An impressive executive home with privacy.
The Crew House is an impressive modern home, built in 1997, and subsequently updated by the current owners including new bathrooms, kitchen, orangery, garden studio and utility room. The house enjoys a substantial and private plot in one of Wroxham's most sought after residential areas. With over 3,300 square feet of accommodation, the house has significant living space which is well arranged to suit many living styles.
A spacious entrance hall is a welcoming first impression of The Crew House, leading to all principal living areas. A charming dual aspect sitting room, of fine proportions, has bespoke cabinetry and shelving and attractive fireplace. Glazed double doors open to the dining room, providing excellent entertaining space. This is enhanced further by glazed doors from the dining room into the exceptional orangery. This delightful room measures about 7.7m x 4.2m, with plenty of glazing including a sizeable roof lantern allowing in plenty of natural light, and with direct access out to the gardens. The garden room is linked to the kitchen, creating an excellent flow throughout the ground floor accommodation. The open plan kitchen/breakfast room is a great focal point for the house, with bespoke units and island, and with the convenience of an adjoining utility room. The ground floor is completed by a useful study and WC.
All bedrooms are on the first floor, and enjoy fine views of the gardens. The principal bedroom justifies its label with an en suite bath/shower room finished to a high standard, together with a dressing room. There are four further bedrooms, three double and one single, all with fitted wardrobes, and served by a family bath/shower room. In addition is a large attic room, accessed via space saving stairs, with velux windows allowing in natural light.
The house is beautifully presented throughout.
Outside
The Crew House is approached off Staitheway Road, over a shared gravel driveway to a small close of houses of which The Crew House is the first. The drive becomes private to the house, with a gravelled parking and turning area adjoining the house and double garage, with parking for many cars.
The wonderful gardens to the house are mainly laid to lawn, with well stocked herbaceous borders, shrubberies and some impressive mature trees including oak and beech.
The lawns sweep round the house, with an ornamental pond at the centre and directly in view from the garden room. An east and south facing terrace provides a brilliant area for outside dining. In one corner of the garden, in a south facing position, a new studio has been erected. Purpose built with electric connection, this is a great space to work from home, artist studio or simply an area to look out at the garden and back to the house. There is a second vehicle access to the garden, which could be utilized as boat storage.

This is a brilliant example of what a modern village house should be, good scale, in great order, with a large private garden and garaging. It is the full package.
