Stylish, detached period home with flexible accommodation and attractive gardens.
Storrs is an attractive period home located in the village of Halvergate to the east of Norwich. The property has been renovated and improved by the current owners to offer a stylish and characterful home ideal for both couples and families alike. With a nod very much to the present day the owners have implemented solar panelling to aid both the eco credentials as well as the running costs of the property.
The ground floor accommodation comprises of four, spacious reception rooms allowing for a flexible use of the impressive layout. Within the older part of the house are a cosy snug, a dining room which is well placed next to the kitchen and a study, ideal for a buyer looking to work from home. The sitting room is within a well-designed modern extension and features a contrasting vaulted ceiling to give the house its modern twist. The remodelled kitchen/breakfast room offers a superb sociable space and usefully overflows into the well-equipped utility room and handy boot room, perfect for country living. A cloakroom rounds off the ground floor.
The first floor consists of five double bedrooms including a light, principal room benefitting from both a dressing area and en suite. Four of the bedrooms are within the older section of the house with three of them being served via a four-piece family bathroom with free standing bath and separate shower cubicle. During our current owners' tenure, the en suite and bathroom have been replaced. Above the sitting room extension the fifth bedroom with its own staircase and en suite makes for an excellent guest bedroom.
Outside
Approached via a gravel driveway which leads to an integral double garage there is ample parking for several cars. Sitting within a plot of about a quarter of an acre, the front gardens have an attractive array of box hedging and features a gate leading into the rear and side gardens. The main garden has been predominantly laid to lawn but with a clever emphasis on outdoor entertaining thanks to a patio terrace and three pergolas. This allows for an ideal position to utilise an outside kitchen. The gardens benefit from a good amount of privacy despite the central village position and a further terrace off the sitting room has ambient outdoor lighting.
