DESCRIPTION
Entering through the original chapel doors, you are welcomed into a hallway with quarry tile and wooden flooring, and a staircase leading to the first floor. To the left lies a family bathroom, fitted with white sanitaryware, a shower, tiled flooring, and plumbing for a washing machine. To the right are two double bedrooms with west-facing windows.
At the rear, within what was once the old school house, is a well appointed kitchen combining character and practicality. A blend of freestanding dressers and fitted wooden units with granite worktops creates a warm and traditional feel, while modern conveniences include space and plumbing for a full-sized dishwasher and fridge-freezer. The centrepiece is a black electric Aga, adding warmth to this homely space.
To the rear of the kitchen, a back hall with stripped wooden flooring provides access to useful storage cupboards and the original arched doorway, now opening into a modern conservatory with additional utility space and garden access. A second staircase here rises to the upstairs sitting room.
On this level you’ll also find a convenient cloakroom with WC and laundry facilities.
Beyond lies a cosy snug, leading through an arched doorway into what was once the formal dining room.
This generous, high-ceilinged space is currently used as a home office, offering flexibility for a variety of uses. To the west of the snug, a bright conservatory captures the afternoon sun and opens directly to the garden, framing views across the fields.
The south-facing aspect of the property is home to the main bedroom: a spacious double with direct garden access, complemented by a dressing area and an en suite shower room.
The front staircase ascends to a stunning, vaulted room that reflects the building’s original use as a chapel. Featuring a high wooden ceiling and a central stone mullioned window with stained glass, this impressive space offers flexible living options. A wooden mezzanine, accessed via a spiral staircase, is currently set up as an office with built-in bookshelves and a desk.
On the lower level, a spacious games room is arranged with a Pool table and comfortable seating. Along the east side, a contemporary galley kitchen with dark green shaker-style units, fridge, dishwasher, induction hob, and integrated oven provides a stylish and practical space for entertaining.
Beyond this, a west-facing double bedroom is complemented by a bathroom across the hall, fitted with a slipper bath, shower attachment, and classic white sanitaryware. A large airing cupboard with water tank adds extra practicality.
At the far end of the hall, steps lead down to a magnificent sitting room, originally part of the old schoolhouse.
Characterful features include an exposed brick wall, fireplace, and wood-panelled ceiling, while arched windows and Velux rooflights fill the room with natural light. The focal point is a Hunter 14 woodburner, making this an ideal space for both relaxation and entertaining.
__________
OUTSIDE
Approached via a gravel driveway, the property is secured to the West by estate fencing and an electric gate, leading to an enclosed driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles. A large freestanding double garage also provides additional workshop space.
The main garden wraps around the property and is fully enclosed with a combination of fencing and steel weave panels. Predominantly laid to lawn, it is complemented by a selection of mature shrubs and trees, including a striking horse chestnut. Patio areas create ideal spaces for outdoor entertaining and dining, further enhanced by a built-in brick barbecue. Additional practical features include a table tennis pitch, garden shed and an external boiler room.

SITUATION
Great Bircham is a traditional Norfolk village set amidst rolling countryside, just 12 miles from King’s Lynn and a short drive from the stunning North Norfolk coast. Together with the neighbouring hamlets of Bircham Newton and Bircham Tofts, the village forms a welcoming rural community with everyday amenities close at hand.
The village is home to the renowned Bircham Windmill, a beautifully restored working mill with tea room, bakery and shop, as well as a popular farm shop and deli, and the well-regarded King’s Head Hotel and pub. The parish church of St Mary’s, with origins dating back to Norman times, adds to the village’s historic character.
Great Bircham combines peaceful country living with excellent access to the Sandringham Estate, nearby market towns, and the celebrated beaches of the Norfolk coast.
