Inside, the character continues with a combination of an uplifting modern touch. The entrance hall is a favourite talking point, featuring a barrelled ceiling that sits between the two reception rooms, which very subtly creates an easily navigable flow throughout the ground floor. The dining room is very warm and atmospheric, featuring a lovely period fireplace and ceiling beams running throughout, this space has been enjoyed to its full potential many times and has been a true joy to entertain in.
The sitting room currently offers a more modern space to relax and unwind, however still retains the character of the recessed fireplace and lovely wood-burner. The kitchen breakfast room has also been sympathetically modernised, creating a smooth blend between old and new- a lovely environment to spend an evening cooking overlooking the peaceful garden and socialising with loved ones. The addition of a cloakroom downstairs, is ideal for all the guests when entertaining.
On the first floor there are three spacious bedrooms. The principle boasts views to both the front and rear as well as a modern en-suite bath and shower room Two further bedrooms also enjoy views via the leaded windows and share a main bathroom.

DRAYTON Just five miles from the county capital, but a world away from the urban bustle, Drayton is a city commuter's dream, with easy access to the A47 for cross-country routes. But to see this pretty village as a suburban spot misses the charm of this much sought-after historic place, voted the fourth best place to live in 2015.
The pretty suburban village offers all the amenities you could need including a post office, butchers, dentist, doctors' surgery, pharmacy, and a Tesco Superstore. There are plenty of eateries to enjoy too, The Cock Inn and The Red Lion are two popular local pubs, there is also The Willows café bistro, which offers both eat in and take away.
Drayton has a wonderful community, St Margaret's Church holds regular services and for those with young children there is a playpark just next door. The village hall hosts a wide range of clubs and events such as patchwork quilting, toddler groups, dance and performing arts, and the local flower club to name a few.
The Marriott's Way, a 26-mile footpath, bridleway and cycle route, between Aylsham and Norwich runs through the village, and the paths are popular with families for weekend walks, runners and horse riders enjoying the rural setting and wildlife.
With Norwich's shopping centres just a few miles away, the neighbouring village of Taverham also has its own country shopping centre and garden nursery, along with a library, golf course, country club and local pub. Close enough to the city, yet a rural idyll with amenities, it's easy to see why Drayton is so popular.
