Rectory Farm
Langmere, Norfolk
£625,000
"An enchanting home standing proud in a glorious plot of half an acre (STS) set amongst idyllic rolling countryside."
The Property
Standing proud in a glorious plot of approximately half an acre (STS), this fine period home boasts every bit as much character and history as one might hope for from a 17th Century property. The enchanting grounds have been lovingly tended by the current vendors and now offer a thriving oasis of colour and life, amongst which the impeccably presented property provides the most idyllic and enviable way of life.
Upon entering, one is quickly greeted by the well preserved history of the home, with the kitchen/breakfast room offering an immediate homely embrace. Original flooring and exposed timbers adorn this room and make for a wonderful space to start the day. The sitting room offers a pleasant balance to the open-plan nature of the kitchen, of course with a stunning exposed brick fireplace at its heart.
In addition to the traditional receptions to the front , Rectory Farm reveals a selection of brilliantly versatile rooms to the rear providing invaluable versatility – a study, dining room/garden room and ground floor bedroom sit alongside the shower room and utility room to make for a deceptively flexible home amongst such timeless character.
Rising to the first floor, the two spacious bedrooms include the striking principal bedroom, complete with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and a wealth of built in cabinetry. The guest bedroom to the first floor is another double room and both are well-served by the central family bathroom.
Externally
As with any timeless home, the property itself is only half the story. The grounds of Rectory Farm are among the finest of any property of this nature, boasting the very best of inspired landscaping, masterful planting and a deep synergy with the surrounding environment.
Expanding to approximately half an acre (STS), the gardens have been lovingly curated to offer an abundance of features, sure to please all the family and provide all ages with a sanctuary to enjoy. Sheltered corners offer picturesque hideaways to grab a quiet moment whilst a manicured lawn pulls together all the terraces, interspersed with many a thriving flower bed. A summer house at the heart of the plot is a wonderful anchor to the grounds and a flourishing kitchen garden beyond this is a happy area to while away the hours enjoying the far reaching vistas of rolling countryside.
