6 bedroom detached house for sale

THE WHITE HOUSE
The White House is a substantial, attractive and detached white rendered house, and the only one of its type on this sought-after north Norfolk development. Arguably the jewel in the crown.

Whilst Avada Homes has built its unrivalled reputation for creating outstanding and beautifully finished properties in north Norfolk over the last two decades, they are also held in equally high regard on the south coast, and in particular the Sandbanks area, where they have been responsible for creating a number of stunning 'Super Homes.'

It is the experience of building such exclusive and individual homes that they have drawn upon with The White House.

These are homes which care about you and your family as much as they do the landscape - with high energy efficiency and sustainability at their heart.

Freedom, space and time together are some of the most desired aspects of our lives today – and at Four Miles, that begins at home.

The White House is entered through an elegant stone portico and the large living room and L-shaped open plan kitchen/dining room are accessed off the grand central entrance hall.

The most important room of any house is, without doubt, the kitchen and about a third of the ground floor is given over to this hub of the family home. At its centre is the sociable island which doubles as a breakfast bar and there is ample space for a kitchen table for those cosy kitchen suppers. Reception rooms are accessed from the kitchen/dining room and could be used as a home office, snug/family room creating a wonderful and versatile space.

The third is the impressive living room, which is located at the other end of the house and is bathed in natural light due to its dual aspect. The bi-fold doors out to the rear garden create a sense of openness whilst seamlessly blending the indoors and out.

Take the staircase up to the first floor, where the four main double bedrooms lead off the central landing. The remaining two bedrooms are accessed via a separate staircase. The principal bedroom suite has fitted wardrobes as well as an en-suite bathroom with separate shower cubicle. Two further bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms, whilst the final three are served by two further shower rooms.

Outside, there are four parking spaces that are in addition to the integrated 9.5m long garage so ample space for cars, bikes, kayaks or a boat. The south facing rear garden is perfectly proportioned for a house of this size.  

DOCKING
Docking is arguably one of Norfolk's best hideaways, just four miles from the sea yet a comfortable breeze away from the coastal crowds in the heat of summer, and within a comfortable drive of the market towns of Fakenham and elegant Holt.

Dating back to Saxon times, Docking is one of Norfolk's highest points at 272ft and was once known as 'Dry Docking', because of its lack of drinking water. A well was sunk in the village in the 18th century and residents paid a farthing per bucket until a mains supply was installed in 1936. The small village played a key role in World War II when the RAF Docking airfield operated between 1940-1958, and nearby Docking Hall housed serving actors Richard Burton, Robert Hardy and Warren Mitchell during this time.

Today, a strong village community exists and Docking has a thriving nursery and primary school, and the heart-warming sound of young children enjoying playtime often echoes in the surrounding streets, as it has for centuries. Well-serviced, Docking also has a GP surgery, village store with Post Office, playing field, tennis court and bowling green, along with a popular fish and chip shop and good local, The Railway Inn.

Buyers are spoilt for choice with a wide range of property including traditional, brick and flint and whitewashed cottages, classic Georgian houses and a growing range of quality new-build homes.

You may be inspired to try your hand at The Good Life and grow your own, but if you lack a green thumb try the weekly farmer's market at the village's Ripper Memorial Hall. Held on Wednesday mornings, shoppers come from far afield to fill their baskets with super-fresh produce from local smallholders and jars and delicacies from Norfolk artisan producers.

Offering the best of coast and country, it's easy to see why Docking is such a sought-after spot.
