Description

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of mid-Norfolk, Fornost is a well-appointed home that has been lovingly held by the same family since it was built in the 1970s. A much-loved residence, it offers wonderfully versatile accommodation across two floors, blending space, comfort and a true sense of home.

Stepping into the welcoming reception hall, you are drawn into the beautifully light-filled sitting room, where a striking teak parquet floor and dual-aspect views over the garden create a warm and elegant space. This flows effortlessly into the dining room, which in turn leads to the garden room – a delightful spot to relax and take in the changing seasons. The kitchen provides excellent storage and workspace, with room for a breakfast table, making it the heart of everyday living. A versatile family room lends itself perfectly to a home office, playroom or hobby space, while the utility room and separate cloakroom add to the home’s practicality.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, offer peaceful retreats, with one enjoying its own dressing room and en suite shower room. A further family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The first-floor views are truly breathtaking, with rolling countryside stretching out on two sides, offering a daily connection to nature and stunning sunsets across the Norfolk landscape.

Recent improvements to the property include a newly installed boiler and oil tank within the last year, helping to enhance energy efficiency and potentially improve the EPC rating. These updates add peace of mind and modern performance to an already well-maintained home.

Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing parking and access to a detached double garage. The south-westerly garden is a delight, with established planting, a vegetable patch, herb garden, a variety of specimen trees, a terrace for outdoor dining and mature boundary hedging ensuring privacy.

A home of character, space and tranquillity, Fornost is ready to welcome its next chapter.
