Church Street, Great Ellingham, Attleborough, NR17

Grade II listed and dating back to the 14th century, with a later addition in the 19th century and thoughtful modernisation in the 21st century, this exceptional detached period home has been sympathetically restored to preserve its remarkable heritage and original character. Technically described as a three part hall house which originally divided the domestics living quarters from the family's living area.

Beautifully presented and re-thatched in 2009 with new ridge in 2024, the property offers four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms. Steeped in history and rich in original features, it is a truly special home that must be experienced to fully appreciate its atmosphere and charm.

Originally, in the 14th century, the house would have consisted of a single open hall where families and owners lived side by side for warmth. Centuries later, a first floor was introduced and extra flooring, creating 2 of the bedrooms with charmingly low doorways, which remain in place today — adding to the home’s authentic character and requiring a certain agility to navigate.

Despite its historic origins, the property has been carefully updated to provide all the essentials for modern family living, seamlessly blending period features with contemporary comfort.

The overall plot extends to approximately one third of an acre and is currently divided into two sections. The principal house sits within approximately one sixth of an acre of established, mature, south facing gardens. In addition, there are converted barn outbuildings, constructed to a stage between first and second fix, which are available by separate negotiation.

This is an unusual, unique and fascinating home — a rare opportunity to own a piece of living history, beautifully adapted for the present day.
