Description

Signature by Websters are delighted to offer Amberley Lodge, an exceptional modern detached family home offering almost 3,000 sq ft, complemented by a separate three-bedroom self-contained annexe, integrated one-bedroom flat and detached studio. In total, almost 6,000 sq ft of highly versatile accommodation creates an outstanding opportunity for multi-generational living, extended family occupation, guest accommodation or home working.

HOUSE

The principal house provides a substantial five-bedroom family home arranged over two floors, with generous reception and living accommodation and a well-appointed contemporary finish. A particular feature is the integrated one-bedroom flat, which can be completely independent from the main house or incorporated into the principal accommodation, providing exceptional flexibility for changing family requirements.

The separate three-bedroom annexe is a further significant asset, providing genuinely self-contained accommodation arranged over two floors. Offering its own living and bedroom accommodation, it is ideally suited to extended family, older children, guests or those seeking independent living space, while also offering considerable potential for a variety of ancillary uses.

Completing this exceptional collection is a detached former garage, now converted to create a versatile two-level studio with kitchenette and shower room. Together, the main five-bedroom house, independent one-bedroom flat, separate three-bedroom annexe and studio provide almost 6,000 sq ft of accommodation and an exceptionally rare degree of flexibility, making Amberley Lodge particularly well suited to modern family life and multi-generational living.

OUTSIDE

Approached through entrance gates, Amberley Lodge immediately impresses with its long private driveway, winding through established woodland before revealing the property in its beautifully secluded setting. Set well back from the road and entirely surrounded by mature trees, the approach creates an exceptional sense of arrival, with the house enjoying a remarkable level of privacy within its own grounds.

Extending to approximately 2.3 acres (stms), the grounds have been thoughtfully maintained to provide a superb balance of formal gardens and natural woodland. Expansive lawns provide generous space for families to enjoy, while the mature planting and established trees create a picturesque backdrop throughout the seasons.

To the rear of the house, a generous patio terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxing whilst overlooking the surrounding gardens. Whether enjoying morning coffee or evening gatherings with family and friends, the outside space is perfectly designed to make the most of its peaceful surroundings.

Practicality is equally well considered, with ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles, together with a useful car port providing sheltered parking and additional storage. Rarely does a property combine such extensive grounds, complete seclusion and a truly enchanting woodland setting, making Amberley Lodge an exceptional countryside home in a wonderfully private location.

LOCATION

Amberley Lodge enjoys an exceptional setting on the edge of the desirable village of Great Witchingham, occupying a wonderfully discreet position. Set well back from the road and almost entirely concealed behind its own private woodland, the property is approached via a long driveway that creates an immediate sense of exclusivity, tranquillity and arrival long before the house itself comes into view.

Great Witchingham is a charming and well-regarded village offering a peaceful rural lifestyle whilst remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities. Nearby Reepham, Lenwade and Fakenham provide an excellent selection of shops, cafés, pubs, schooling and essential services, while the surrounding area offers an abundance of scenic walks, cycling routes and opportunities to enjoy the beautiful landscape.

The location is perfectly placed for those seeking both countryside living and convenience, with excellent road connections via the A1067 and nearby A47 providing straightforward access to Norwich, Dereham and the wider county. Norwich city centre offers an outstanding choice of shopping, dining, cultural attractions, highly regarded schools, the University of East Anglia and the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital.

Combining complete privacy with exceptional accessibility, Amberley Lodge offers a rare opportunity to enjoy an idyllic woodland setting without compromising on convenience. Hidden from view yet superbly connected, it is an outstanding location for those seeking a peaceful country retreat within comfortable reach of Norwich and North Norfolk's beautiful coastline.
