Energy Efficient Three Bedroom Family Home in Peaceful Ashwicken

Tucked away within the peaceful village setting of Ashwicken, 1 Glosthorpe Manor is a bright and welcoming three-bedroom home where countryside outlooks, generous living space and thoughtful modern improvements come together beautifully.

Inside, the accommodation extends to around 1,200 sq ft and has been arranged with everyday family life firmly in mind. The ground floor offers a comfortable sitting room, separate dining room, modern fitted kitchen and a particularly useful utility room. To the rear, the conservatory has become one of the most enjoyed parts of the house, providing a light-filled place to sit, work or simply enjoy the garden throughout the seasons.

Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, alongside a family bathroom. Perhaps the most memorable outlook is from the smallest bedroom, where the view stretches across the green space beyond.

During the current owners’ six years here, the property has benefited from some important improvements. An air source heat pump and solar panels have been installed, assisting with the property achieving an EPC B rating which underlines its energy efficient credentials. In addition, the property has been connected to mains drainage and at the same time, the rear garden was levelled making it considerably more usable, creating a practical and child-friendly outside space that encourages life to spill outdoors.

To the front, the property enjoys a generous driveway providing parking for several vehicles together with an attached garage and convenient EV charger. To the rear, the enclosed garden offers a private place to relax, play and entertain, complemented by the open green outlook that first drew the owners to the setting.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, the surrounding countryside offers plenty of opportunity for local walks, with woodland nearby and the wider landscapes of Sandringham within easy reach. The coast is also comfortably accessible, making this a home that balances rural village life with connections to some of West and North Norfolk’s best-loved places.

Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate both the accommodation and the unexpectedly private setting.
