Description

A handsome Victorian home dating back to 1850, Wesley Villa combines the character and proportions of its heritage with the versatility demanded by modern family life. Set within grounds of around three-quarters of an acre (STMS) and offered with no onward chain, the property adapts effortlessly to changing needs, whether accommodating extended family, creating dedicated space for home working, or generating income through holiday letting.

There is an immediate sense of permanence and presence. The attractive façade and sweeping carriage driveway create a memorable first impression, while inside, a wealth of original features speak to the home’s Victorian roots. The welcoming entrance hall is particularly striking, with a beautifully crafted staircase, decorative balustrades and traditional tiled flooring setting the tone for the accommodation beyond.

The principal reception rooms are elegant yet comfortable spaces. The dining room enjoys a bay window overlooking the front gardens, with stripped timber floorboards and a marble fireplace creating a refined backdrop for entertaining. Across the hall, the sitting room offers a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere, filled with natural light from dual-aspect windows and enhanced by rich parquet flooring.

At the rear of the house, the kitchen/dining room has been designed for everyday living. Shaker-style cabinetry, granite worktops and a vaulted ceiling with rooflights combine to create a bright and sociable space where family life naturally unfolds. A utility room and shower room complete the ground floor.

The first floor of the main house offers three generous double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each room enjoys excellent natural light and pleasing proportions, with one currently arranged as a dressing room, offering flexibility to suit individual requirements.

A connecting lobby links the house to the converted coach house, creating an exceptional extension of the space, with abundant possibilities. Two reception rooms provide additional living space, while the impressive games room is perfectly suited to family gatherings, celebrations and relaxed weekends. Beyond, the garden room is a particularly special space. Framed by views across the gardens and neighbouring countryside, it provides an effortless connection between indoors and out, whether hosting summer lunches, enjoying morning coffee, or simply watching the seasons change.

Within the coach house are two further double bedrooms, both enjoying dual-aspect views. The principal benefits from an en-suite, while a separate shower room serves the additional bedroom, creating comfortable and independent accommodation for guests and family alike.

Outside, the grounds are a significant part of the property’s appeal. The extensive lawned gardens provide space for children to play, keen gardeners to indulge their passion, or simply to enjoy the sense of openness that surrounds the home. The substantial summerhouse, complete with heating and lighting, offers further versatility as a studio, workspace or retreat. Two sheds and additional storage areas provide excellent practical support for country living.

Large paved terraces wrap around the rear of the house, creating inviting spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining. Whether hosting family celebrations, enjoying relaxed evenings with friends or simply appreciating the outlook across the gardens, the setting encourages a slower pace and a genuine connection with the outdoors.

Wesley Villa is a home that offers far more than square footage alone. Rich in character, adaptable in layout and wonderfully positioned for modern family life, it is a property ready to embrace its next chapter.

About Sowerbys, King's Lynn

23 Tuesday Market Place King's Lynn Norfolk PE30 1JJ

Our home in King’s Lynn

Overlooking the square where the calls of market traders once echoed, our King’s Lynn branch is a proud part of West Norfolk’s rich heritage. Perched on the banks of the River Great Ouse, the town was once one of the busiest ports in the country. Today, its cobbled streets along the quay are home to welcoming eateries and independent stores.

A place with history

For many years the Sowerbys team could be found on King Street - once known as ‘Stockfish Row’ for the number of fish merchants that lived there. With a listed building every 26 feet, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England. Growth saw the branch relocate in 2022 to Bank Chambers, a grand listed property sitting centrally among historic buildings at the top of Tuesday Market Place.

Step inside

Peer out from the front-facing windows and soak up the comings and goings of shoppers across the square, surrounded by enchanting architecture that has watched over the heart of the town for centuries. Before its restoration, Bank Chambers sat empty for several years, hiding stories within its walls - from the names of local people etched into its shutters to what is thought to be the first wallpaper hung on the medieval timber frame still in place today.

A warm welcome

Step through the front door and rest your feet in the comfortable client lounge, or join us in the grand boardroom with those iconic marketplace views. Whether you’re here to talk property or simply enjoy a coffee, you’re always welcome at Sowerbys King’s Lynn.
