4 bedroom detached house for sale

Your Own Piece of Rural South Norfolk Tucked away within approximately 13 acres of private grounds, Holly Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial countryside residence surrounded by its own woodland, gardens and meadowland. Approached via a long private driveway that sweeps between two paddock-style fields, the property enjoys an exceptional sense of privacy and seclusion whilst remaining conveniently positioned for access to Wymondham, Norwich, the A11 and benefitting from full fibre broadband. Situated at the heart of the estate, the farmhouse is encircled by its land, creating a truly unique rural setting. The grounds have been carefully cultivated to provide a wonderful balance of practicality, recreation and wildlife habitat. An established orchard offers a variety of fruit-bearing trees, whilst a productive vegetable garden presents the perfect opportunity for those seeking a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Areas of mature woodland, wildflower meadows and gardens combine to create a haven for nature and an idyllic environment to enjoy throughout the seasons. Complementing the main residence are a collection of substantial outbuildings, providing extensive storage, workshop and garaging facilities. These include a triple garage and adjoining workshop (with cavity, insulated walls), large barn store with lean-to tractor and log store, open-fronted low-level barn and an open fronted car port providing further space for two cars and a trailer plus a series of old stables currently used for storage. The additional outbuildings offer enormous scope for hobbyists, vehicle enthusiasts, equestrian pursuits or those operating a business from home (subject to any necessary consents). The property itself is thought to date from 1650 – 1700 and has been thoughtfully extended over the years, combining the former cow shed into a fully refurbished and exceptionally versatile living space. The generous ground floor accommodation centres around a substantial kitchen/dining room, featuring a stunning fireplace with a wood burner, original exposed timber beams and a practical pantry. Positioned between the kitchen and principal reception room is a delightful sunroom, enjoying direct access onto a patio and the gardens providing the perfect space to relax whilst taking in the surrounding rural views. The main living room offers a further characterful fireplace with wood burner and enjoys attractive outlooks across the gardens. A ground floor bedroom with en-suite shower room is located just off this space, ideal for guests or multi-generational living. Further accommodation includes an entrance porch, utility room with WC and an additional reception room which offers excellent versatility as a dining room, games room, snug, study or second sitting room, whilst also providing access to the first-floor accommodation. Upstairs, the property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms served by a family bathroom, providing ample accommodation for growing families. Enhancing the home's efficiency, solar panels have been installed alongside a battery storage system, helping to support a more sustainable lifestyle. This is a property that offers far more than simply a home; it provides a unique lifestyle opportunity where privacy, nature and space combine to create a truly special Norfolk countryside retreat.
