5 bedroom detached house

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this attractive and substantial period home, occupying a mature plot of around 0.6 acres (stms) on the sought after Gayton Road in Kings Lynn. The property offers generous room proportions and displays a wealth of character features throughout; from original fireplaces and flooring to the impressive domed ceilings in some of the bedrooms. The private gardens include an expanse of lawn, an established vegetable garden and a variety of trees, as well as plenty of parking space and a timber cart shed.

ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed through the porch into the spacious reception hall, which still displays the original oak herringbone flooring and is flooded with natural light from a window over the stairs. The ground floor provides versatile reception space, including a dual aspect sitting room with a door to the veranda, a superbly proportioned formal dining room and a characterful snug, with two radial window lights. All three reception rooms have their original fireplaces and other period features.

The 28ft kitchen/breakfast room is a superb family space, comprising an extensive range of storage units under fitted work surfaces which extend into a breakfast bar and incorporate a free-standing range cooker and an integrated dishwasher. The kitchen also provides generous space for a table with chairs, along with other furniture. Between the hall and kitchen there is a useful lobby with fitted storage and a utility area, whilst to the other side of the kitchen there is a door into the boot room.

Linking the kitchen and dining room is the more recently added garden room, which provides additional reception space with views of the garden and double doors opening out to the terrace. On the ground floor there is also a large fifth bedroom, which could also serve as a play room, home office or gym.

The first floor bedroom accommodation is arranged around the bright and spacious landing, which is also equipped with plenty of built-in storage. The master bedroom is a delightful feature, with a dressing room, en-suite shower room and dual aspect views over the grounds. Bedroom 2 provides exceptional proportions as a double room, whilst bedrooms 3 and 4 are both more compact double or generous single rooms. The bedrooms are served by a luxuriously appointed 4-piece family bathroom, with a central roll-top bath.

In all, the floor extends to a little under 3,000 sq./ft.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached over a gated driveway leading onto a sweeping shingle driveway, which extends along the eastern boundary and to the front of the house, where there is a timber-framed cart shed on the right and a garage on the left. The south facing front garden is predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of well-established trees around the perimeter, which add to the sense of privacy within the grounds. Around the house there is an elevated terrace which extends to two sides, with a covered veranda to the west of the house, with doors leading back into the sitting room, dining room and garden room. Other features include a vegetable garden with raised beds, a greenhouse and garden shed.
