DESCRIPTION
Set in the heart of Aylsham’s historic Market Place, this elegant Grade II listed home is a beautifully preserved piece of local heritage. Built in 1847, Repton House blends classic architectural features with generous living space, all within walking distance of the town's vibrant shops, cafes, and amenities.
Behind its handsome façade, the property offers a spacious layout with high ceilings, sash windows, fireplaces, and other period details throughout. A rare opportunity to own a distinctive and character-rich residence in one of Norfolk’s most sought-after market towns.
__________
GROUND FLOOR
Upon entering through the beautiful stained glass front door, you're welcomed into a spacious entrance hall featuring tall ceilings, ornate cornicing, and a decorative ceiling rose—all setting the tone for the period charm throughout the home. Directly ahead, through an archway, is a coat and boot cupboard offering ample storage. To the right lies the elegant dining room, a well-proportioned space with dual-aspect sash windows framing views of the nearby church. The intricate cornicing and ceiling rose continue here, enhancing the room's classic character.
Moving along the hallway, past the staircase and an under-stairs cupboard, you'll find the breakfast room to the left and the kitchen to the right. The breakfast room is a light-filled space, with Velux windows and more beautiful stained glass adding warmth and colour. There is a door providing direct access to the garden.
The kitchen is a handmade wooden design, fitted with integrated appliances and an induction hob. A sash window offers a stunning view of the church, creating an inspiring space to cook and gather.
At the rear of the house is the fabulous sitting room, a generous and inviting space with large windows overlooking the garden. Again, the ceiling rose, and cornicing continue, tying the living areas together in timeless style. Completing the ground floor is a practical laundry/storage room, along with a downstairs W.C. and shower room.
__________
FIRST FLOOR
Ascending the staircase, you’re immediately greeted with charming views of the church, framed beautifully through the landing windows. The generous landing is filled with natural light and enhances the sense of space at the heart of the upper floor. To the left is the main bedroom, a spacious and serene room with built-in storage and dual-aspect windows, including one offering further uninterrupted views of the church. A second, equally well-proportioned bedroom also benefits from dual-aspect sash windows and features a charming, panelled ceiling, adding to the period character of the home. The third bedroom, currently used as a home office, enjoys a lovely view of the church and offers ample space to function comfortably as a single bedroom or nursery, depending on needs. Completing the first floor is a good-sized family bathroom, fitted with a bath, bidet, basin, and W.C.
__________
OUTSIDE
Repton House boasts a beautifully established garden, thoughtfully landscaped with mature planting and raised beds brimming with hydrangeas and seasonal colour. The garden enjoys a skyline view of the church, creating a peaceful and picturesque backdrop.
A generous patio area offers the perfect spot to relax or entertain, whether soaking up the summer sunshine or enjoying the cooler winter evenings. An adjustable awning provides shade during warmer days, making the space truly versatile year-round. To the rear, a single garage offers parking for a small car along with a separate storeroom—ideal for bikes, tools, or garden equipment.
At the front, the property is set behind attractive wrought-iron railings, with a spacious forecourt that opens directly onto Aylsham’s historic Market Place.
