Hall Orchards, Middleton, King's Lynn PE32

Tenure: Leasehold

There are homes that impress with their proportions, and others that transform everyday living. Occupying the top floor of the magnificent Grade II Listed Middleton Hall, this exceptional one-bedroom penthouse does both. With panoramic west-facing views across the neighbouring golf course, elegant period surroundings and beautifully maintained communal grounds, it offers a peaceful home with a wonderful sense of space.

Approached via a sweeping driveway, Middleton Hall is a striking Georgian residence rebuilt around 1800 for Edward Everard. Rich in history and character, it provides a fitting setting for this unique penthouse.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious reception room where three large west-facing sash windows flood the room with natural light and frame spectacular sunset views. The adjoining kitchen/dining room offers generous storage, ample work surfaces and space for everyday dining. The impressive principal bedroom occupies the curved section of the building, creating a spacious retreat with high ceilings and plenty of room for additional furniture, while a well-appointed bathroom completes the penthouse.

Outside, residents enjoy beautifully maintained communal grounds laid to lawn, with well established apple, pear, plum and damson trees, together with allocated parking and communal drying areas. The apartment also benefits from electric night storage heating.

Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King’s Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.

King Street, which runs from Tuesday Market Place to the Custom House, was once known as ‘Stockfish Row’ for the number of fish merchants that lived there. With a listed building every 26ft, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England.

With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour’s drive and a direct rail line into London King’s Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King’s Lynn continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route. It’s easy to see the appeal of this central location with a clutch of high street retailers and independent restaurants in the town’s Vancouver Centre. The Majestic Cinema and King’s Lynn Alive Corn Exchange are the place to catch a film or show, or check out what’s on at St George’s Guildhall, the UK’s largest surviving medieval guildhall, today a vibrant arts centre.
