Guide Price £495,000 to £525,000.

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of mid-Norfolk, Fornost is a well-appointed home that has been lovingly held by the same family since it was built in the 1970s. A much-loved residence, it offers wonderfully versatile accommodation across two floors, blending space, comfort and a true sense of home.

Stepping into the welcoming reception hall, you are drawn into the beautifully light-filled sitting room, where a striking teak parquet floor and dual-aspect views over the garden create a warm and elegant space. This flows effortlessly into the dining room, which in turn leads to the garden room – a delightful spot to relax and take in the changing seasons. The kitchen provides excellent storage and workspace, with room for a breakfast table, making it the heart of everyday living. A versatile family room lends itself perfectly to a home office, playroom or hobby space, while the utility room and separate cloakroom add to the home’s practicality.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, offer peaceful retreats, with one enjoying its own dressing room and en suite shower room. A further family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The first-floor views are truly breathtaking, with rolling countryside stretching out on two sides, offering a daily connection to nature and stunning sunsets across the Norfolk landscape.

Recent improvements to the property include a newly installed wood burner last year. Within the last 2 years, a new boiler and oil tank, helping to enhance energy efficiency and potentially improve the EPC rating. These updates add peace of mind and modern performance to an already well-maintained home.

Outside, the property is approached via a driveway providing parking and access to a detached double garage. The south-westerly garden is a delight, with established planting, a vegetable patch, herb garden, a variety of specimen trees, a terrace for outdoor dining and mature boundary hedging ensuring privacy.

A home of character, space and tranquillity, Fornost is ready to welcome its next chapter.
