With feature-packed accommodation stretching to over 2,500 sq. ft., showcasing a wealth of history and versatility, this home boasts all the character one could hope for, whilst offering the versatility and flexibility required to accompany the ever-changing demands of modern family life.
To the ground floor, traditional receptions adorned with exposed timbers and inglenook fireplaces are found alongside rooms offering a more modern way of life, including the kitchen/breakfast room with lovely views of the rear garden. Finishing off the ground floor is a shower room and bedroom, cementing The Old Bakery's status as a truly versatile period home.
To the first floor, three spacious double bedrooms are found alongside a sweet smaller single/nursery or even dressing room. Bedroom three can be accessed via the principal bedroom but also has its own independent access via a separate staircase off the sitting room. All bedrooms enjoy every bit as much character as you could hope for, with yet more exposed timbers, original floorboards, and many panelled and latched doors. A central family bathroom to the first floor serves the first-floor bedrooms.
A wonderful addition to the accommodation on offer is the enviable garden studio/annexe, making for an idyllic detached workspace or even guest accommodation. Currently serving as a peaceful workspace, the en-suite shower room makes for a brilliantly versatile addition to a truly noteworthy home.
With off-road parking and a garage found to the side of the property, the large rear garden provides a sunny oasis where the sprawling terrace gives way to the well-kept lawn, interspersed with thriving flower beds and mature shrubs. The sprawling lawn offers ample space for younger family members to stretch their legs whilst the sun-trap terrace makes for the perfect BBQ spot to while away long afternoons with the rest of friends and family. The property is situated within a conservation area.
SAXLINGHAM NETHERGATE At the centre of Saxlingham Nethergate sits a historic war memorial on a village green. The memorial is surrounded by a mixture of thatched cottages and listed buildings, creating a picturesque village setting. There's also a primary school, and active cricket and bowls clubs. Boudicca Way, named after the Iceni warrior queen, passes through the village and provides a 36 mile walking route through south Norfolk countryside, linking Norwich and Diss. Just 9 miles south of the city, Saxlingham Nethergate is perfectly placed for commuting, whether it's into Norwich, or south to Cambridge and London.
The historic city of Norwich has everything you would desire of a vibrant regional capital. Its perfectly preserved medieval streets are home to a thriving community of small businesses, a vibrant food scene and an established arts culture. Strolling through the historic cobbled streets of Elm Hill, whatever the season, the Tudor architecture retains its character and beauty. Laced with merchant's houses, thatching, individual homes, speciality shops and small cafes, you'll be led toward the 1,000-year-old Norwich Cathedral.
To the west of the city the University of East Anglia is a remarkable example of brutalist architecture, and the campus is also home to the Sainsbury centre, a permanent collection of modern and ethnographic art, gifted by the Sainsbury family. There are also a number of sought after schools and colleges.
It is also a gateway to a county that continues to inspire people with its unspoilt landscapes, open spaces and big skies. When the bright lights call, trains to Liverpool Street take just 90 minutes, and the city's airport flies to a number of UK destinations, as well as direct to Amsterdam.
This is a city that reveals itself the longer you stay - a city to fall in love with - a city to be a part of.
