5 bed detached house for sale

Ketts Hill, Necton, Swaffham, Norfolk PE37

Most attractive, renovated and extended period home backing onto countryside

Description
Cambridge House has undergone a significant programme of refurbishment and extension during the current owners’ tenure, resulting in a spacious and highly attractive family home. Carefully retaining its period character while introducing contemporary finishes both internally and externally, the property now offers accommodation extending to approximately 2600 square feet, set within grounds of around half an acre. The position is particularly appealing, with far-reaching countryside views to the rear.
In addition, an unconverted barn provides excellent potential for a variety of uses, including the creation of an annexe (subject to the necessary consents).

The accommodation comprises a welcoming and spacious reception hall, a sitting room featuring a fireplace and bay window to the front, and, to the rear, a remarkable kitchen/dining/family room extension. This impressive addition has transformed the flow of the house, creating a substantial and sociable living space ideally suited to both families and couples alike. The kitchen, with its sleek modern cabinetry and central island, forms a stylish hub for everyday living and entertaining. Aluminium sliding doors open onto the garden, seamlessly connecting the interior with the outside space. For added comfort, a discreetly integrated air conditioning system has been installed within this room, with further units located in several areas of the house.

The ground floor is completed by a practical utility room, a study, and a cloakroom.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefiting from its own en suite facilities. The principal suite is particularly impressive, offering an extensive range of built-in wardrobes and a luxurious four-piece en suite bathroom.

Outside
The property is approached via electronic double gates, providing both privacy and security. A generous gravel driveway offers ample off-road parking and leads to the detached barn. This versatile building lends itself to a variety of potential uses, including an annexe, income-generating accommodation, or hobby/vehicle storage, subject to the relevant permissions. A section has already been converted to create an external office with a cloakroom, providing an ideal work-from-home solution.

The landscaped grounds, which back onto open countryside, have been thoughtfully designed to take full advantage of the setting. A large wraparound patio terrace provides excellent space for outdoor entertaining, complemented by a particularly attractive covered gazebo area.
