North Elmham, Dereham, NR20

abbotFox presents this striking modern chalet, completed in 2022, offering contemporary design, open-plan living and a peaceful, private setting.

Modern Living In A Private Setting - Tucked discreetly to the rear of the original building, this individually designed home is approached through the customer car park into a private driveway, which leads to a detached double garage with electric door. Finished in a combination of cedar cladding and dormer windows, the property immediately impresses with its clean architectural lines and natural textures.

Light-Filled Open-Plan Living - The welcoming reception hall sets the tone, with stairs rising to the first floor and access to a cloakroom. Beyond, double doors open into a superb open-plan living space – the true heart of the home. Here, a generous dining and seating area centres around a wood burning stove, creating a warm focal point. A striking 5-metre expanse of glazing with bi-folding doors floods the room with light and seamlessly connects the indoors to the garden.

A Statement Kitchen - On the opposite side of the living space lies a highly impressive kitchen, designed with both function and style in mind. A collection of sleek navy blue units sit beneath solid oak work surfaces, complemented by a central island with granite counter and breakfast bar. A suite of NEFF appliances – including double oven, 5-ring hob, full height fridge and freezer, dishwasher and twin bowl sink – completes this well-considered space. An adjacent utility room provides additional storage and plumbing for appliances.

Flexible Accommodation - The ground floor also features a versatile study/playroom, ideal for home working or family use. Upstairs, three bedrooms are arranged around the landing. The principal bedroom offers a sense of indulgence with its generous proportions and dressing area, while the remaining two bedrooms provide comfortable double accommodation. A luxurious four-piece family bathroom completes the first floor.

The Perfect Blend Of Style And Practicality - Finished to a high specification and designed for modern lifestyles, this unique home combines striking architectural details with everyday functionality. With a detached double garage, landscaped garden access via bi-fold doors, and flexible living spaces, it provides the perfect balance of comfort, style and convenience.
