Dating back to 1820, Grove House is a Grade II Listed building originally constructed as a vicarage for Marham church. The original church is believed to have been situated at the top of the hill within the garden.
If privacy is a top priority, this beautiful home certainly meets that need-it is somewhat secluded and challenging to find. However, as soon as you pull into the drive leading to the property, Grove House makes an impressive statement.
Entering the house feels like stepping back in time, yet it maintains a contemporary feel. At the front, two equally sized reception rooms provide a perfect environment for relaxation. Both rooms feature fireplaces, original sash windows, and original shutters, brimming with charm and character.
Towards the rear of the property, you'll be drawn to the central hub-the open-plan kitchen/dining room. With views over the gardens and easy access to the outdoor heated swimming pool, this space becomes the focal point during summertime.
No property of this calibre would be complete without a snug or games room, designed to be versatile, enhancing the holiday-like atmosphere of this home.
Upstairs, the landing leads to five double bedrooms, a bathroom, and a separate shower room. Four of the bedrooms come with built-in wardrobes. Like the rooms downstairs, these are filled with original features, with the original floorboards adding an extra touch of elegance.
The sweeping drive, garage, and workshop provide ample parking for several vehicles. The grounds are well-established, featuring mature trees and beautiful lawns-perfect for a game of croquet or kicking a ball around.
On warmer days, the courtyard and outdoor pool offer entertainment for family and friends. The heated pool can be enjoyed even in the middle of winter.
This superb former vicarage, set on a plot measuring nearly 1.5 acres, offers a private and tranquil location. It is available for sale with no upward chain.
