Description
Old Hall is a most impressive Georgian country house which is entering the open market for the first time in over 40 years. Retaining a plethora of original features throughout with wonderful fireplaces, sash windows and elegant reception rooms, the property is a true must see for any lover of fine Georgian architecture.
Offering exceptional family accommodation of over 5800sq ft, the property boasts four grand receptions and of particular note the drawing room with its almost floor to ceiling sash windows provides superb entertaining space on a most elegant scale.
The Drawing room, morning room and dining room all face south and should a buyer wish to relocate the kitchen all three of these rooms would be strong candidates to create something very special.
The first floor offers six bedrooms including a principal room serviced via an en suite as well as a family bathroom and "Jack and Jill" en suite serving the remaining rooms. Four of these bedrooms enjoy the south facing aspect.
The property would now benefit from some modernisation but is a perfect, rare opportunity for a buyer to put their own stamp on a fine country house.
Outside
Accessed via a sweeping gravel driveway which leads to off road parking for numerous vehicles. The property stands centrally within an expansive plot of about 5.71 acres and features a high degree of privacy from the roadside. The gardens also convey a sense of character in keeping with the property and contain a variety of specimen tree, walled sections and topiary.
Providing secondary accommodation and thus perfect for multi-generational living is the converted two storey Coach House. This has been transformed into a two bedroom apartment with bathroom, kitchen and large sitting room. The ground floor remains as a useful workshop, garden store and double garage.
Location
Old Hall is situated in the popular village of Blofield, in a pleasant and private position opposite the village church. The vibrant village has a post office and shop for everyday essentials, a public house, medical centre, a popular primary school and farm shop. There are local amenities including a tennis club and golf course, with further amenities in the neighbouring village of Brundall. The Norfolk Broads are nearby, at Ranworth (about 5 miles) and Wroxham (about 7 miles), with a vast network of waterways to enjoy and the Norfolk coastline is about 14 miles away with wide sandy beaches, excellent bird watching and sailing. The ease of access from the house to the A47 provides a good link to Norwich, the cathedral city, with thriving retail, educational and cultural sectors including private and state education, theatres and famous lanes of independent shopping. The city has a mainline rail service to London Liverpool Street, and an international airport with connecting flights to many destinations via Schiphol.
