The Orchard, Fakenham

SUMMARY:
Constructed only three years ago and still benefiting from a professional consultants certification until mid 2033, this striking contemporary home is offered for sale with no onward chain. Tucked away on a quiet lane and enjoying a private rear garden bordered by mature trees, the property combines stylish architecture and versatile living. Designed with modern lifestyles in mind, the home offers beautifully connected open-plan living areas, generous double bedrooms and stylish, high-quality finishes throughout. 

GROUND FLOOR:
The ground floor has been thoughtfully designed to create a seamless flow between living, dining and entertaining. From the moment you step inside, an impressive double-height entrance hall with expansive glazed frontage creates an immediate sense of elegance. At the heart of the home is a superb kitchen/dining area, fitted with a range of premium units and integrated appliances, all centred around a sleek kitchen island that naturally becomes the social hub of the home. Whether preparing family meals or entertaining guests, this space is perfectly suited to both everyday living and special occasions. The dining area effortlessly connects the entire space, allowing family life to unfold harmoniously - whether cooking, relaxing, entertaining or helping with homework, the layout ensures everyone remains connected. To the rear, the sitting room enjoys a slightly more secluded feel whilst still being open-plan, which creates a wonderfully relaxing environment to enjoy. Two sets of bi-fold doors flood the ground floor with natural light and open directly onto the gardens, providing indoor-outdoor living. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom and underfloor heating throughout ensures comfort during the colder months. 

FIRST FLOOR:
An attractive oak staircase leads to the bright first floor landing and adds both warmth and character to the state-of-the-art interior. From here, access is provided to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room and charming Juliet balcony. On warmer days, opening the balcony doors allows a refreshing breeze to flow through the room, creating a peaceful and airy retreat. The remaining bedrooms are equally versatile, ideal for family living, guests or home working. A stylish family bathroom with a four piece suite serves the additional bedrooms. 

OUTSIDE:
The property has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind - to the front, a block-paved driveway leads to the integral garage and provides off-road parking, whilst a lawned frontage bordered by wrought iron fencing adds to the home's attractive kerb appeal. The fully enclosed rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys a good degree of privacy thanks to the surrounding fencing, mature trees and established laurel hedging which softens the boundaries beautifully. A well-proportioned patio area provides the perfect setting for summer barbecues, outdoor dining and family gatherings. 

SERVICES:
Mains electricity, water and drainage are connected to the property.

Heating is supplied via an air source heat pump with underfloor heating to the ground floor and radiators & heated towel rails at first floor level.
