The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer this spacious and highly impressive period property, conveniently situated just a short walk from the amenities of Fakenham town centre. The house has been lovingly restored and refurbished by the current owners over recent years, with great attention to detail being taken to ensure that the property retains the atmosphere and character of a period building, whilst also displaying a stylish and contemporary finish.


With almost 4,000 sq./ft. of internal floor area (including outbuildings), the property enjoys exceptional room proportions and offers superb versatility, with flexible accommodation with option of a separate living space or annexe. This would be ideal for a buyer who is looking to create an income from their home, or for three generations of a family looking to live together with independent accommodation.

The house occupies a generous plot with a private gated driveway, a garage and separate workshop, along with an enclosed rear garden which measures around 100ft in length and includes a neatly maintained lawn, various seating areas, a log storage shed and an additional garden shed.


ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed into the property via an entrance porch, from where a pair of doors with bespoke stained-glass windows lead into a spacious lobby area, with stairs rising up to the first floor. The two principal reception rooms are on the south side of the house and filled with natural light throughout the day. The bay-fronted sitting room has a wood burning stove in a painted fire surround, whilst the formal dining room has a granite fireplace serving as the main focal point.


The kitchen comprises a range of fitted storage units under solid oak work surfaces, with a Belfast sink and a free-standing range cooker, as well as a walk-in pantry and generous space for a table with chairs. A door to the side of the stairs leads into the ground floor cloakroom, which in turn opens into the utility/laundry room, which also houses the gas-fired central heating boiler.


A door from the kitchen opens into the living room, which is another superbly proportioned family room, which serves as the main reception space in the self contained part of the property when the property has been divided into two. The living room has a curved bay-window on the east-facing wall, a wood burning stove and a door into the kitchen/dining room of the main house. The kitchen is equipped with a range of hand-painted storage units under oak work surfaces, with an integrated oven, hob, washing machine and fridge. The dining area offers plenty of space for a table with chairs, alongside a door into the neatly appointed ground floor shower room.


Upstairs there are three double bedrooms arranged around the main landing, with a large window on the half landing over the original staircase. Bedroom 1 is a bright and spacious room with original timber floorboards and an en-suite shower room, whilst bedroom 2 also enjoys a sunny south facing aspect. Bedroom 3 is another comfortable double room with fitted storage, which has also been used as a home office. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share the use of a fully tiled bathroom.


A lockable door halfway across the landing separates the main house from the separate accommodation, where there are three further bedrooms and another family bathroom. Bedroom 4 is an extremely spacious room with pleasant views over to the garden, whilst bedrooms 5 and 6 are also double rooms. A secondary staircase returns to an independent entrance hall for the separate living space where there is also a door opening into the living room on the ground floor.


OUTSIDE & OUTBUILDINGS

The property is approached through a pair of timber gates onto a private driveway, which sweeps to the front of the property, providing parking and turning space for several vehicles. The house is set back from the road behind a low-level brick wall and Beech hedge, with an area of lawn in front of the south elevation. Steps from the parking area lead up to the enclosed rear garden, which measures a little under 100ft in length and is mainly laid to lawn, with planted beds and borders, a number of established trees and various seating areas for barbecuing and entertaining guests. There is also a useful log storage shed.

There is a large garage attached to the side of the house, with a pair of newly installed double doors opening to the front and an inner door to a covered storage area at the rear. Adjoining the garage is a 16ft x 11ft workshop, which is also equipped with an electrical power supply.

Places of interest

    Laura Robinson and Ross Nicholas are founders and directors of The Norfolk Agents, both of whom are very experienced estate agents with a wealth of knowledge, having both worked and lived in Norfolk for a number of years. Having experienced the changing landscape of local estate agents, Laura and Ross identified a gap in the market to create a hybrid agency in Norfolk combining the best of both Online and Traditional High Street estate agency. In January 2020 Shane Ballard joined the business as the third director bringing more than 15 years experience to our growing business. Shane has previously held director roles at the award winning Greene and Co working under the stewardship of industry heavyweight David Pollock and latterly as Retail Director of Mid – Market London for Countrywide incorporating brands such as Bairstow Eves, Gascoigne Pees and Greene and Co. On Shanes return to Norfolk and before joining The Norfolk Agents he continued as Regional Director for Countrywide looking after 15 offices across Norfolk. All three directors are really passionate about our business model and believe that our proposition is one that delivers both on value and service compared to the High Street. Since the business was formed it has continued to grow and win friends across Norfolk, saving our customers in excess of £1,000,000 in fees. We do not have or believe in expensive High Street offices and believe that our model is proven to be the most cost-efficient way to provide fantastic service and deliver significant value to our customers.
