Description
Guide Price £700,000 to £750,000.
Upon entering Hillcrest, you are welcomed by an exceptionally spacious entrance hall, currently arranged as a secondary sitting room, where the owners naturally gather around the fire in the winter months. This impressive introduction leads to three reception rooms, a ground floor shower room and the staircase.
The principal sitting room enjoys a bay window overlooking the delightful garden – a subtle nod to the home’s name – and features a charming brick-built fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The dining room, complete with a fireplace and inset log burner, flows into the modern kitchen, ideal for hosting, while a practical utility room to the rear provides garden access.
A particularly versatile room completes the ground floor. Currently used as a play room, it was designed with multi-generational living in mind and could easily serve as a ground floor bedroom, with a shower room opposite. This ‘wing’ offers potential to be closed off for privacy, and there is scope to extend further, subject to the necessary consents.
Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, three enjoying far-reaching views across the Norfolk countryside. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite, with the remaining rooms served by the family bathroom.
Set within just over an acre (stms), the grounds include space for growing vegetables, distant views of the church and ample room for family life outdoors. A double garage and generous shingle driveway provide parking for several vehicles. There is further potential to extend by infilling the existing ‘L’ shape, subject to the relevant permissions.
