4 bed detached house for sale

Newton Road, Hainford, Norwich, Norfolk NR10

Renovated, stylish cottage in grounds of about an acre

Description
Orchard Cottage is a charming detached period home dating back to the 1700s, which has been thoughtfully renovated and refurbished by the current owners. The property offers a spacious, characterful home with a modern twist, presenting a wonderful opportunity to acquire a highly individual family residence-equally ideal for couples seeking a peaceful countryside retreat.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall and a generous kitchen/breakfast room featuring bespoke wooden cabinets set beneath stunning granite work surfaces. A Rayburn stove provides a quintessential country-kitchen focal point. Opening into the breakfast area, this space forms a sociable and functional heart of the home.

The large sitting room-formerly two separate rooms-now offers an expansive living area with a feature fireplace and double doors leading out to the garden. Connecting both the kitchen and sitting room is a recently constructed garden room extension. This superb space enjoys lovely views across the gardens while offering a sense of privacy. Its contemporary design provides a striking contrast to the period features of the main house, enhancing both the overall appearance and the home’s day-to-day functionality. Warm and inviting, it can be enjoyed throughout the year. A study makes for an ideal working from home environment and a modernised downstairs shower room completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a spacious principal. These are served by a generously sized, modern four piece family bathroom, finished to a high standard and featuring both a bath and a separate shower.

Outside
The property is approached via double gates that offer both privacy and security, leading to a gravelled parking area for several cars and the double garage. A series of useful outbuildings provide excellent scope for further improvement, and (subject to planning) could be converted into an annexe or potential Airbnb. The largest of these-a barn of approximately 30 feet in length-currently serves as an ideal games or party barn, accessed from an attractive courtyard.

Set within a delightful plot of approximately an acre, the grounds are wonderfully mature and enjoy a good degree of privacy. With a mixture of trees, established shrubs, vegetable beds, patio areas, and a nature pond, the garden has its own distinctive character that complements the house beautifully. It offers excellent space for families as well as a true haven for keen gardeners.
