4 bedroom detached house for sale

Set within approximately 2.65 acres (stms) on the edge of open countryside, this is a property defined by scale, presence and capability. Extending to over 3700 sq. ft (stms) of internal accommodation, alongside in excess of 5500 sq. ft of outbuildings and garaging, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home that effortlessly bridges refined residential living with exceptional operational versatility.

Positioned within Mundham Common, the setting offers a true sense of rural seclusion, yet remains remarkably well connected with Norwich, Loddon and the Norfolk/Suffolk coastline all within easy reach. This is a location that delivers both lifestyle and practicality in equal measure.

The approach sets the tone. Electric gates open onto a sweeping driveway, framed by mature planting and seasonal colour, leading to an expansive parking and turning area. The house itself sits confidently within its plot, with open lawns stretching away and countryside views forming a constant backdrop.

Internally, the property has evolved over time to create a home of real substance and architectural interest. The entrance hall immediately sets the tone flooded with natural light via full height glazing, with contemporary tiled flooring and a sense of volume that creates a striking first impression. It acts as a central spine to the home, from which the principal rooms flow with ease.

The accommodation is both extensive and highly adaptable, with five reception rooms arranged to suit both formal entertaining and everyday family life. The sitting room provides a refined focal point, enhanced by a large floor-to-ceiling window which draws in views of the pictursque garden. A feature fireplace houses an inset AGA wood burner, while part of the room benefits from a vaulted ceiling an architectural detail that adds both character and a greater sense of space.

Centrally positioned, the family room offers a more relaxed and versatile environment, perfectly suited to modern living and seamlessly connecting the main living spaces. The formal dining room sits to the front, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the grounds, whilst the garden room delivers a more contemporary feel with a glazed roof lantern and full height windows allowing light to pour in throughout the day. Twin doors open directly onto the raised terrace, where a sunken hot tub area creates a natural extension of the living space ideal for entertaining or unwinding whilst enjoying the surrounding countryside.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both visually striking and exceptionally well considered a space designed not only for cooking, but for gathering, entertaining and everyday living. A comprehensive range of bespoke cabinetry is paired with granite work surfaces, whilst a substantial central island anchors the room, providing both preparation space and informal seating. The layout has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise both flow and usability, with wide opening connecting seamlessly into the adjoining breakfast/dining areas. A traditional AGA takes centre stage, adding both character and practicality, complemented by a wine cooler. The overall finish strikes a balance between classic and contemporary, creating a kitchen that feels both timeless and highly functional.

Flowing directly from the kitchen, the breakfast area provides a more relaxed setting for day-to-day living, with ample space for dining and unwinding. A further wood burner introduces warmth and atmosphere, reinforcing this as a true hub of the home equally suited to quiet mornings as it is to informal entertaining.

Supporting spaces have been equally well planned, with a generously proportioned utility room designed to house the home’s day-to-day appliances. With space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher and fridge freezer, this area keeps the main kitchen clean, uncluttered and highly functional. Two ground floor W.C.’s further enhance practicality, ensuring the home performs effortlessly behind the scenes as well as it does visually.

Upstairs, four double bedrooms continue the sense of proportion. Two are served by en-suite facilities, while the principal suite enjoys a dual aspect with views across the grounds. A further bedroom is complemented by a dressing room, and a well-appointed four piece family bathroom completes the accommodation. Off the landing, a large walk-in airing cupboard provides excellent additional storage and practicality.

Externally, the grounds are as compelling as the house itself. Lawned gardens wrap around the property, interspersed with established trees and planting, while a raised terrace provides a natural setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

However, it is the scale and quality of the outbuildings that elevate this property into a different category entirely.

Extending to over 5500 sq. ft, the range includes multiple garages, extensive workshop space, storage buildings, a dedicated home office and a substantial triple carport. The configuration offers immediate usability for those requiring secure storage, workspace or operational capacity, whilst equally lending itself to alternative uses from vehicle collections to lifestyle or leisure-led adaptations.

There has previously been planning considered for the transformation of part of this space into a leisure complex, incorporating a pool and entertainment suite, demonstrating the long-term potential available within the footprint (stpp).
