An Exceptional Country Residence with Annexe, Leisure Facilities & Expansive Grounds
Set within Green Belt land, Norfolk House offers a rare opportunity to own a unique and versatile country residence that balances privacy, luxury, and convenience.

This four-bedroom detached home, positioned within 0.7 acres, boasts an independent two-bedroom annexe with its own council tax and postal address, along with multiple outbuildings, an indoor swimming pool, and beautifully landscaped grounds. With an impressive in-and-out gated driveway, this home provides a grand entrance that perfectly complements the scale and exclusivity of the property.

Approaching the house, the gated, tree-lined driveway immediately sets the tone for this elegant residence. The main house offers spacious and well-proportioned accommodation, blending modern comfort with classic charm. Upon entry, the grand hallway leads to an impressive 21ft reception room, featuring a striking fireplace that enhances the warm and inviting atmosphere. A second reception room, currently used as a sitting room, flows seamlessly into the bright and spacious conservatory, which provides direct access to a sun terrace, creating an ideal space for relaxation and entertaining.

The kitchen/breakfast room is designed for both practicality and style, featuring bespoke cabinetry, a range cooker, a central island, and luxurious granite worktops. Large deep-set windows overlook the front aspect, flooding the space with natural light and offering beautiful views of the gardens. A separate utility room and ground-floor shower room add further functionality to the home.

Upstairs, the half galleried landing provides access to four generously sized bedrooms, including the principal suite, which enjoys a private balcony with elevated views over the landscaped front lawn. The remaining bedrooms are well-appointed and share a family bathroom, ensuring ample space for family living.

A key highlight of this property is the independent two-bedroom annexe, which offers complete separation from the main house, making it ideal for multi-generational living or rental opportunities for relatives. With its own council tax band and postal address, this annexe features a spacious reception room, a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, two comfortable bedrooms, and a modern shower room. The annexe also benefits from its own private courtyard garden, providing a secluded outdoor space.

Beyond the main residence and annexe, Norfolk House is equipped with multiple outbuildings, each offering exceptional versatility. There are two independent outbuildings, currently used individually by the vendors, providing flexible spaces that could be transformed into home offices, gyms, studios, or additional storage. Additionally, the swimming pool building is an outstanding feature of the home, with a fully enclosed indoor heated pool, complete with its own dedicated boiler system and consumer unit. French doors open onto a secluded patio area, creating the perfect environment for both leisure and exercise.

The outdoor space has been meticulously designed to provide the ultimate balance between relaxation and entertainment. A beautifully landscaped terrace, complete with a barbecue area and covered hot tub, offers a wonderful setting for hosting guests and enjoying the surroundings. The property also benefits from ample parking, with a substantial gravelled parking area adjacent to the house, providing convenience without compromising on the aesthetic appeal of the grounds.

Set within protected Green Belt land, this home enjoys a peaceful and scenic setting while offering easy access to major transport links and amenities. Due to the Green Belt designation, any future development or structural alterations would be subject to planning restrictions, ensuring the surrounding landscape remains unspoiled and maintaining the exclusivity of the location.

Despite its countryside setting, Norfolk House is conveniently positioned for access to Basildon town centre and Billericay High Street, both of which offer an array of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities. The property is just 2.5 miles from Basildon Main Line Station, with direct services to London Fenchurch Street in approximately 36 minutes. The nearby A127 and M25 (Junction 29) provide excellent road connections, while Southend Airport is just a short drive away, offering both domestic and international travel options.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of this calibre, offering an exceptional blend of space, luxury, and versatility in a highly desirable location. Norfolk House is more than just a home; it is a lifestyle.
