Adjacent to this is the atmospheric dining room, also rich in character, with exposed beams and a fireplace.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three generously sized bedrooms and a separate cloakroom. The principal bedroom also features it's own en-suite WC.

ALDERFORD About ten miles north-west of Norwich, Alderford is a small, charming village, with a close community. Alderford Common provides a lovely place walks or blackberry picking, and Marriott's Way makes it an easy off-road cycle ride to the market town of Reepham, or further afield if you wish.

By road, Reepham is a little over three miles away, and offers a small supermarket, several cafes and Dial House Restaurant and Bed & Breakfast. Furthermore, there is an art gallery, several antique shops, a newsagent, post office, library, health care centre, pharmacy, butchers, a whole foods and hardware store, and there are two further public houses.

Also within a couple of miles is Great Witchingham/Lenwade, which has a good village school, as well as a local shop, public house, garage, butchers, bakers, and cafe, and neighbouring Swannington church is host to a regular lunch club.

The village is set within the renowned Reepham High School and Sixth Form Centre catchment area.

Its central position ensures easy access into Norwich, as well as the market towns of Aylsham and Dereham, and the delightful north Norfolk coast and Norfolk broads are within easy driving distance.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
