GUIDE PRICE £675,000 - £700,000 With fields to front and rear, Rowan House enjoys stunning countryside views, peace and quiet, and a charming village setting. A wonderful family home for our vendors, it's on the market for the first time in over 30 years.

Stunning views and an idyllic rural setting within a charming Norfolk village…it's easy to see why our vendors chose this spot to build their family home. Rowan House has been designed to perfectly suit their lifestyle, it's been a wonderful home and a safe environment in which to raise their children. With little having changed in the time they've lived here - over 30 years - there are still delightful walks on the doorstep, a small, friendly community and a real sense of peace.

Sitting comfortably behind an historic brick wall, the generous gardens wrap around the home providing a mature leafy setting in which to take in the tranquillity and sounds of nature. In quintessential Norfolk style, Rowan House displays a beautiful flint façade.

Beyond the front entrance door, the double height reception hall feels welcoming, calm and spacious. The kitchen/dining room and sunroom has established itself as the heart of the home and one can easily see why; a space flooded with natural light and where the whole family can gather. The newly fitted Shaker style kitchen demonstrates the care that has been taken to maintain and improve the home over the years, ensuring it remains suited to a modern way of living. The study, off the dining room, provides the ideal solution for days spent working from home.

The sitting room adds a nod to tradition, with a decorative fire surround encasing the comforting log-burner. A spacious room, this feels like the perfect place to relax after a busy day. The snug is also a comfortable and versatile room which can be adapted to suit your needs; perhaps a playroom or a ground floor bedroom.

Finally, the ground floor shower room can be accessed from the garden through the utility room - making it incredibly useful after muddy walks or days on the beach.

Upstairs, the spacious gallery landing gives access to the five bedrooms. All the bedrooms are double in size, with the principal featuring an extensive built-in wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom, making for a luxurious suite. Of the remaining four bedrooms, two have built-in wardrobes, and all share the family bathroom - with sumptuous free-standing bathtub and separate shower. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect about the sleeping quarters are the spectacular views from every single bedroom.

Thoughtfully designed, the outside space is truly magical, having matured over the years. To the front, the walled garden adds a sense of privacy, whilst the driveway leads around to the rear, where there's ample parking space together with a garage. The rear garden is well established with mature trees, abundant shrubs, and well-planned planting. The patio seating area is a sunny spot in which to relax, whilst the generous lawn provides plenty of space for games or for children to run off steam.

In a unique location, beautiful and yet comfortable, Rowan House is truly a wonderful home, perhaps a forever home which can grow alongside your family as you make your own memories here.

HARPLEY A small village between King's Lynn and Fakenham, Harpley is conveniently located close to the A148 with excellent links to King's Lynn, Norwich and further afield. It's also within easy reach of the beautiful north Norfolk coast. The village itself is bordered by Peddars Way, the ancient trade route linking Suffolk with Holme-next-the-Sea in north Norfolk. Once used by Romans to move troops, today it provides a wealth of walking and cycling routes around rural Norfolk. There's plenty of history to discover here: north west of the village are remains of Bronze Age round barrows, and a Neolithic long barrow stands on Harpley Common.

The Rose and Crown is in the village centre, a welcoming village pub serving excellent food, popular with locals and visitors alike. There's also a village hall and a primary school, and local shops can be found nearby at East Rudham, Great Massingham and Bircham.

Harpley dates to the time of Domesday Book - take a stroll around the village to take in the many historic buildings. St Lawrence Church features beautiful carvings including the south door, thought to be one of the finest examples in the country.
