4 bedroom house to rent

Alexander & Co are proud to present a substantial Farmhouse located only fifteen minutes’ drive from Norwich city centre. The property, which has recently had some internal and external updating to include redecoration and new floorings, is immaculately presented and available now.

Upon arriving you are greeted by the gated entrance, opening to an expansive driveway with room for more parking than many will need! The parking at the front of the property, originally the rear, provides you with access to the garage, house and gate for the rear garden.

As you enter the property, the entrance hall leads right through to the other side of the house and down to the garage. First on your right is a room ideal for a small study or coat room, next is a door to an unexpected room which sits halfway between ground and first floors, flooded with light from three large windows on two sides which has previously been used as a snug but could easily be a fifth bedroom. Beyond the understairs storage you will find the living room measuring more than eight meters in length, stretching from the front to back of the property. From the living room you have a conservatory providing access out to the gardens.

On the opposite side of the hallway is the traditional Farmhouse style kitchen, complete with oil fired Aga. With a variety of wall and floor cabinets the room still offers ample space for a table in the middle of the room whilst across the secondary section of hallway you will find a bay fronted room with bi-folding glass doors which would likely be the family dining room. There is also a utility with plumbing for your washing machine and condensing tumble dryer, WC and access to the garage on the ground floor.

Moving up the wide staircase to the first floor, you will find four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The large principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and views across the gardens to farmland. The first bathroom is fully tiled and offers a four-piece suite. The second bedroom is another large double room with an ample storage cupboard which also houses a hot water cylinder. This room has two points of entry and on the far side you will find the second bathroom, also fully tiled but with shower over bath. Overlooking the front of the property you will find bedrooms three and four. Both rooms are good sized double rooms and have their own doors from the landing as well as an interconnecting door. The fourth bedroom also has a door leading down to the mid-level room previously mentioned.

On the second floor there are two large loft rooms, both carpeted and insulated however these are for use as storage. The landing area and one loft room offer various plug sockets, potentially suitable for use as an office area.

Externally the gardens are vast; predominantly laid to lawn and boarded by mature trees and hedging. From the side of the conservatory side of the house you will find an area previously used as a tennis court, wrapping around the rear of the property back through to the old driveway and road. There is a concrete pad and external electrical point located near to the kitchen window, previously used for a hot tub.

The central heating and Aga are oil fired, there is uPVC double glazing throughout the property and water is provided from a private borehole, managed by the landlord. The property is also on a septic tank which is the responsibility of the tenant to cover the cost of emptying – most recently the cost was approximately £150.00 and is usually required annually. Water is charged by the landlord to the tenant, currently charged at £350.00 per annum, from October to September incl.

Ofcom broadband and phone coverage checker suggests that Standard broadband is available to the property whilst mobile phone coverage is likely outdoors and limited indoors across EE, Three, O2 and Vodafone.
