East Carleton, Norfolk, NR14

Introduction

Rare rental opportunity: a prestigious Manor home set within its own private estate, just 15 minutes from Norwich city centre. With six double bedrooms, generous reception space, and beautifully maintained grounds leading to a tranquil lake, this property offers the scale and privacy of country living with the convenience of city access.

Reception and Ground Floor

A large reception hall sets an immediate sense of arrival and leads through to a dual-aspect living room filled with natural light. From here, a door opens into a sun loggia with views across the Italian-style garden - an ideal spot for morning coffee, reading, or quieter evenings in.

The exquisitely panelled dining room is made for hosting, while the kitchen–breakfast room provides a practical hub for everyday life, with a walk-in larder and space for informal dining. A cloakroom, utility room, and boot room complete the ground floor, providing essential functionality.

Upper Floors

The accommodation is arranged across the first and second floors, reached via a sweeping staircase to a galleried landing. The principal suite enjoys dual-aspect garden views and access to a private balcony overlooking the grounds towards the lake. Five further double bedrooms are served by classic ensuite bathrooms, offering excellent flexibility for family life and guests.

An office and a sewing room add valuable additional space - ideal for working from home in calm, private surroundings.

The Grounds

The private grounds are maintained to a very high standard, with immaculate lawns and winding paths leading down to a peaceful lake shaded by established trees. A charming thatched summerhouse provides a lovely viewpoint across the landscape - perfect for quiet weekends, visiting family, or simply enjoying the setting. The property includes two 3 bay carports, providing substantial covered parking.

Architectural Note

Designed by James Fletcher Watson, a respected mid-century architect with a strong Norfolk footprint, the house carries a confident sense of proportion and setting.
