Description
The bright and spacious hall sets the scene perfectly for this fine, contemporary home. The high specification kitchen makes a sociable place to cook and a joyful place to entertain, with plenty of space for a dining table and a relaxed seating area. Large sliding doors to the rear are the perfect complement, really bringing the outdoors in.
The sitting room is a stylish room with a fireplace and wood-burning stove, large sliding doors leading to the garden, and atmospheric concealed ceiling lighting to set the mood. In addition, there's a well appointed utility room, cloakroom, and a study or playroom.
The contemporary staircase takes you to the first floor, where the principal suite has it all; a walk-in wardrobe, spacious bedroom and a modern, well-fitted en-suite shower room. In addition there are three further excellent bedrooms, two with sizeable built in wardrobes, and a well-fitted bath and shower room.
Outside, the property offers a superb blend of leisure and practicality. To the front there is plenty of parking. A detached studio is currently used as a gym, and has a separate cloakroom and store, making it ideal for so many uses.
The rear garden is perfect for relaxing and entertaining. There's plenty of space for outdoor seating on the decking, which runs across the entire width of the property. Beyond this, raised planters feature stunning mature olive trees, and there's a lawn and a storage shed. Tucked away perfectly in the corner, a further, more intimate, decked terrace is perfect for a morning coffee, a relaxed glass of wine, or simply for taking time out.
TAVERHAM Just six miles from the county capital, but a world away from the urban bustle, Taverham is a city commuter's dream, with easy access to the A47 for cross-country routes. But to see this pretty village as a suburban spot misses the charm of this much sought-after historic place, voted the fourth best place to live in 2015.
Local landmark Taverham Mill was once a major producer of paper which was used to produce The Times newspaper, Oxford English Dictionary and even banknotes for the Bank of England, before the mill's closure in 1899. Now the 100-acre site is a picturesque nature reserve with walks and four lakes fondly fished by anglers for carp, trench, roach, perch and pike.
The Marriott's Way, a 26-mile footpath, bridleway and cycle route, between Aylsham and Norwich runs through the village, and the paths are popular with families for weekend walks, runners and horse riders enjoying the rural setting and wildlife.
Past and present, education has played an important part in the village's history with a school established as early as the 13th century, and today there is an excellent choice of local primary and secondary schools along with a small independent, Langley Prep School.
With Norwich's shopping centres just a few miles away, the village has its own country shopping centre and garden nursery, along with a Tesco supermarket, GP surgery, chemist, library, golf course, country club and local pub. Close enough to the city, yet a rural idyll with amenities and excellent schools, it's easy to see why Taverham is as popular as the pollsters say.
