PROPERTY
The property is an imposing and substantial brick barn conversion in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Kenninghall. With a secluded village position, covered verandahs and a sun terrace with swimming pool there are echoes of a French or Italian rural farmhouse in the heart of Norfolk.
The accommodation is both spacious and versatile. The front door opens to the entrance hall with stairs to the first floor. At the heart of the house is an impressive double aspect sitting room with feature fireplace and opening to terraces on both sides. There are vertical beams and glazing looking into the dining room and access to the opposite end into a music room. The double aspect kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of cream wall and base units. It connects to a spacious utility/boot room. There is also a useful study and a ground floor shower room. On the first floor the principal bedroom has an ensuite and there are 4 further bedrooms, each with their own character. The family bathroom has a freestanding roll-top bath and separate shower.
A discreet gravel driveway leads from the road to a parking area for several cars. The delightful covered verandahs create a wonderful sense of arrival. There is a patio to the rear that leads to the raised sun terrace with heated swimming pool. There is an excellent detached studio which is currently used as a one bedroom annexe but could be an artist's/music studio or wonderful entertaining space. The gardens and grounds are a delight and real surprise for being in the centre of the village. Laid largely to lawn and interspersed with mature trees, they total 1.28 acres.
