Little Ellingham

The Granary is a truly impressive barn conversion, beautifully set within just under half an acre (STMS) of landscaped gardens. Stylishly presented throughout, the property effortlessly combines rustic character with modern comfort, creating a warm and welcoming home ideal for both full-time living and weekend escapes.

Full of charm, the well-appointed accommodation spans two floors and showcases a wealth of character features, including exposed timbers, cast-iron radiators, wooden doors, and a lovely wooden floor. From the entrance hall, a handy utility cupboard leads the way into a spacious and light-filled kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a generous range of wall and base units and offering ample space for informal dining. A separate cloakroom adds further convenience.

The standout sitting room is a wonderful space for relaxing or entertaining, with a central wood-burning stove, stable door to the garden, and lovely views over the grounds. From the inner hall, a small staircase leads to two comfortable, ground floor bedrooms which are served by a newly refurbished bathroom complete with underfloor heating.

Upstairs, a versatile study area provides a quiet spot for home working or reading, while the principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room.

Outside, a gravelled driveway provides ample parking and leads to the garaging, while a pedestrian gate opens to a paved path and front lawn framed by herbaceous borders. To the rear, the garden is mainly laid to lawn with flower beds, boundary hedging, a summer house and a generous paved patio – perfect for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful setting.

The Granary combines countryside charm, thoughtful design and generous outside space to create a truly special home.

LITTLE ELLINGHAM
North of Attleborough and west of Wymondham, Little Ellingham is a charming village first recorded in the Domesday Book with just 19 households. Though it has grown over the centuries, it still offers a peaceful, rural lifestyle with easy access to nearby towns and transport links—ideal for those looking to unwind at the end of the working day.

At the village edge, St Peter’s Church stands out with its rare square south-side tower—one of only nine in Norfolk—alongside striking French-style stained glass and a glossy brown font, restored with support from Edward VII. Nearby, the Italianate Clock Tower, built in 1885 as a folly to the Hall, adds a whimsical landmark to the countryside.

Little Ellingham’s larger neighbours, Attleborough and Wymondham, offer everything from supermarkets and restaurants to fitness facilities and schools. Gaymers Park in Attleborough is perfect for a relaxed workout, while Wymondham Abbey offers a lively programme of arts and spiritual events. Shoppers will appreciate Wymondham’s Waitrose and garden centre.

Families are well served by Wymondham College, an outstanding state day and boarding school set on a striking former airbase, now a leading educational site drawing pupils from across the country.

Combining village tranquillity with lifestyle convenience, Little Ellingham is a hidden gem with period homes, generous plots and excellent links to Norwich and beyond—offering the best of both worlds.
