Subtle opulence defines this noteworthy Taverham home, modestly placed beyond the frontage with a pale-rendered face and a broad gravelled approach that captures the eye. Inside, the reception hall opens to a formal yet inviting sitting room, where a deep blue backdrop and log burner create a distinguished focal point, while a versatile panelled study provides the perfect setting for home working. The free-flowing kitchen, dining, and family space combines herringbone flooring, a commanding island, and rustic brick accents with the natural light of wide bi-fold doors, delivering a continuous cohesion of contemporary style and countryside warmth. A purposeful design is elegantly addressed with a utility and lobby linking the garden, garage, and a ground-floor shower room finished with a crittall-style screen and mosaic flooring. Upstairs, the principal suite boasts a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and marble-inspired en-suite with dual basins, while further bedrooms are served by a four-piece family bathroom with matching marble accents. Beyond, landscaped gardens with a terrace, bespoke fire pit seating, and a versatile outbuilding complete a home that balances space, style, and refinement with effortless ease.
The Location
In the heart of Taverham, this home enjoys a setting that balances everyday ease with village charm. A short stroll brings you to a convenient Tesco, while nearby fish and chips, a Chinese takeaway, and regular visits from local food trucks add welcome variety to mealtimes. Families will find life made simple, with schools for all ages close at hand, as well as supermarkets such as Lidl for everyday essentials.
Local services, including a dentist, doctors’ surgery, fuel station, and even a garden centre, all contribute to the area’s thoughtful convenience. For those exploring, ascend down Sandy Lane to discover Langley Prep School, or pause to visit the Highland cows, a newly found local favourite that delights both children and adults alike.
Nature lovers will appreciate the nearby green spaces and the scenic Marriotts Way, offering peaceful routes for walking, cycling, or simply clearing the mind. The neighbourhood itself is well lit, making evening strolls both comfortable and reassuring. Everyday moments are enhanced by a sense of community, whether it’s coffee with friends at the local café, a relaxed takeaway from Domino’s, or a haircut at Rovella Hair in Thorpe Marriott.
When it comes to unwinding, characterful pubs such as The Red Lion and The Cock in Drayton are just minutes away, offering warm hospitality in timeless settings. And down the winding road a little further, you’ll reach Longwater and the A47, with the newly opened Norfolk Food Hall providing a showcase of local produce and flavours.
Travel, too, is effortlessly simple, with a bus stop just outside the home providing regular links into Norwich in around 20 minutes. For those venturing further afield, the ndr ensures swift connections to Norwich Airport and surrounding areas including Hellesdon.
Fakenham Road, Taverham
Gracefully withdrawn within the sought-after village of Taverham, this distinguished detached home conveys an air of quiet stature, balancing generosity of scale with an atmosphere of family living.
With considered additions and artful styling, it stands as a seldom-found home for those seeking adaptable living, where versatility is intertwined with an undercurrent modern setting.
Set back from the road, the property immediately draws admiration with its elevated position and timeless white-rendered exterior, a home that seldom fails to catch the eye of those passing by. A wide, shingled driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles, perfectly suiting the needs of a large family or those who delight in entertaining on a generous scale. The approach is enhanced further by a welcoming porch entrance, which opens into the reception hall, setting the tone for what unfolds throughout.
The sitting room offers a more formal environment, designed to be irresistibly cosy, where a deep blue backdrop frames a log burner nestled within the heart of a chimney breast that subtly leans outward – an architectural feature that forms a distinctive centrepiece.
A ground-floor study adds valuable flexibility, serving as the perfect home office with a stylish panelled backdrop that blends character with practicality.
At the core of the home lies the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining, and family space. Generous in scale yet intimate in atmosphere, this is a room where no area is wasted – a seamless marriage of contemporary comfort with a countryside-inspired aesthetic. Laid with classic herringbone flooring, the space is drenched in natural light courtesy of wide bi-fold doors that dissolve the boundary between indoors and out.
A central island commands attention, with sleek bar stools perched neatly beneath, offering an inviting spot for casual dining or morning coffee. Above, a rustic hanging light fitting ties effortlessly with the exposed brick backdrop along the far wall, adding warmth and depth. The kitchen itself is refined yet practical, featuring shaker-style cabinetry, brushed fixtures, and a suite of fully integrated appliances, complemented by a recessed niche perfectly designed for a statement fridge-freezer.
A matching utility room extends the home’s functionality, providing dedicated space for laundry and household organisation. From here, a versatile lobby offers direct access to the garden, garage, and a stylish ground-floor shower room, the latter finished with a crittall-style screen, mosaic-patterned flooring, and contemporary detailing, ideal for guests or family life.
Ascending the staircase, the upper floor reveals four beautifully proportioned bedrooms. The principal suite boasts a bespoke walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en-suite. Finished with marble-inspired tiling and dual his-and-hers basins, the room is bathed in light, creating a bright and indulgent setting for daily routines.
The additional bedrooms are equally well appointed, served by a family bathroom complete with a four-piece suite, cohesive marble accents and patterned flooring that subtly elevates the design.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The rear garden offers a generous yet easily maintained plot, perfectly conceived for both relaxation and play. A lawn is complemented by a terraced dining area, while a bespoke seating zone with fire pit creates an inviting setting for evening gatherings.
An outbuilding adds versatility, while the garage with adjoining workshop provides ample space for storage or hobbies. Balancing village tranquillity with exceptional connectivity, this remarkable home embodies the very best of refined family living – practical, versatile, and effortlessly stylish.
