Full Details for 8 Bedroom Detached for sale in Dereham, NR20 :
Sowerbys are pleased to offer this striking Grade II listed period property, occupying a prominent position in the pretty mid-Norfolk village of Foulsham. The handsome Georgian façade is of red brick construction, with bay windows either side of a central entrance portico. With over 4,000 square feet of internal floor space, Ivy House provides exceptionally versatile accommodation over three floors, which has been further enhanced by the inclusion of an original barn into the main house. The barn currently provides additional reception rooms and space to accommodate the owners hobby; however, it could be adapted to form a self-contained unit which could possibly be used to generate income.
The ground floor accommodation briefly comprises two front reception rooms, a bedroom with en-suite wet room, a central kitchen/breakfast room, snug, family room and conservatory. Three separate staircases rise to the first floor, where there are four bedrooms, family bathroom and office/hobby room; with the middle staircase rising into the roof space where there are four further bedrooms.
Outside, there are generous grounds attached to the house with a walled kitchen garden and a secure driveway with a barn style garage/workshop. Gated access at the east side of the walled garden leads into an L-shaped paddock (approx. 0.6 acres sts) which adjoins the Church yard and also houses a delightful hexagonal summer house with a fireplace.
FOULSHAM Foulsham is a typical Norfolk village just off the A1067 Norwich to Fakenham road on a road that goes to and comes from virtually nowhere. The name means "Homestead of the birds". The lovely 14th century 'Church of The Holy Innocent' was burnt severely in a fire in 1770 and was rebuilt with its 15th century tower intact. Foulsham is 11 miles from Dereham with its wide range of shops, schools and facilities. Foulsham is in the Reepham High School catchment area. It's 30 miles from King's Lynn with its direct rail link to Cambridge and London and just 18 miles from Norwich with its rail link to Liverpool Street and Norwich Airport, which is the perfect intercontinental gateway through Schiphol Airport.
