Description
Amongst the finest of conversions to be found in the area, this remarkable 19th Century schoolhouse has been lovingly reimagined to now provide an extraordinary two bedroom residence boasting a rich character and a luxurious finish throughout. Bold architecture has been coupled with a sympathetic eye for detail and the result is a truly idiosyncratic home nestled in an enviable location. Short strolls will take you to the thriving village centre whilst the property itself sits on the doorstep of the idyllic Caen Meadow – a magical open space on the banks of the River Bure providing long walks and river access for those looking for a waterborne lifestyle.
The ground floor is primarily dedicated to the breath-taking open plan reception housing the contemporary kitchen; a wonderful juxtaposition to the original brick mullion windows the adorn this impressive space. The large breakfast bar island lends itself to sociable hosting whilst ample space for a dining table caters for more traditional dining affairs. As one ventures further into the main reception, the seating area sits under the watch of the striking spiral staircase and galleried. A well equipped utility and ground floor shower room take care of the practicalities.
To the first floor, two generous double bedrooms are found, with one currently serving as a charming twin room. The striking principal bedroom enjoys all the drama of the fully vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers as well as a Juliet balcony to swing open and beckon in the fresh riverside air. Both bedrooms are well served by the luxurious family shower room.
Outside, the home is graced by a superb and sheltered dining terrace, enveloped by well stocked and thriving flower beds. Ample off road parking is allocated to the home for up to three cards whilst the large timber shed provides invaluable storage for both practical necessities and of course recreational items with which to make the very best of such a perfect location close to such a famous stretch of water.
WROXHAM
Situated a short commute away from Norwich with its many amenities, Wroxham is renowned for its boating culture. Standing on the river Bure, the village is divided by the river and shares its many attractions with the neighbouring Hoveton St John. Whether on the water or congregating in the busy pubs and restaurants on offer, there is something that will capture the heart of everyone. If you choose to hire a boat, you can travel at a leisurely pace along the broads and moor up at one of the local pubs. The Ferry Inn at Horning serves food all day and offers a fantastic outdoor space and plenty of mooring.
If you would rather stay on dry land, you can wander through the riverside park and feed the ducks, enjoy afternoon tea at one of the quaint tea rooms or simply sit and watch the boats go by in a sunshine filled pub garden.
The Bure Valley railway, which started in 1900, begins its journey in the centre of Wroxham. Both a steam and diesel train run the 18 mile round trip, taking you on a tour of pretty Norfolk villages and ending in Aylsham.
A fun family day out can be had at Wroxham Barns where crafts activities and a Junior Zoo are two of the many activities to enjoy, finishing off with a piece of homemade cake or perhaps a Norfolk brewed cider. For sailing enthusiasts, the Norfolk Broads Yacht Club is situated close by, offering a large club house, ample mooring and many organised events for both members and guests.
A gem in the Norfolk countryside, Wroxham offers plenty to see and do, whilst being easily accessible by car, train, bus and perhaps even boat from Norwich and the coast.
