Description

A substantial detached family home, Fir Haus occupies a prime corner plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within the well-regarded village of Ashill. The position offers a strong sense of privacy along with open field and paddock views to the rear, creating a rural outlook while remaining firmly connected to village life and nearby market towns.

The property provides generous and flexible accommodation extending over two floors, well suited to modern family living. With five bedrooms and three versatile reception rooms, the layout allows space to adapt easily to changing needs, whether that be home working, multi-generational living or entertaining. The balance between living and bedroom space is practical and well proportioned, offering longevity for growing families or those seeking room to spread out without compromise.

A key strength of Fir Haus is its commitment to energy efficiency and sustainability. The house benefits from solar panels, a hot water solar heating unit and storage batteries, helping to reduce running costs and improve overall energy performance. These features add long-term value and appeal, particularly for buyers looking to future-proof their next home.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The mature landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully established, providing structure, privacy and year-round interest. The rear aspect enjoys uninterrupted views across neighbouring fields and paddocks, enhancing the sense of space and countryside living. The generous plot size also allows for practical outdoor use, from family recreation to gardening.

Practicality is further enhanced by a double garage and separate workshop, offering excellent storage and workspace options for hobbies, home projects or additional vehicles. Off-road parking is well catered for, and there’s an EV charger, powered by solar or mains. The corner plot position ensures a feeling of openness rarely found within cul-de-sac settings.

Ashill remains a popular village due to its community feel and accessible amenities, while the nearby market towns of Watton and Swaffham are just a short drive away, providing a wider range of shopping, schooling and services. This combination of village location, countryside outlook and convenience makes Fir Haus particularly appealing to those seeking a balanced lifestyle.

Overall, Fir Haus offers a well-located, energy-conscious family home with generous accommodation, attractive views and mature grounds, all set within one of the area’s most desirable village settings.
