5 bedroom detached house for sale

Lark House is a substantial and highly versatile village home, offering generous accommodation, attractive countryside views and a practical layout well suited to modern family living. Set on a plot of approximately one third of an acre within the south Norfolk village of Rockland St Peter, the property combines space, flexibility and everyday convenience, with excellent access to local amenities and the A11. The house further benefits from five solar panels positioned to the rear, contributing to improved energy efficiency and reduced running costs

Extending to over 3,000 sq. ft. of internal accommodation, the house has been carefully arranged to balance open-plan living with more traditional reception spaces. At its centre is a well-proportioned open-plan kitchen and dining room, positioned to enjoy views across the mature rear garden and the open fields beyond. This is a bright, sociable room that works equally well for day-to-day family life and for entertaining, with a strong visual connection to the garden and rural backdrop. A separate utility room sits conveniently off the kitchen, providing practical laundry and storage space, while a downstairs WC adds further everyday convenience for family living and guests.

Complementing the kitchen-diner are three separate reception rooms, providing a high degree of flexibility. These include a generous sitting room featuring a large inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and characterful focal point. The remaining reception rooms can be used as a family room, formal dining room or home offices, allowing the layout to adapt easily to changing needs. In addition, a large garden room further enhances the accommodation, offering an excellent connection to the rear garden and countryside beyond and providing a versatile space suitable for relaxing, entertaining or home working throughout the year.

The bedroom accommodation is equally well considered. Four of the bedrooms are comfortable double rooms, three of which benefit from en-suite facilities, making them ideal for family members or visiting guests who value privacy and independence. A fifth bedroom adds further versatility and could be used as a study, nursery or additional guest room if required. The arrangement supports both busy family routines and more private, flexible living, including the potential for multigenerational use.

Outside, the property continues to impress. The rear garden is mature and well established, offering a good degree of privacy while backing directly onto open fields. The outlook is distinctly rural and provides an attractive setting for outdoor dining, children’s play or simply enjoying the changing seasons. The size of the plot allows for practical use without feeling overwhelming, striking a balance between manageable gardens and generous outdoor space.

To the front and side of the house, there is ample off-road parking, complemented by a double cart lodge and an additional workshop. These outbuildings add significant practical value, offering storage, workspace or hobby areas, and will appeal to buyers requiring flexibility beyond the main house.

Rockland St Peter is a well-regarded south Norfolk village with a strong sense of community. The property lies close to Rock All Saints Primary School, a village shop with post office and a local public house, making day-today life both convenient and sociable. Road links are also a key advantage, with easy access to the A11 providing connections to Norwich and the wider region.

Lark House represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a spacious and adaptable village home, combining generous accommodation, rural views and a well-connected location, ideal for families or those seeking space to live and work with ease.
