy, finishing off with a piece of homemade cake or perhaps a Norfolk-brewed cider. For sailing enthusiasts, the Norfolk Broads Yacht Club is situated close by, offering a large clubhouse, ample mooring, and many organized events for both members and guests.

In addition to Wroxham, Spixworth boasts an advantageous location, situated a mere 15 miles from Mundesley and 17 miles from both Winterton and Sea Palling. This provides you with a range of coastal towns to explore at your convenience. Moreover, the proximity to Norwich Airport is advantageous, with a distance of around 5 miles by direct route.

Approximately five miles away, the ancient city of Norwich has been home to writers, radicals, and fiercely independent spirits for over a thousand years, and today continues in its legacy as an enclave of culture and creativity. Its perfectly preserved medieval streets are home to a thriving community of small businesses, a vibrant food scene, and an established arts culture. It is also a gateway to a county that continues to inspire people with its unspoiled landscapes, open spaces, and big skies.

In the 11th Century, Norwich was the second-largest city in the country, and today is still the UK's most complete medieval city. Strolling through the historic cobbled streets of Elm Hill, whatever the season, the Tudor architecture retains its character and beauty. Laced with merchants' houses, thatching, individual homes, specialty shops, and small cafes, you'll be led toward the 1,000-year-old Norwich Cathedral.
