Hall Street, Briston, NR24

Having been in the same ownership for approaching half a century this stunning home, crafted from the south wing of an historic former Grange, the current building dating from the Georgian period but reconstructed on a site mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, now offers  very generous, flexible extended and improved accommodation of unique character and style together with two timber outbuildings that lend themselves to a number of potential uses, mature gardens and off road parking.

The very spacious ground floor has two high ceiling, formal reception rooms of generous proportions in the original section, currently configured as the dining room with a magnificent fireplace and multi aspect sitting room plus less formal areas which include a through seating/breakfast area, again with feature fireplace recess, leading to the kitchen and lovely sun room extension which is flooded by natural light.

On the first floor there are three very generous double bedrooms and a magnificent family bathroom complete with free standing roll top bath and shower cubicle.

Outside there is a useful Pavilion outbuilding, currently used for storage and a large studio/workshop, both suitable for a wide range of potential uses. The mature gardens are laid out in an informal cottage garden style with suntrap patio area, lawns and deep well stocked shrub  beds and mature trees. To the front there is off road parking for 2 vehicles.

Briston forms part of the village of Melton Constable with its primary school and both villages are set in this popular part of the North Norfolk countryside, with a regular bus service providing access to Holt, Norwich, Fakenham and King's Lynn. Within the village of Briston there is a Post Office and food stores, butchers, bakers and a community centre.

The pretty Georgian town of Holt is approximately 3 miles away and offers a further range of facilities including a primary school and the renowned Gresham’s public schools. The North Norfolk coast is nearby with Blakeney and Sheringham within easy distance. The Cathedral City of Norwich, and regional centre of East Anglia, is approximately 20 miles away with its rail service to London Liverpool Street.

GROUND FLOOR

The spacious sun room extension is used by the current owners as a sun filled retreat and work space but also doubles up as the entrance to the home. This in turn leads to a through living space with fireplace recess and open tread staircase to the first floor and a step down to the professional style, stainless steel kitchen. A hallway leads to the larger section of the original building including the large formal dining room with magnificent fireplace and generous multi aspect sitting room.

FIRST FLOOR

All three bedrooms are independently accessed off the landing and are of genuine double proportions. Bedroom one has an excellent range of fitted wardrobes and cabinets plus a built-in cupboard to the side of the chimney breast. Bedroom two also has fitted wardrobes and bedroom three has a pleasant side aspect over the garden. The family bathroom is very spacious with free standing roll top bath and shower cubicle.

OUTSIDE

The mature gardens are delightfully informal with a country cottage feel and include a sun trap patio area, pathways connecting secluded corners, mature trees and well stocked shrub borders. The two outbuildings are worthy of particular note, one being currently used as storage and the other a studio/workshop but both lend themselves to a range of potential uses including home office or therapy suites. To the front of the property a brick weave driveway provides off road parking for at least two vehicles.
