4 bedroom detached house for sale

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this spacious character property, occupying a private and mature plot of around half an acre (stms) on a quiet lane on the outskirts of Briston, just a short drive from the nearby Georgian market town of Holt and the beautiful beaches of the North Norfolk coast beyond. Behind its handsome double bay-fronted red brick façade, Holly House offers a spacious and stylishly presented interior with generous room proportions and a variety of original period features. The property still offers great possibilities to enhance and extend, with stairs leading up to a superb loft space which could easily be converted into additional accommodation.

The property sits to the south of the plot, with established gardens which provide plenty of parking and turning space in front of the house, where there is also a striking Monkey Puzzle tree. The side and rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn, interspersed with a number of established trees, as well as various seating areas and a wildlife pond. There are also a number of useful outbuildings, which include a garage, workshop and a garden store.

We would like to make interested parties aware that the property is available with no onward chain.

ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed through the stained glass front door into a central hall, which extends throughout the ground floor, providing space for coats and shoes alongside the staircase, which rises to the first floor landing. There are two symmetrical bay-fronted reception rooms, the sitting room and formal dining room; both of which enjoy generous proportions and fireplaces. The kitchen/breakfast room has been tastefully modernised to comprise a collection of fitted storage units under solid oak work surfaces with a matching central island/breakfast bar, incorporating a range of integrated appliances. Across the hall from the kitchen there is a neatly appointed ground floor shower room, which also includes a useful utility area with plumbing/space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The adjacent larder provides superb storage space, with original timber shelving.

A door from the kitchen opens out to the conservatory, which is another versatile reception space with pleasant views over the garden. The conservatory has doors out to the garden and an inner door to the useful boot room, which in turn leads through to the home office/studio.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms arranged around the bright and spacious landing, two of which are equipped with fitted wardrobes and fireplaces, with other character features also on display. The bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed 4-piece luxury bathroom, including a free-standing bath and separate 1500mm shower enclosure. From the landing there is also a permanent staircase leading up the loft space, which currently provides fantastic storage space, but could also be converted into additional accommodation if required.
