Norwich Road, Fakenham, NR21

37d Norwich Road is believed to date from approximately 1858 and forms part of what was the Fakenham Industrial School, a domestic services training school for girls. The school survived until 1903 when the building was taken over by Barnados.

Today, the property now forms several homes with number 37d occupying part of the rear of the building.  This superb family home has spacious accommodation briefly comprising an impressive open plan kitchen/dining/living room, 3 bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, 2 bathrooms and a cellar with the further benefit of UPVC double glazed windows and doors and gas-fired central heating.

Outside, there is an allocated parking space and a communal courtyard garden, shared with the neighbouring properties.

North Norfolk's largest town, Fakenham is a bustling and lively community ideally located for access to the coast and also for Norwich and King's Lynn.
