See inside one of the most expensive homes for sale in Norfolk. Property editor Caroline Culot reports on Field House in Brancaster, for sale for £2.4 million with Bedfords.
This renovated farmhouse offers the idyllic lifestyle so many wealthy buyers are looking for; it's in a superb location and has grounds of 2.9 acres with a swimming pool and a tennis court.
The house was built in around 1900 of knapped flint elevations with brick quoins and 'soldier' courses under pan-tiled roofs; architectural features also include prominent gables with porthole windows in the attic so boasting some super detail. It is for sale with Bedfords www.bedfords.co.ukHowever you also have classic proportions with two principal receptions off a hallway and a family room with French windows opening to the terrace.
The kitchen is fitted with hand-built cabinets providing cupboards and drawers with beehive handles to match those seen around the house itself and I love the bevelled door handles, with real keys to doors and the monkey tail window latches.
The flooring is oak and the owners are willing to leave the oil-fired Aga if it is wanted. The dining room adjoins the kitchen, as does a utility room with a boot room beyond and a games room with access to the terrace and swimming pool. There are also two cloakrooms on the ground floor along with access to the cellar.
Upstairs, is a master bedroom suite with a double aspect bedroom, walk-in wardrobe, dressing room and en suite with a bath, large walk-in shower cubicle and there is a second en suite bedroom, two further bedrooms, a bathroom and a laundry room. The second floor has two further bedrooms, both served by their own bathrooms, and a playroom. Outside are gorgeous gardens.
