Description

Moneyproperties proudly present this fine Grade II listed period home, constructed of traditional brick and flint, is situated on Vicar Street, one of Wymondham’s most sought-after addresses, right in the heart of the historic town centre. Arranged over three floors with the addition of a spacious cellar with an area for wine. This versatile four to five bedroom residence displays a wealth of original architectural features and timeless character throughout.

To the rear, the property enjoys delightful views of Wymondham Abbey, one of Norfolk’s most significant medieval landmarks, providing a truly exceptional backdrop and reguar sightings of peregrine falcons!

Rich in history, both the house and the street reflect the heritage of the town itself. Built in 1758 and occupied since the early 18th century, the property has been associated with several notable local families, including the Bales (Quakers and its longest occupants for 140 years), followed by the Cann, Carver and Colman families. In the 1900s it was home to Dr Thomas Colman, a local surgeon, and later the Culley family. For the past twenty-four years, the current owners, the vendors have enjoyed this remarkable home with the Abbey as their daily outlook.

Abbeyway, 18 Vicar Street offers approximately 2,500 sq ft of versatile living accommodation comprising five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a study, living room and kitchen, along with a wine cellar, utility area and a beautifully newly constructed garden room that blends seamlessly with the character of the house.

Outside, the well-stocked garden features mature planting and fruit trees, creating a peaceful and private setting. The property further benefits from two garages (one fitted with a butler’s sink and water supply) and parking for up to four vehicles — a rare and valuable feature for a town centre property within this conservation area.

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a distinguished historic home in one of Wymondham’s most desirable locations, combining period charm, generous space and exceptional views of one of Norfolk’s most iconic landmarks. 

The current owners have secured their onward purchase and are therefore motivated sellers, offering the advantage of no onward chain and the opportunity of a smooth and swift completion.
