Summary - THE OLD CARPENTERS BANHAM ROAD QUIDENHAM NORWICH NR16 2PQ
6 bed 5 bath Detached
Secluded estate setting with log-cabin annexe and extensive grounds.
Gated rural setting on around 1.5 acres (stms)
Set within the historic Old Quidenham estate, this converted carpenters' workshop sits in a gated, rural position with about 1.5 acres of private grounds. The main house provides five bedrooms, a sitting room, study, spacious kitchen/dining room, utility and multiple bathrooms, while a well-appointed log-cabin annexe offers a sixth bedroom and independent living space — ideal for guests or a home office.
The property’s granite walls, steep pitched roofs and skylights give character and excellent natural light, and the large, landscaped garden with mature trees delivers privacy and outdoor living opportunities. There is ample parking on the gravel driveway and secure gated access off Banham Road. Local schools rated Good–Outstanding are within reasonable reach, while the wider area suits those seeking a quiet, rural lifestyle.
Practical considerations: the house is oil-heated via a boiler and radiators and appears to be of traditional, uninsulated solid-wall construction, which will affect running costs and may require insulation or energy upgrades. Broadband and mobile signals are average for the area. Council tax is noted as quite expensive. Buyers should factor in potential improvement works to bring energy performance and long-term running costs in line with modern expectations.
For families or buyers seeking country character with separate annexe accommodation and substantial grounds, this property presents genuine scope and privacy. A viewing is recommended to appreciate the setting, internal space and the opportunity to tailor energy and comfort improvements to your needs.
