Lower Stow Bedon, Attleborough, Norfolk, NR17

Charming and spacious period home in grounds of about 0.8 acres

Description

Hall Cottage is an attractive period home, originally two cottages that were thoughtfully combined by a previous owner to create a spacious single residence set within mature grounds extending to approximately 0.8 acres. Offering a versatile and well-balanced layout suited to both couples and families alike, this delightful home must be viewed to fully appreciate its attractive setting and lifestyle appeal.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall leading into the kitchen/breakfast room. Featuring an aga, central island, pantry and fitted wooden cabinetry, the space perfectly embodies the character and charm of a traditional country kitchen. The sitting room and dining room are both generously proportioned reception rooms, connected to one another and centred around attractive fireplaces, creating ideal spaces for both family living and entertaining. The sitting room enjoys direct access to a conservatory, which overlooks the gardens and grounds beyond, while also linking to a study that would equally serve as an excellent playroom or home office. A utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. A brick-built connecting hall links the main house to the garage and workshops, providing practical coat and shoe storage, together with access to both sides of the garden.
A reclaimed oak staircase rises to the first floor, where there are four bedrooms, including a spacious principal bedroom with a contemporary en suite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms are served by a family bathroom fitted with both a bath and separate shower.

Outside
A gated in/out horseshoe driveway circles the house, providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles and leading to the double garage and wood shed. The gardens are mature and well established, offering a high degree of privacy throughout. Beautifully stocked with specimen trees, shrubs and planted borders, the grounds provide year-round interest, while a patio terrace offers an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Together, the gardens create a wonderful country cottage setting and complement the character of the house perfectly.
