Description

This super special, stunning, individually designed home is set on the outskirts of the Norfolk village of Emneth, occupying a generous 1.25 acre plot with uninterrupted field views (Emneth Church can be seen in the distance).

Bespoke built by the current vendors in 2015/16, this unique property is a testament to craftsmanship and thoughtful design.

The house is a traditional timber frame build, created on site by a specialist local company, with the ground floor exterior finished in classic Flemish clay brick and the upper elevations clad in Dreadnought Staffordshire clay tiles.

The lounge features treated timber boarding externally and an impressive oak-framed pentagon-shaped window that perfectly frames the rural outlook. High-quality materials are evident throughout, including French oak roof trusses and South-facing windows, double-glazed teak windows and French doors and a combination of ceramic tiles and engineered oak flooring on the ground floor.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors and includes two reception rooms, a generous kitchen/diner, three double bedrooms and three bathrooms, providing flexible space for family living or entertaining guests.

Comfort is assured with full insulation from floor to roof, underfloor heating with individual room controls on the ground floor and radiator heating on the first floor and second floor, all powered by an efficient ground source heat pump (with backup immersion heater and weekly high temperature boost for legionella prevention).

A wood burning stove in the lounge adds a cosy touch and the property’s eco credentials are further enhanced by twelve solar panels mounted on the garage roof, producing an average of 3,600kWh per year.

The property is served by a bio-digested sewage tank (licenced for up to six persons), which only requires emptying approximately every three years, with minimal ongoing cost and no payments to the water company.

The main ornamental garden is securely fenced for dogs and features a variety of fruit trees, including cherry plum, damson and apricot, while the woodland area offers cherry plums, blackberries and apples from a venerable old tree.

Entry to this impressive home is via a double-gated gravelled drive, providing ample off-road parking and leading to a double detached garage (6.45m x 5.60m) with two up-and-over doors, side access, power and lighting and the afore-mentioned solar panels. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn and enclosed by fencing, making them ideal for children and pets, with a paved patio and gravelled seating area.

Services & Info
