Description

The property enjoys an appealing position, with wonderful views over Whitlingham Broad, particularly in winter when the leaves fall and gives uninterrupted views across the southerly-facing garden. The outlook and orientation are among the property's most appealing features together with the extensive improvements that have been made since the owners acquired the property in 2023.

The property is approached via the front into a welcoming reception hall, which provides access to a study, a large utility room with fitted cupboards, and a back hall with further useful storage. The ground floor has been thoughtfully arranged to provide an excellent combination of practical family accommodation and generous living space, including a beautifully renovated and extended kitchen/dining room which opens seamlessly from two points onto the terrace.

The kitchen is a notable feature of the property, fitted with an attractive range of units and integrated appliances, complemented by quartz work surfaces and a central island which provides an excellent focal point. There is an open plan feel here as both the sitting room and kitchen are arranged in an open format with the sitting room enjoying a fireplace with log burner. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the terrace, allowing the gardens and house to flow as one, particularly during the warmer months.

Off the sitting room is a spacious playroom which is equally suitable for a variety of alternative uses, including hobbies, crafts or additional reception space. A further notable feature is the ground floor double bedroom that benefits from its own en-suite facilities and provides an ideal arrangement for guests, or a multi-generational living arrangement.

To the first floor, the landing provides access to three double bedrooms together with a family bathroom and separate WC. The principal bedroom is particularly well appointed, benefiting from two dressing rooms with fitted cupboards and an en-suite shower room. One of the outstanding features to the house is the balcony positioned off the principal bedroom, which captures the views. The views across the second bedroom are also outstanding.

The gardens and grounds act as a major feature of the whole and amount to 0.24 acres (stms) being approached from the front into a large, shingled drive with parking for a number of vehicles. The combination of the attractive outlook, natural light and direct access from the principal living space creates a very natural setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. The gardens provide a wonderful complement to the renovated and extended accommodation, with the views over the surrounding landscape adding to the sense of space and setting.

The property will be of considerable interest to those seeking a substantial and versatile detached home in an established residential location, with beautifully appointed living accommodation. The property is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
