This architect-designed detached home in Poringland combines striking contemporary character with practical family living. Built in 2022, the property offers generous, light-filled accommodation arranged over two storeys, centred on a dramatic glazed entrance and an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining area ideal for everyday family life and entertaining.
Specification is high: underfloor heating to the ground floor, double glazing, waste water heat recovery, smart meters and Cat5 wiring with full fibre broadband to the door. Four generous double bedrooms—all with built-in wardrobes—and two en-suites provide flexibility for family, guests or home working. The ground-floor study and separate utility room increase adaptability for modern needs.
Outside, a professionally landscaped east-facing garden with sandstone and marble-effect patios, pergola and water feature creates a private outdoor living space. A brick-weave driveway for several vehicles and a high-quality double garage deliver secure parking and storage. The village location is about 5 miles south of Norwich, with good schools, local shops and transport links for commuters.
Notable considerations: the property sits in a higher council tax band (above average), and although specification and finishes are premium, buyers should verify running costs and any warranty details. Overall this is a high-spec family home that balances bold design with efficient, well-thought-through systems.
