A Fully Refurbished & Extended 4-Bedroom Family Home With An Independent 2-Bedroom Annexe

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer The Granary, an exceptional family home nestled in the peace and tranquillity of the Norfolk countryside, surrounded by open fields and with truly stunning views over its delightful rural surroundings. The property has been completely transformed by the current owners who have restored and refurbished the original building, as well as adding a substantial extension, which bolsters the overall area to just under 4,000 sq./ft. Of internal floor space. The house occupies landscaped grounds of over an acre, including a natural swimming pool and a beautifully maintained lawn which adjoins neighbouring farmland.

The accommodation provides no end of flexibility, with a stunning 40ft open-plan kitchen/dining/living space amongst the many features. There is also an independent 2-bedroom annexe, which has been successfully let out for holidays and short breaks, with the added benefit of being linked to the main house if required. The main house offers living space over three floors, with superb views from the Juliet balcony in the master bedroom on the first floor. In addition, there is also a versatile games room/studio with a shower room, over the triple bay cart shed.
Accommodation

Visitors are welcomed into the spacious entrance hall, with exposed oak beams, an opening into the sitting room and a door leading into the main living space. The living space extends to around 40ft in length and includes a seating area with a woodburning stove and double doors to the front and a central dining area with bi-folding doors opening to the side. The high-quality kitchen comprises and extensive collection of fitted storage units under quartz work surfaces, with a central island which incorporates a breakfast bar with a solid oak counter. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher and wine chiller, along with a freestanding range oven and an American style fridge/freezer. The adjacent utility room, which is still currently under refurbishment, offers a further range of unit units and plumbing/space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

The main sitting room is another generously proportioned family space, with a trio of windows overlooking the gardens to the front and the fields beyond. The room’s main feature is a woodburning stove, as well as a stair staircase which rises to the first floor. To the rear of the sitting room is a useful hallway, where there are doors to a fully refurbished ground floor bathroom, the utility room and an external door opening in from the courtyard garden.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms arranged around the landing, as well as a large built-in airing cupboard and a separate cloakroom. The master bedroom offers the height of luxury, with a Juliet balcony which enjoys stunning westerly views, an ensuite shower room and dressing room. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are both also comfortable double rooms with westerly views. The staircase rises again up to the second floor, where there is a spacious guest bedroom with roof lights to the front and an ensuite shower room.

Annexe & cart shed
The annexe offers great flexibility to the overall package; whether as a holiday let, accommodation for visiting guests or as an extension of the main house, with an interlinking between the two sitting rooms. The annexe provides no shortage of character, with exposed original brick and flint work being complemented by the more recent installations. The accommodation includes a well-proportioned sitting room which leads into a well-equipped kitchen, with a hob and other appliances. Beyond the kitchen is a separate dining room with a door opening out to the courtyard. There are bedrooms on both floors, both of which are comfortable double rooms, with the upstairs bedroom also having an adjoining dressing room or study. The bedrooms are served by a neatly appointed shower room.

An external staircase leads up to another room above the triple cart shed, which measures 24ft in length, is currently used as an additional bedroom, but could be equally suitable for use as a home office, games room or studio, with its own shower room.
Outside

The property is approached from the quiet country lane over a private road, which is shared with one other property. A pair of electrically operated gates open onto a large private driveway, which can accommodate numerous vehicles, between the side of the house and the front of the triple bay cart shed.
Like the interior of the house, the gardens have been completely overhauled by the current owners who have created a wonderful outside space, with various areas of interest and places to sit and enjoy the views throughout the day. The grounds in all amount to around 1.15 acres (stms) and include two expanses of neatly maintained lawn, which extend to the south and west of the house. The most striking feature within the garden is undoubtedly the natural swimming pool, complete with a timber pontoon, which is located to the side of the main seating and entertaining area, which is adjacent to the bi-folding doors in the dining area. There is also an enclosed rear courtyard, as well as a newly constructed pump room for the water filtration system and a large log store.
