Detached Home in Stow Bedon on a 1.4 Acre Plot

Hornbeam House is an attractive five-bedroom detached property set within the peaceful Norfolk village of Stow Bedon, offering spacious accommodation, versatile living areas and an impressive range of outdoor space. Occupying a plot of approximately 1.4 acres (stms), including a formal paddock and stables, the property is particularly appealing to equestrian enthusiasts. A double garage, carport and ample off-road parking further add to its practicality and flexibility.

The generous proportions lend themselves to modern family life, with plenty of room for those working from home, accommodating visiting family and friends or simply enjoying the benefits of additional space. A particularly appealing feature is the provision of four reception rooms, allowing the ground floor to cater for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen forms an important part of the home’s social space, whilst a separate sitting room provides a more traditional setting in which to relax. A garden/dining room, playroom and study further enhance the layout, offering dedicated areas for family time, hobbies and home working.

The first floor provides five genuine double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities. A spacious four-piece family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, creating a practical arrangement for larger families or those requiring additional guest accommodation.

Outside, the approximately 1.4-acre plot is a significant attraction. The private grounds offer plenty of opportunity for gardening, outdoor entertaining and family recreation, whilst the formal paddock is particularly appealing for those with equestrian interests or buyers seeking additional land. Together, the house and grounds provide an opportunity to embrace a more rural way of life without feeling isolated from everyday amenities.
