A four-bedroom home thought to have links to one of Norfolk's most recogniseable estates has come up for sale.

The Old Presbytery in Oxborough, Norfolk, is listed for sale with Sowerbys for offers over £850,000 and is believed to be linked to nearby Oxburgh Hall.

The property dates back to the 16th century and features pretty parterre-style gardens and a horseshoe driveway out the front, as well as beautiful brick and flintwork and decorative chimneys.

Adele Norris, senior marketing specialist at Sowerbys, says: “I think this [house] is just beautiful.

“The in and out drive to drop off friends and family attending winter dinner parties, the garden bursting with colour for summer gatherings, morning coffee with the panoramic windows…”

The property also includes two further reception rooms, for when the family wants a bit of peace and quiet, and there’s a study, which could be used for those who need to work from home or be repurposed as a playroom.

According to Sowerbys, one of the reasons the current owners purchased the property the size of its bedrooms, which are all well-proportioned doubles with en suites and located on the first floor.

The views from every one of the bedrooms are pretty special, too; those at the front overlook Oxburgh Hall and those at the rear look out over the home's nicely landscaped gardens, with field views beyond.

The grounds surrounding the Old Presbytery extend to around three quarters of an acre and include a patio, lawns and garage and carport.
