A handsome Georgian home in about 6 acres.
Description
The Property
High Park is a fine Georgian home, built in 1830 in the Queen Anne style, and set in a wonderfully rural location at the end of a sweeping drive yet convenient for access to the A11 and to Norwich.
The elegant home has over 5000 sq ft of living space, with plenty of natural light through large sash windows and well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings, typical of the architectural period. Double aspect bays in the drawing room, and single bay in the dining room, all full height, give further gravitas together with picture rails, Georgian fireplaces and cornicing throughout. Complementing the formal rooms is an excellent open plan kitchen/ living/dining room on the western side of the house, providing a brilliant space with Sicilian marble floor with under floor heating and fine views of the garden. Additional rooms such as the gym, spacious boot room/utility and a part open plan snug and dining room all add to the lifestyle the house affords.
The bedrooms are equally as impressive, with a double aspect principal bedroom enjoying built in wardrobes and en suite shower room, a guest bedroom with en suite shower room and six further bedrooms, all double rooms, over the first and second floor together with two bathrooms. There is an adaptability to all the space enjoyed, with the top floor providing a games room also. All rooms enjoy views of the surrounding gardens.
Outside
High Park stands in grounds of about 6 acres and is approached via wrought iron electric gates and a shingle drive leading to a turning area at the front of the house. The parking area is adjacent to the house and outbuildings, which contain the triple cart shed. The house sits well back from a country lane, thus creating a wonderfully private and secluded location.
Approaching the house there are two unfenced paddocks either side of the drive, ideal for equestrian use or wild flower meadows and to the east and west of the house are formal areas of garden, with large expanses of lawn interspersed with a mixture of broad leaf and coniferous trees and surrounded by mature hedging. To the west of the house is a substantial terraced area, ideal for outside dining and entertaining with a south to south-west facing aspect, which overlooks the outdoor heated swimming pool.
The outbuildings adjoin the house, with a 36ft x 14ft garage and workshop, a three bay carport and a further store. Planning permission was granted under the application number 2002/1458, which has been partly implemented and signed off, and is therefore in perpetuity. This is for for the creation of a 1 / 2 bedroom annexe with a kitchen, sitting room and bathroom. In front of the house are some delightful rose beds and turning area.
Location
High Park is located to the west of the village of Tacolneston, approximately 10 miles to the south of Norwich. The village has a primary school, with post office and village shop in the neighbouring village of Bunwell. The popular market town of Wymondham is circa 4 miles to the west, with a Waitrose supermarket, independent shops and amenities together with renowned education at Wymondham High School and Wymondham College. The town has a train station with direct lines to Cambridge and Norwich and provides access to the A11.
