Norwich Road

Set quietly within the small and much-loved village of Tuttington, this substantial family home sits comfortably within beautifully tended gardens and offers generous, well-balanced accommodation that has clearly been cared for over many years.

The house is approached through a five-bar gate, opening onto a sweeping driveway that provides ample parking and leads to the garage. Mature hedging and established planting give the property a pleasing sense of privacy, while the wide lawn and stocked borders to the front create an immediate impression of space and calm.

Inside, the house unfolds easily. A welcoming reception hall leads to three distinct reception rooms, allowing the ground floor to adapt naturally to both everyday family life and more formal occasions. The main sitting room is a warm and inviting space, centred around a wood-burning stove and enjoying views across the front garden, with glazed doors opening through to the conservatory beyond. This lovely light-filled room, with its vaulted glazed roof and garden outlook, works just as well for quiet mornings as it does for entertaining, thanks to its central heating making it comfortable throughout the year.

A second sitting room, currently used as a morning room, opens directly onto the garden through tall glazed doors and connects seamlessly with the dining room, creating a sociable flow between spaces. The dining room itself enjoys a peaceful outlook across the rear garden and sits conveniently alongside the kitchen.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the house and is both well arranged and thoughtfully fitted. Windows to the front bring in plenty of natural light, while a range of base and wall units provide ample storage, complemented by contrasting work surfaces and open shelving. A traditional range cooker forms a natural focal point, and there is space for modern appliances, including a dishwasher. A ceramic sink sits beneath the window, and a servery opening through to the dining room creates an easy link for both everyday meals and entertaining, allowing the kitchen to remain connected without being fully open-plan. A utility and boot room, along with a ground-floor shower room, add to the everyday practicality of the layout.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues. The principal bedroom is particularly generous, enjoying views to both the front and rear gardens, with fitted wardrobes and a well-proportioned en-suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms, all comfortable and well placed, alongside a fifth bedroom currently used as a study. A family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, comprising of a traditional four-piece suite, including a bidet. The arrangement of the first floor, along with the ground-floor facilities, offers clear potential for multi-generational living or the creation of a self-contained annexe, subject to the necessary permissions.

The gardens are a real highlight. To the rear, a large lawn is framed by deeply planted borders filled with an impressive variety of shrubs and plants, many of them unusual, providing colour and interest throughout the seasons. A pond, a triple-tiered water feature and a small wooded area beyond the rear boundary create a wonderfully private setting and a haven for wildlife. Several seating areas are thoughtfully positioned around the garden, allowing you to follow the sun or seek shade as the day unfolds. For those who enjoy gardening, there is a greenhouse, a summerhouse, multiple sheds, a covered wood store and discreet composting areas, all neatly tucked away.

Altogether, this is a house that feels settled and assured, offering space to grow, flexibility for changing needs and a strong sense of connection to its gardens and village setting. Tucked away yet well placed for the amenities of Aylsham, it is a home designed for long-term living, where rooms flow easily, the garden draws you outdoors throughout the year, and the pace of village life can be quietly enjoyed.
