Spacious ground floor apartment set within converted hall and with direct access to orangery

Description

3 Whitlingham Hall is an impressive ground floor apartment set within one of the county’s most prestigious hall conversions. Situated to the east of Norwich, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of local history, offering an ideal lock-up-and-leave residence or an exceptional downsizing opportunity.

Extending to more than 2,600 sq ft, the apartment provides remarkably generous accommodation, centred around its magnificent drawing room. Measuring approximately 30ft by 30ft, this remarkable space enjoys views across the communal grounds and is distinguished by its impressive double-height proportions, ornate ceiling detailing and striking fireplace. A mezzanine level overlooks the room and provides a versatile additional reception area, ideally suited as a home office, television room or occasional bedroom, subject to requirements.

The kitchen/breakfast room is equally well proportioned, offering ample storage and preparation space for keen cooks while maintaining a separation from the formal entertaining areas. It also benefits from pleasant views across the grounds, creating a bright and welcoming environment for everyday living.

The apartment offers three double bedrooms, including a principal suite featuring an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, a dual-aspect outlook and an en suite shower room. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom, complemented by a separate cloakroom for guests. An attractive curved hallway provides a natural division between the living and sleeping accommodation and incorporates useful built-in storage.

Of particular note, Apartment 3 is the only residence within Whitlingham Hall to enjoy private, direct access to the renowned Orangery. This unique feature allows owners to enjoy a secluded area within this spectacular space while appreciating its exceptional setting. In addition, the apartment benefits from its own allocated veranda, providing the perfect spot from which to admire the landscaped grounds, enjoy a morning coffee, read a book or dine al fresco.
