Marshland St. James

This substantial home stands proudly back from any passing traffic and is approached over a smooth gravel chip driveway, providing ample off-road parking and access to a detached double garage. A grey porcelain pathway frames this generous family home, complementing a broad sun terrace to the rear garden which is accessed through a private timber side gate.

Entering beneath an oak framed tile covered canopy this impressive property opens into a broad entrance hallway with separate doors leading to warming sitting room with a feature exposed brick fireplace, a handy snug and a cloakroom. A further door from the hallway welcomes the signature heart of this sociable family home, a comprehensive kitchen with a utility and an open dining and family area with bi-folding doors to a rear terrace.

To the first-floor, a galleried landing leads to a four-piece family bathroom and four double bedrooms, two with ensuite and with a principal bedroom boasting a dressing area, ensuite and Juliette balcony. The remaining rooms to the second-floor gift this home a depth of versatility to readily meet needs of today’s modern family lifestyle, whether as a home office, a gaming room, a space for solace or simply somewhere accessible to store keepsakes for another day.

MARSHLAND ST JAMES
Resting amidst a patchwork of rich agricultural fields and woven between the tapestry of former marshland dykes and tributaries, tracing their way back the Great River Ouse, is the picturesque fenland village of Marshland St James.

With both a Nursery School and a Primary School, as well as nearby secondary schooling and a very modern, engaging Community Hall beating at its heart, Marshland St James affords a modern solution to a rural family lifestyle on the fringe of the bustling historic port town of King’s Lynn.

Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King’s Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.

King Street, which runs from Tuesday Market Place to the Custom House, was once known as ‘Stockfish Row’ for the number of fish merchants that lived there. With a listed building every 26ft, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England.

With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour’s drive and a direct rail line into London King’s Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King’s Lynn continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route. It’s easy to see the appeal of this central location with a clutch of high street retailers and independent restaurants in the town’s Vancouver Centre. The Majestic Cinema and King’s Lynn Alive Corn Exchange are the place to catch a film or show, or check out what’s on at St George’s Guildhall, the UK’s largest surviving medieval guildhall, today a vibrant arts centre.
