5 bedroom detached house for sale

This well-loved detached residence has been in the same family for over 40 years and was formerly Great Bircham School, a Victorian building converted in the 1980s. With an internal area extending to in excess of 2700 sq ft, the house is perfect for a family, with the added flexibility of a self-contained apartment - ideal for multigenerational living or as a holiday let. The kitchen is the heart of this delightful property, with a soaring vaulted ceiling, a striking picture window looking out at an ancient oak tree and an all important Aga, completing the bucolic vibe. There is a dining room (currently used as a workroom) and a generous triple aspect reception room with doors opening to a patio and the garden beyond. The self-contained apartment, which is connected to the main body of the house, comprises a living space open to a kitchenette, a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a private section of garden. The ground floor accommodation also includes a welcoming entrance hall, a useful utility room and a guest cloakroom. Upstairs, off a large first floor landing, is a main bedroom with an en-suite shower room, three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. To the front of the house is a driveway suitable for parking at least four cars and to the rear a garden, a secluded space which is mainly laid to lawn and offers two outbuildings. Great Bircham is a charming village not far from Sandringham. It boasts The Kings Head Country Hotel (a great pub with rooms), the fantastic Bircham General Stores and Cafe, a Cricket Club and a thriving local community.
