The Chalet

The Chalet is a generous detached family house with equestrian facilities including stable block, outbuildings, indoor ménage and paddocks in just over 8 acres. Built of brick rendered elevations under clay tile roof, the property has comfortable family accommodation throughout. Inside an entrance hall leads to a spacious dual aspect sitting room with wood burning stove. The kitchen dining room is bright and airy and is fully fitted with range cooker, wine fridge, dishwasher, multiple worktops and display cabinets. Upstairs is the principal bedroom with Jack and Jill bathroom and walk in wardrobe. There is another upstairs double bedroom and two downstairs double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes and a separate family shower room. The utility room leads through to an office/study with stairs up to a fifth bedroom, and a rear hall with shower room and internal access to the double garage.

Outside, the property enjoys comfortable gardens that are mostly laid to lawn to the front, rear and sides with mature hedge borders and a mixed variety of coniferous and broadleaf trees as well as a selection of fruit trees to the rear. Beyond the formal gardens are a range of outbuildings with a right of way access over a neighbouring driveway on the western boundary. These include a large steel frame stable block with six loose boxes, tack room and hay barn at one end, with large garage space and storage barn at the other. A large 30 metre by 15 metre indoor ménage and a neighbouring outbuilding with two workshops. There are five electric fenced paddocks and a large open paddock. The chalet is approached through electric gates onto a sweeping gravel drive with turning circle.

Neighbouring The Chalet on the western boundary is a large disused green waste facility called Double Bank Farm. This site has recently been subject to a planning application for the demolition of the existing buildings and the creation of nine executive family homes.

The Chalet is situated on the edge of the popular rural South Norfolk village of Carlton Rode with far reaching countryside views. The village is served by an active church and a primary school. The neighbouring village of Old Buckenham has a large common, two public houses, shop, primary and secondary schools. The market towns of Attleborough and Wymondham also provide further amenities with supermarkets and train stations with regular services to Norwich and Cambridge. The Cathedral City of Norwich, the regional centre is 16 miles to the north and offers a comprehensive range of commercial entertainment, cultural amenities and excellent schooling. Norwich has a main railway station providing regular service to London and Cambridge. On the North side of the City is Norwich international Airport which caters for both domestic and international flight destinations.
