We are pleased to offer to the market this remarkable Grade II Listed country home located on the edge of Long Stratton, offering nearly 6,900 sq ft of stylish, characterful accommodation. Dating back to the 17th century with a later Georgian façade, the property has been extensively renovated by the current owners, blending original period features with modern conveniences and high-quality fittings. Situated in in a popular area on a main road with easy access, the property would be ideal for a range of uses including a boutique hotel, Airbnb or private entertaining at scale, as well as an ideal family home. 

The ground floor includes an entrance hall leading to formal drawing and dining rooms with feature fireplaces, alongside a stunning kitchen/breakfast room in the older part of the house. The kitchen, with a central island and blue cabinetry beneath quartz worktops, creates a sociable focal point. Additional versatile spaces include a second sitting room ideal as a study, playroom or TV room, plus a butler’s pantry, utility, cloakroom and rear lobby.

The first floor offers four to five bedrooms, including two with en suite shower rooms in the Georgian addition, while the remaining rooms are served by a four-piece family bathroom. A flexible fifth bedroom is currently used as a playroom/ironing room with its own laundry facilities. The second floor is dedicated to an impressive principal suite spanning over 30 ft with vaulted ceiling, dressing room and large en suite, creating a luxurious retreat. Two further bedrooms are also on this floor, one with en suite and the other currently used as a home office, along with useful loft storage.

Set within approximately two acres, the property is approached via an in-and-out gravel driveway with ample parking and garaging within a coach house. Versatile outbuildings offer potential for conversion (subject to permissions). The mature grounds feature specimen trees, shrubs and hedging for privacy, along with a gravelled entertaining area set against a high wall, creating a Mediterranean feel. Located just north of Long Stratton, the property benefits from local amenities including shops, schools, a leisure centre and GP surgery, while Norwich, around 12 miles north, provides extensive retail, cultural and educational offerings, including the University of East Anglia.
