Having undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and extension in 2021, this exceptional three-bedroom bungalow has been transformed into a striking contemporary home, occupying a generous plot approaching 0.40 of an acre (STMS) within one of South Norfolk's most desirable village settings.
Set well back from the lane behind an extensive gravel driveway, the property immediately stands apart thanks to its attractive cedar-clad frontage, impressive parking provision and beautifully maintained grounds. The current owners have invested significantly in the property, creating a home that combines stylish modern living with excellent energy efficiency, including the installation of 16 solar panels and battery storage.
Extending to almost 1,200 sq.ft. of accommodation, the property has been thoughtfully designed with modern lifestyles in mind. At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, undoubtedly the room that will draw buyers to this property. Flooded with natural light from a large roof lantern and bi-folding doors overlooking the rear garden, this impressive space provides the perfect environment for both everyday family life and entertaining. The contemporary kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite work surfaces, integrated appliances and a substantial central island, whilst the generous dining and seating areas create a wonderfully sociable atmosphere.
The sitting room provides an excellent secondary reception space and enjoys attractive views across the gardens, creating a peaceful place to relax away from the main hub of the home.
The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive, comprising three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom and separate shower room, both finished to an excellent standard and reflecting the quality found throughout the property.
It is clear to see that no expense has been spared in the transformation of this home, with every improvement carefully considered to create a property that is ready for a new owner to move straight into and enjoy from day one.
Outside, the grounds are a particular highlight. Extending to approximately 0.40 of an acre (STMS), the gardens provide a wonderful balance of open lawn, established planting and mature trees, creating a setting that feels both private and distinctly rural. A generous terrace extends directly from the kitchen/family room, allowing the inside and outside to blend seamlessly during the warmer months and providing the perfect space for entertaining family and friends.
The remainder of the garden has been beautifully maintained and offers an abundance of space for children to play, keen gardeners to enjoy or simply somewhere to relax and appreciate the peaceful surroundings. A substantial timber outbuilding with power connected provides excellent versatility and could suit a variety of uses including a workshop, studio, hobby room or additional storage.
Properties of this nature are rarely available. Combining contemporary open-plan living, excellent energy efficiency, generous gardens and a highly regarded village location!
