Description
Set behind a sweeping gravel drive, flanked by a manicured front lawn and framed with timeless Georgian symmetry, Summerhill House captures the imagination. With its grand pillared entrance and enduring kerb appeal, this beautiful family home has been a treasured retreat for the current owners for 14 years.
Inside, a striking central oak staircase anchors the heart of the home, blending traditional features with sleek contemporary finishes. This house balances sophistication with everyday comfort - spacious, elegant, and deeply homely.
To the front, a cosy study offers a perfect spot for working from home or enjoying morning coffee. Across the hall the sitting room features a log burner, transforming it into a winter sanctuary. The formal dining room is ideal for celebrations and cherished for Christmas gatherings.
The stunning solid wood kitchen, with its central island and integrated hob, is designed for sociable cooking. The garden room offers a light-filled space to unwind, extending naturally into the garden through french doors.
Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to five bedrooms, including two principal rooms with dressing rooms and en-suite showers. A modern family bathroom and a fifth single bedroom provide flexibility for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.
Outside, the grounds extend to just over a third of an acre (stms), offering privacy, peace, and space to breathe. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by established planting and featuring a wildflower area attracting butterflies and bees.
To the rear of the plot lies the double garage and an exceptional garden studio, currently used as an art space but easily reimagined as a home office, games room or creative retreat.
There’s a summer house too, perfectly positioned to enjoy long evenings in the garden. From here, the sound of hooves on the nearby road offers a gentle, cherished reminder of the slower pace of village life - a welcomed rhythm in this rural corner of Norfolk.
Located in the historic village of West Walton - mentioned in the Domesday Book and rich with rural charm - Summerhill House offers the perfect blend of countryside living with easy access to nearby market towns and the coast. The surrounding farm tracks and bridleways invite exploration, whether on foot, by bike, or with four-legged companions.
This is a home for every season, a place of laughter, calm and connection - ready for its next chapter to begin.
