Fairholme Road, Newton St. Faith

Approached via a generous gravel driveway, Loke House immediately makes a refined architectural statement. This bespoke, architecturally designed home sits comfortably within its rural setting, where mature planting softens the approach.

The exterior design is distinctly modern, combining light render with cedar‐effect composite cladding and a striking dark slate roof, creating a home that feels both contemporary and timeless within its Norfolk surroundings.

A notable addition to the property is the detached double garage, above which sits a superb first‐floor studio complete with an en‐suite shower room. This versatile space lends itself perfectly to guest accommodation, brief stays, or as a peaceful study or creative workspace, offering a degree of independence from the main house while remaining close at hand.

Stepping inside the main residence, you are welcomed by an impressive entrance hall, where a bespoke sculptural architectural feature staircase rises elegantly and a wide opening offers an enticing glimpse into the heart of the home beyond.

Before reaching the main living areas, the ground floor introduces itself with a series of thoughtfully designed initial rooms. The first is a stylish sitting/cinema room, designed for relaxation and entertainment, complete with a fully integrated sound system. Finished in a rich green colour‐drenched palette, the space feels immersive and inviting, while double front‐facing windows ensure it remains light and airy throughout the day.

Also on the ground floor is a beautifully appointed bathroom, featuring a freestanding bath and high‐quality fixtures, continuing the sense of considered design and comfort that runs throughout the home.

The true centrepiece of Loke House reveals itself as you move into the main living space, where scale, light and functionality come together effortlessly. Immediately striking is the extensive glazing that spans most of the room, flooding the interior with natural light and drawing the countryside views inside.

Despite its generous proportions, the space is cleverly defined into purposeful zones. The sitting area within this space enjoys sliding doors to the outside and is anchored by a log burner, providing both a visual focal point and a cosy retreat during cooler months.

Flowing naturally from here is the dining area, enhanced by further glazed doors and positioned to create a more social connection with the kitchen. The kitchen itself has a strong, almost industrial fitted aesthetic, finished with Dekton worktops and a range of Siemens appliances.

A wine cooler and other integrated features underline its suitability for both everyday living and entertaining. Complementing the kitchen is a large matching utility room, offering excellent practicality without compromising on style. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, and the home is eco‐conscious, benefiting from an air‐source heat pump and an enviable energy rating of B.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with five bedrooms, all well‐proportioned and filled with natural light thanks to a thoughtful mix of standard and Velux windows. The principal bedroom is truly a “master of all masters”, featuring sliding doors that open onto a breathtaking Juliet balcony, where uninterrupted field views stretch as far as the eye can see.

This serene retreat is further enhanced by its own en‐suite bathroom and dressing room. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish shared shower room, ensuring comfort and convenience for family and guests alike.

Outside, the gardens mirror the home’s entertaining credentials. A paved patio and wooden pergola create inviting areas for outdoor dining and relaxation, complemented by a dedicated hot tub area and an outside heated shower, perfect for enjoying the space during warmer months or after a countryside walk.

A charming swinging seat hangs from a tree, perfectly positioned to soak in the surrounding field views. Whether hosting gatherings or enjoying peaceful moments in nature, the outdoor space serves the property beautifully, offering a seamless extension of the lifestyle within.

Loke House is a thoughtfully designed, contemporary home that balances architectural impact with warmth, practicality and a strong connection to its rural setting, ideal for modern family living in Newton St Faith.
