Description

When it comes to character, elegance and ambiance, Church Farm delivers. Situated in a wonderful location near St Mary's Church, Great Witchingham , the property is about three miles from the bustling market town of Reepham. As you enter on to the gravelled driveway your eyes are instantly drawn to the wonderful well-landscaped grounds. The house is set well within this plot and the planting to the front complements the house perfectly.

The interiors are luxurious and in keeping with a home of this period. Modern day living meets a quintessential country house. The calming and warming atmosphere gravitates through the home. A more formal drawing room is flooded with natural light and the warmth of the fire in the cooler months. The snug is a wonderful cosy room; warmth from the wood burner and a great space to relax and unwind. When it comes to entertaining, the dining room is perfect, adjacent to the well-fitted kitchen breakfast room. The island works well for chatting whilst cooking. Every home of this stature needs a well-equipped boot and laundry room. To the rear, there is a useful private study, playroom, hobbies room and cloakroom.

The staircase elevates you to the first-floor landing where you will find three superb calming bedrooms, all with modern luxurious en-suite bathrooms. In addition, you have the choice of a second study, which could also be used as a fine dressing room. The vaulted characterful top floor is home to two bedrooms and the most luxurious bathroom. Centre stage is the polished copper bath, adding a real sense of modern day luxury.

The substantial brick barn is currently used as extensive storage, with so many potential uses, such as extra accommodation, or a space to host parties - the list is endless. For working from home, then there is a well-appointed home office with a separate cloakroom. A haven to escape the hustle and bustle of the home.

The grounds extending to approximately 1.75 acres (STMS) have been a true labour of love. A quintessential English garden, complementing the house perfectly with an abundance of varied planting from ornamental to edible goodies. The pond with its jetty is a perfect place to sit back, relax and enjoy watching the wildlife. Parking is plentiful and the three bay cart lodge sits well and benefits from a separate lockable store. Furthermore, the property also boasts an additional two acres of woodland (STMS).

Further land available by separate negotiation.
