An impressive, detached property, Vine Cottage has all the luxury and grandeur of a period home whilst being easily maintained. Having been a cherished family home for 27 years, and the time has come for a new owner to begin making memories here.

The property is tucked away from the main road, offering privacy. When you drive up the private driveway and pass through the wooden gates, the property in all its beauty reveals itself.

Inside, there is plenty of reception space, but the kitchen/breakfast room is the heart of the home. It has a contemporary style with a touch of country charm, featuring a lovely Aga and a beautiful built-in dresser unit. The kitchen opens up to a spacious garden room, which serves as a dining area and sitting room, perfect for entertaining.

In addition to the kitchen, there are three further reception rooms, ideal for a growing family or those who work from home. Wine enthusiasts will appreciate the property's cellar.

On the ground floor, you'll also find a WC, utility room, and a separate gym, catering to various needs.

Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms, all generously sized, with three of them having en-suite bathrooms. The sumptuous principal bedroom is particularly impressive.

Outside, the low-maintenance garden includes a gravel driveway with plenty of parking space, a large patio for outdoor dining, and a lawn area for a peaceful atmosphere.

This beautiful home combines modern updates with a traditional feel and is ready for new owners to move in and enjoy.
 

SWAFFHAM An historic and thriving market town, Swaffham is situated approximately 15 miles east of King's Lynn and approximately 30 miles from Norwich.

There is 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.

The town has an extremely popular Saturday market and many interesting historic buildings including the parish church and 'The Buttercross'.

The town also boasts a museum which focuses on many different and impressive parts of local history. One key gallery is The Carter Centenary, a chance to learn about Howard Carter, famous for the 1922 discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun - whose extended family lived in Swaffham.

The town offers a great hub for those who wish for a perfect family life. It has a series of schools for different ages, along with being relatively close to other schools including Greshams, Langley Hall and Beeston Hall School

It's also a good base to call home with local activities and entertainment including theatre, open gardens, nature reserves and more.

Swaffham is only around two hours by train to London, with great access to Cambridge and a short journey to Holt, Wells, Brancaster and Burnham Market - as well as the popular little seaside town of Sheringham. Norwich too is quick trip and provides an airport, offering direct flights to Amsterdam.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 18, 2024

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
