VIEWINGS STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT.

WINDSOR HOUSE

Windsor House is an exceptional, detached home. Its striking design features a unique central turret, which serves as a grand entrance hall.

The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen, which occupies a third of the ground floor and offers space for both a dining table and seating area, making it ideal for family living.

Adjacent is a generous reception room, made to feel even larger by embracing the double-height central tower, creating a sense of space and grandeur. Full width bi-fold doors open out to the garden, seamlessly joining the inside and out. There is also a formal dining room and a versatile study, ideal for those that work from home if not commuting.

Upstairs, five double bedrooms are arranged around the impressive central landing, four of which enjoying their own en-suites. The fifth bedroom could serve as a snug or an additional study.

In addition to the integrated double garage, Windsor House offers off road parking and a wrap-around south and west facing garden, overlooking open farmland.

Ideally positioned for easy access to London, this grand home is a perfect base for those who work remotely but want the option to travel to the city. Its blend of luxury and practicality offers the ideal lifestyle for those seeking both a stunning family home and a peaceful retreat.

DOCKING

Docking is arguably one of Norfolk's best hideaways, just four miles from the sea yet a comfortable breeze away from the coastal crowds in the heat of summer, and within a comfortable drive of the market towns of Fakenham and elegant Holt.

Dating back to Saxon times, Docking is one of Norfolk's highest points at 272ft and was once known as 'Dry Docking', because of its lack of drinking water. A well was sunk in the village in the 18th century and residents paid a farthing per bucket until a mains supply was installed in 1936. The small village played a key role in World War II when the RAF Docking airfield operated between 1940-1958, and nearby Docking Hall housed serving actors Richard Burton, Robert Hardy and Warren Mitchell during this time.

Today, a strong village community exists and Docking has a thriving nursery and primary school, and the heart-warming sound of young children enjoying playtime often echoes in the surrounding streets, as it has for centuries. Well-serviced, Docking also has a GP surgery, village store with Post Office, playing field, tennis court and bowling green, along with a popular fish and chip shop and good local, The Railway Inn.

Buyers are spoilt for choice with a wide range of property including traditional, brick and flint and whitewashed cottages, classic Georgian houses and a growing range of quality new-build homes.

You may be inspired to try your hand at The Good Life and grow your own, but if you lack a green thumb try the weekly farmer's market at the village's Ripper Memorial Hall. Held on Wednesday mornings, shoppers come from far afield to fill their baskets with super-fresh produce from local smallholders and jars and delicacies from Norfolk artisan producers. Offering the best of coast and country, it's easy to see why Docking is such a sought-after spot.
