West Raynham

This property is without doubt an ideal family home, located in an area steeped with history and offering spacious accommodation with a wonderful, landscaped garden.

Once an active World War Two airfield, after the war, the site was used by RAF West Raynham, Fighter Command until 1994 when it closed. The Control Tower has recently become a Heritage Centre. The site once housed the officers and subsequently these properties were sold for private ownership, representing wonderful opportunities for generous, family-size living.

Complimented by a neutral palette of décor throughout, this property provides modern and contemporary accommodation. The ground floor provides separate reception spaces, with a bright and spacious dual-aspect living room benefiting from a cosy wood-burning stove, and an interconnected kitchen and dining area leaving space for entertaining all the family!

Nestled well into its plot, the gardens have been beautifully landscaped. With an in and out driveway providing ample parking, a lawn rear garden with raised beds, and a purpose-built home office ideal for those who work from home, or even to double up as a garden room.

This home is move-in ready, suiting a wide array of buyers looking to invest in a little slice of countryside. With field views to the front, and contemporary living throughout, this really is the perfect home.
 

WEST RAYNHAM Nestling in the heart of the north west Norfolk countryside. West Raynham is a sought-after, small historic village, approximately six miles from Fakenham, with a village hall. Unsurprisingly you are made to feel at peace on your approach to the village through the parkland, which includes a stunning tree lined route, overlooking the historic Raynham Hall and church, which was first built in the 11th century and extended in the 14th century. It fell into ruin from the 1720s, but it has since been partially restored and is used occasionally. The parkland makes for excellent dog walking and exploring and not surprisingly there is a strong community spirit.

If you desire the gentle bustle of a market town, Fakenham is approximately five miles away. Out of working hours, there's plenty to keep you entertained including the thriving independent Central Cinema, a perennial favourite with locals, reconnect with nature at Pensthorpe or blow the cobwebs with a walk at nearby Sculthorpe Moor.

For something fancier, dress up to the nines and enjoy a day out and a flutter at Fakenham Racecourse, or team up with your playing pals for a round at Fakenham Golf Club, set in and around the racecourse - if you need to perfect your swing, head to Fakenham Fairways Golf Driving Range which has a PGA professional on hand for some expert coaching. And Thursford is just four miles away with its magnificent collection of steam engines and organs - a visit to its Christmas spectacular gives a West End theatre excursion a run for its money!
