Property description
This substantial and versatile detached family home occupies a highly desirable rural village location, with panoramic field views to front. Approached via a generous frontage, and set back from the road, ample off road parking can be found, leading to the detached double garage. Accommodation is deceptively spacious and comprises reception hall, sitting room with feature fire place, study, cloakroom, family/bed room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and dining room to the ground floor. The first floor is equally impressive, offering four double bedrooms including the master and guest bedrooms with walk in wardrobes and en suite shower rooms, and further family bathroom. The rear garden offers a bright and private rear aspect, whilst being mainly laid to lawn. The property is located on a shared and private driveway with only one neighbour, and sits next to the highly regarded village school and playing field.
Alpington is a small village situated some five miles south east of the Cathedral City of Norwich and closely associated with the neighbouring village of Yelverton. The village itself is just south of the A146 and is contiguous with Yelverton to the south with which it shares its facilities, which include a duck pond, village hall and St. Mary's church. Further amenities can be found in the larger village of Poringland, whilst a short drive takes you to the City Centre itself.
DIRECTIONS Leave Norwich via the A146 Loddon Road turning right sign posted Yelverton. Follow the road, entering the village of Yelverton, which becomes Alpington. Continue along where the road becomes Nichols Road. The property can be found on the right hand side, indicated by our For Sale board.
The property is approached via a sweeping shingled driveway providing ample off-road parking and turning space whilst providing access to the main property, gated rear garden and detached double garage.
