Description

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to present this charming five bedroom period home in a unique village setting. Believed to date back to the 1860s, this substantial five bedroom, three-storey period residence offers an exceptional blend of timeless character and modern practicality. Occupying a delightful position within the historic church grounds of the sought-after village of North Pickenham, the property is offered to the market with the added benefit of no onward chain.

Steeped in charm, the home showcases a wealth of original features including exposed beams and a welcoming log burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. These characterful elements are complemented by modern comforts including uPVC double glazing and gas central heating, ensuring the property remains both efficient and comfortable all year round.


ACCOMMODATION

The spacious entrance hall leads to an elegant drawing room, a wonderful reception space ideal for entertaining, while the generous sitting room offers a relaxing family retreat centered around the charming log burner. A separate study provides the perfect work-from-home space, or children's playroom.

At the heart of the home lies the impressive 19ft kitchen diner, beautifully equipped with quality, bespoke cabinetry, striking quartz worktops, a traditional double Butler-style sink, and an impressive range-style cooker. The kitchen flows naturally into the adjoining utility room, providing additional storage and laundry facilities. There is also a pantry/storage cupboard ideal for hosting equipment. A convenient shower room completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor offers three generously proportioned bedrooms, including a superb principle bedroom and a spacious second bedroom, both enjoying excellent proportions. A stylish family bathroom, complete with both a free standing bath and a separate shower, serves this floor, while a further versatile room offers the ideal guest bedroom, nursery, or home office.

The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, one of which benefits from a walk-in wardrobe, alongside a well-appointed shower room, making this level perfect for older children, guests or multi-generational living.

OUTSIDE

Externally, the property is equally impressive. The enclosed rear garden has been lovingly established with mature shrubs, colourful planting and attractive seating areas, providing a peaceful and private setting to enjoy throughout the year. To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a garage, offering excellent storage and practicality.
