Set within a small private gated community on the outskirts of Swaffham, this substantial five-bedroom home combines generous family accommodation with an impressive specification and excellent energy efficiency. Extending to approximately 2,345 sq ft across two floors, there is a real sense of space throughout, complemented by a double garage, generous driveway and private west-facing garden.

At the heart of the home is the fabulous kitchen, dining and family room, a genuinely sociable space designed around modern family life and overlooking the rear garden. It is equally suited to everyday living and entertaining, while the adjoining utility keeps the practicalities neatly separate. A substantial sitting room provides a more relaxed setting, with the additional snug offering valuable flexibility as a home office, playroom or second reception room.

Upstairs, five bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family and guests. The principal bedroom is particularly well considered, enjoying its own private en-suite and walk-in wardrobe, while Bedrooms 1 and 2 share a further Shared en-suite. Together with the family bathroom, this creates a particularly practical arrangement for a larger household, without compromising bedroom space.

The specification is equally important. Solar pv, air source heating and zoned underfloor heating to the ground floor contribute towards the impressive ‘A’ rated energy efficiency, combining lower-energy living with the comfort expected of a contemporary new home. Quality finishes throughout reinforce the sense that this is a house designed not only to look good, but to work well for everyday family life.

Outside, the generous brick weave driveway provides ample parking and leads to the detached double garage, while the private west-facing rear garden provides an appealing outdoor space positioned to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. The gated setting adds another dimension, creating a tucked-away environment while remaining conveniently positioned for Swaffham and its amenities.

Finished to an outstanding standard and backed by a 10-year icw new home warranty, this is a sizeable and highly efficient family home where space, specification and flexibility come together particularly well.

Swaffham
An historic and thriving market town, Swaffham is situated approximately 15 miles east of King’s Lynn and approximately 30 miles from Norwich.

There is an extensive range of local amenities including a Waitrose, Tesco, Asda, further shops, pubs and restaurants, three doctors surgeries and primary, secondary and higher schools together with a variety of leisure and sports activities including an excellent golf club.

The town has an extremely popular Saturday market and many interesting historic buildings including the parish church and ‘The Buttercross’.

There’s also a town museum which focuses on many different and impressive parts of local history. One key gallery is The Carter Centenary, a chance to learn about Howard Carter, famous for the 1922 discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun - whose extended family lived in Swaffham.

The town offers a great hub for those who wish for a perfect family life. It has a series of schools for different ages, along with being relatively close to other schools including Greshams, Langley Hall and Beeston Hall School

It’s also a good base to call home with local activities and entertainment including theatre, open gardens, nature reserves and more.

Swaffham is only around two hours by train to London, with great access to Cambridge and a short journey to Holt, Wells, Brancaster and Burnham Market - as well as the popular little seaside town of Sheringham. Norwich too is quick trip and provides an airport, offering direct flights to Amsterdam.
