Sandy Lane, East Tuddenham, Norwich, Norfolk, NR20

If you have been in search of a unique family home with a difference, then your search stops at this former World War II bomber headquarters.

First owned by the RAF, the property was later passed onto the American Air Force and served as the HQ for the 466 bomber group. Today, the property has been lovingly transformed into an outstanding family home showcasing around 5000 square feet of vast and luxurious living space.
This superb home now offers a wealth of accommodation and immediately demonstrates its style and character from the moment you step inside.

The accommodation on offer downstairs includes an impressive modern fitted kitchen with utility room and dining area. Positioned here is a dual aspect wood burner which also serves the striking 42ft main lounge where you will find a separate cosy snug. To the ground floor are two of the five double bedrooms including bedroom four, which has its own entrance and is adjacent to the summer lounge, also with its own entrance, both offering the possibly of a self-contained annexe. The main family bathroom with jacuzzi bath and a shower room with steam shower are also located on the ground floor.

A welcoming reception hall with bespoke staircase and tread lights leads up to the commanding galleried landing, you will find a 21ft home office, a home gym, a separate modern shower room and three generous double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes. The principal bedroom offers a luxury modern en suite as well as a private, undercover roof terrace. In addition, a generous roof terrace can be accessed from most of the first-floor accommodation – this stunning, elevated space offers panoramic views of the beautiful surrounding countryside that stretches as far as the eye can see.

Home comforts include triple glazed windows, oil fired central heating with a back up LPG generator, solar panels complete with battery and a one gigabyte internet supply. Air conditioning/heating has recently been installed in the home office, summer lounge and bedroom one.

Located in a charming rural setting the property sits centrally on a substantial 2.5 acre plot (STMS). The grounds themselves offer extensive and well-maintained gardens with patio areas, a large greenhouse and ample parking for multiple vehicles.
The grounds are also home to a variety of outbuildings. These include three historic Nissan huts which were used for operations briefing and billets during the war. Some of the units are currently let on a month-by-month basis and possession can be given on completion. However, the units are let to long standing local businesses who would love to stay but are also willing to vacate if needed. The current owners have advised us that the units generate a good annual income.

Located in the grounds but on a separate title and to be sold under separate negotiation, is a 2-bedroom detached bungalow. This is currently rented out to a family but can be purchased. The bungalow and its garden area have had previous planning permission for a 5-bedroom detached house. This has now lapsed but could be sought again if desired.

Offering excellent transport links with access to the A47, the cathedral city of Norwich and the north Norfolk coast, East Tuddenham is perfectly situated to cater for any prospective purchasers needs.

There is so much more we could say about this wonderful property, however only on personal inspection can you truly take in all that this incredible countryside home has to offer.
