"Guide Price £750,000 to £775,000. Victorian five-bed home in Wicklewood with glass gable extension, luxury interiors, landscaped gardens, outdoor kitchen, triple garage, and stunning countryside views."
The Property
Set in the picturesque Norfolk village of Wicklewood, just moments from the historic market town of Wymondham, this extraordinary five-bedroom Victorian cottage has been thoughtfully reimagined for 21st-century living. Originally constructed in the mid-to-late 1800s, the house has recently undergone an ambitious transformation, anchored by a breathtaking architectural extension featuring a dramatic glass gable end – a bold yet harmonious counterpoint to the traditional brick-built elevations of the original dwelling.
Upon entry, you are met with a spacious hallway, with tiled flooring that extends through to a contemporary, open-plan kitchen and family room. Flooded with natural light, the space exudes quality – a sociable hub that truly feels like the heart of the home. A striking bespoke kitchen with clean lines, integrated appliances, and a contrasting colour palette is sure to impress. A separate utility room and a downstairs shower room make it perfect for practical family living – and messy pets.
Stepping off the kitchen and into the original home, a cosy formal dining room awaits. With exposed beams, herringbone flooring, and a log burner, it creates a warm contrast between old and new. The property also offers an additional reception room, complete with a wood burner – ideal for those winter nights.
Upstairs, the property benefits from five well-proportioned bedrooms with fantastic field views. The family bathroom has been thoughtfully designed with a contemporary edge, offering a luxurious and calming, retreat-like feel. Fully tiled in sleek, modern finishes, a freestanding bath takes centre stage, complemented by a separate walk-in shower, modern basin, and WC. Subtle LED lighting enhances the clean lines and ambient feel, creating a spa-like atmosphere.
The principal bedroom is blessed with the glass gable end, providing rolling views of the countryside. A vaulted ceiling, bespoke automatic blinds, and an en-suite that matches the quality of the family bathroom create a tranquil space to unwind.
Externally
Stepping outside, the quality continues with a landscaped garden designed for both elegance and outdoor living, featuring manicured lawns, structured topiary, and box hedging. A porcelain patio offers the perfect spot for outdoor furniture and relaxation, while decking with integrated spotlights sets the scene for evening entertaining. A bespoke outdoor kitchen and dining area make al fresco living effortless.
The property also benefits from a large driveway and a triple garage, providing generous parking and storage.
