Description
As you step into the main house, you're greeted by an entrance hall adorned with vaulted ceilings and a curved mezzanine balcony, setting a tone of grandeur and sophistication.
The ground floor features a carefully considered layout incorporating six receptions - to one end is a bespoke kitchen with large central island that gently divides the open-plan aspect, as it extends into a breakfast room. A separate dining room is ideal for more formal or seasonal gatherings.
Through the centre and for those who may be remote working or home studying, there is a bright office with french doors, and the neighbouring family room provides a place for solace and relaxation.
To the opposite end, the sitting room with bi-fold doors invites the outdoors in, and a games room offers endless entertainment possibilities featuring a further set of bi-folds to invite and amplify the sense connectivity and satisfying flow felt throughout. Come the winter months, an additional snug room is a pleasant extra retreat, whilst back in the sitting room a cosy log-burner radiates warmth and ambiance through the space - perfect for chilly evenings spent in the comfort of home.
Upstairs, there are six bedrooms, three of which have their own en-suite. Two suites also feature walk-through dressing rooms, with the principal offering the added luxury of a balcony overlooking the fabulous landscaped garden and woodland beyond. All bedrooms have access to a bathroom with a separate bath and shower, ensuring comfort and convenience for every member of the household.
In addition to the main house, an accompanying three bedroom single-storey annexe provides flexible living arrangements, featuring an open-plan kitchen/family room with french doors opening to the outdoors. The annexe offers the versatility to use one of the bedrooms as a sitting room, also with french doors for seamless indoor-outdoor living.
Further enhancing this exceptional property is a separate outbuilding with store room, studio, and gym to serve creative pursuits or fitness activities.
Meticulous attention to detail and design is evident both internally and externally with the main house having been extended sympathetically to retain the 'chocolate box' kerb appeal of local cottages, whilst the additional outbuildings are styled to appear as an accompanying coach house with stables.
Located just over the road from the King's Lynn Golf Course and within easy reach of the picturesque North Norfolk coast and Royal Sandringham Estate, as well as the historic market town of King's Lynn with its old town and quayside delights, this residence offers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and urban convenience.
Don't miss the opportunity to make this exquisitely modernised sanctuary your own, where every detail has been carefully crafted to provide the ultimate luxury living experience. Schedule a viewing today and prepare to be captivated by the charm and elegance of this remarkable property.
CASTLE RISING Within an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with a wealth of history including one of the most famous 12th century castles in England with the keep being amongst the finest surviving examples in the country. The historic village of Castle Rising also offers a tea room, dentist, dress shop and a pub, whilst being conveniently located just on the outskirts of King's Lynn.
Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King's Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.
King Street, which runs from Tuesday Market Place to the Custom House, was once known as 'Stockfish Row' for the number of fish merchants that lived there. With a listed building every 26ft, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England.
With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour's drive and a direct rail line into London King's Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King's Lynn continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route. It's easy to see the appeal of this central location with a clutch of high street retailers and independent restaurants in the town's Vancouver Centre. The Majestic Cinema and King's Lynn Alive Corn Exchange are the place to catch a film or show, or check out what's on at St George's Guildhall, the UK's largest surviving medieval guildhall, today a vibrant arts centre.
A stunning cluster of Georgian architecture sits to the west of town and the streets surrounding The Walks, a Grade II listed, 17-hectare park where elegant folk once promenaded. Families still enjoy weekend walk or a Sunday concert in the park and don't miss The Red Mount, once a wayside stop for pilgrims headed to the shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham, to take in the incredible, elevated views.
