Description

The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Pearces Farmhouse, a beautiful Grade II Listed seventeenth century traditional farmhouse, privately tucked away in the most delightful of rural surroundings on the outskirts of Hingham. The house offers well proportioned and characterful accommodation, displaying a wealth of original and restored features throughout. The property occupies private and well-maintained grounds of around 0.6 acres (stms), with south facing gardens which back onto miles of open farmland. To the front of the house there is a gated courtyard, which houses over 2,400 sq.ft. of versatile brick and flint outbuildings, some of which have been recently refurbished for commercial use.

The property is peacefully nestled in the Norfolk countryside, surrounded by land owned and farmed by the Seamere Estate, with unspoilt countryside views in every direction and miles of walks from the doorstep. The centre of Hingham is only a 5-minute car journey away and provides a range of amenities, including a family butcher, a popular pub, cafe's, a library, a primary school and doctor's surgery, as well as offering a frequent bus service around the area. Norwich is around a 30-minute drive to the east, whilst the nearby market towns of Attleborough and Wymondham are approximately 6 miles away, where the A11 can be joined to provide access to a wider network of transport links.

ACCOMMODATION.
Visitors are welcomed into the reception hall where the original pamment floor tiles are still on display, as they are throughout much of the ground floor. To the side of the hall, there is an opening into one of two main reception rooms (listed as the lounge), with a beamed ceiling and an original fireplace which houses a woodburning stove. From the lounge, a lobby area with fitted bookcases leads through to the sitting room, which is another versatile space with timber floorboards and an impressive brick inglenook fireplace.
The farmhouse style kitchen comprises a collection of storage units under solid oak work surfaces, with a central Island unit/breakfast bar and a Heritage range cooker, which also provides central heating and hot water. Off the kitchen there is a useful utility area which in turn leads through to the original dairy, which is now used as the dining room. The dining room displays a stunning array of original timber work, including a 17th century mullioned window which overlooks the rear garden.
Upstairs there are four double bedrooms arranged around the landing, as well as the stylishly appointed family bathroom. Throughout the bedrooms there are a variety of original features, including fireplaces, and oak floorboards, as well as some exceptional views of the surrounding countryside.

OUTSIDE & OUTBUILDINGS.
Pearces Farmhouse is situated at the end of a private access road, which is shared with one other property. A wrought iron gate opens on to a large front courtyard, which is mainly laid to shingle, providing plenty of space for vehicles and other machinery. The courtyard is flanked on both sides by original brick and flint barns. The buildings to the east provide useful open-fronted and lockable storage, whilst the building on the west of the site has undergone an extensive programme of renovation for commercial use. This building has been clad with vertical cedar boards and includes a fully functioning workshop with a ventilation system, a reception/seating area and two large rooms, both with fully glazed doors opening to the garden. The space has been fully rewired and reroofed, with exposed brickwork and painted concrete floors. The building offers endless opportunities, whether for business use or as superb storage space.

The gardens to the property extend to the sides and rear of the house, where there is a pretty kitchen garden with box hedging and a fully fenced dog training enclosure, along with neatly maintained lawns and a variety of mature trees.

SERVICES.
The property is connected to mains electricity and water supply. Oil-fired central heating to radiators. Private drainage.
