Location Tunstead is a well-regarded Broadland village located approximately 10.5 miles north-east of Norwich. Known locally for its unique distinction of once hosting the county's only dual carriageway, the village offers a charming blend of rural tranquillity and community spirit.

At the heart of Tunstead is the highly-rated Tunstead Primary School, positioned next to the appealing Old School House. Residents also benefit from a Recreation Ground and the Horse & Groom pub & restaurant.

Approaching the village, you'll find the renowned Wroxham Barns a popular destination featuring a café, restaurant, and an array of independent craft shops, perfect for weekend browsing or family outings.

Just 2.7 miles away lies Wroxham, often referred to as the capital of the Norfolk Broads. Set along the River Bure, Wroxham offers a wide selection of amenities including supermarkets, banks, a building society, and a variety of independent stores. The town also provides schooling up to age 16, with further education available in nearby North Walsham (6 miles), which caters to students up to 18 years of age. Locally there are two nearby Parkruns held every Saturday at North Walsham High School and Blickling Hall, a National Trust Property. Fantastic for getting fit, mental well being or just getting to know the local community by running or volunteering.

Both Wroxham and North Walsham offer convenient transport links, including bus and rail services to Norwich and Cromer – the latter located 15 miles away on the stunning North Norfolk Coast.

Description Originally constructed as the Headmaster's residence for the adjoining Primary School, The Old School House is a well-established detached home that has been thoughtfully converted and extended to offer spacious and well-presented accommodation. Benefitting from oil-fired central heating, uPVC double glazed windows and external doors, and cavity wall insulation, the property blends traditional charm with modern practicality.

Having recently undergone some redecoration and new carpeting in several areas, the interior is bright, fresh, and ready to move into. The layout is generous, with well-proportioned rooms throughout. The first floor, in particular, enjoys an abundance of natural light and far-reaching views over the school playing field and open countryside beyond.

The ground floor opens into a spacious reception hall, where a cloakroom offers potential to be reconfigured to include a shower cubicle creating the opportunity for an en-suite to the adjacent study/home office. This flexible room could easily serve as a ground floor bedroom, ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

The sitting room is a comfortable and inviting space, featuring an open fireplace and patio doors that lead out to the rear garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed with oak-fronted units and a central island incorporating a breakfast bar. Beyond, a separate dining room also enjoys direct access to the garden, making it perfect for entertaining.

Upstairs, three double bedrooms provide excellent family accommodation. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room with both fitted and built-in wardrobes, as well as an en-suite shower room. The family bathroom has been refitted with a stylish white period-style suite, and its layout offers scope to incorporate a separate shower cubicle if desired.

Outside, the property enjoys attractive gardens to both front and rear. The front offers ample parking and is framed by two magnificent oak trees, while the rear garden features a generous paved patio ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation and backs directly onto the school playing field, enhancing the sense of space and privacy.

If you're seeking a well-presented family home with character, flexibility, and excellent access to both the City and the Coast, The Old School House deserves your attention.
