Yarmouth Road, Ellingham, Bungay, Norfolk, NR35 2PN

Set back from the road in a truly exceptional non-estate location, this beautifully remodelled and hugely extended detached family home enjoys a prime position in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Ellingham, nestled within the unspoilt Waveney Valley countryside.

Originally a more modest home, the property has been thoughtfully extended and reimagined over the years, with the most significant addition completed in 2000.

The result is a surprisingly spacious and flexible home that offers charm, practicality, and a connection to its idyllic surroundings.

Inside, the accommodation flows beautifully and suits both family life and entertaining.

A formal, double-aspect dining room offers a light-filled space for hosting, while the opposite side of the hallway reveals a classic shaker-style kitchen, finished with solid granite worktops, an immaculate stainless steel range cooker, and a built-in wine rack that adds both character and functionality.

These well-appointed rooms complement the heart of the home, an inviting main lounge where a cast iron woodburning stove provides a warm, focal point throughout the cooler months.

Beyond the lounge, a snug offers direct views stretching down the length of the rear garden, with natural light pouring in and mature trees framing the view beautifully.

A bespoke home office is also located on the ground floor, designed for comfortable, quiet working-from-home days and seamlessly integrated into the layout of the home.

Upstairs, the standout feature is undoubtedly the cathedral-style principal bedroom, which boasts high vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, creating an impressive sense of space and architectural interest.

A large dressing room, complete with extensive built-in wardrobes, leads into a smartly presented en-suite bathroom.

Three further bedrooms, all well-proportioned, and a family bathroom complete the upper level, offering ample accommodation for a growing family or frequent visitors.

The real treasure of this property lies in its exceptional outdoor space. The rear garden stretches approximately 130 feet in length and enjoys a perfect south-facing orientation.

Wonderfully private and fully enclosed, the garden is flanked by mature trees and well-stocked shrub borders, providing colour and interest throughout the year.

A striking silver birch tree, believed to have been transported from nearby Ellingham Hall, takes pride of place and adds to the storybook quality of the garden.

Red robin trees, climbing passion flowers add texture and vibrancy to the planting, while a series of well-planned seating areas, including timber decking and a paved patio, make this an ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing in the sun.

The garden offers more than just beauty, it also presents a wonderful opportunity for those looking to grow their own produce, keep chickens, or live more sustainably, with abundant space for raised beds, composting, or even a greenhouse.

To the side of the property, a gated driveway provides secure off-road parking and leads to a large garage/workshop with a wide open frontage, offering enough space for multiple vehicles, hobby use, or storage.

A dedicated wood store sits discreetly to one side of the house, and the layout ensures easy access between front and rear gardens.

The setting is peaceful yet connected, offering a quiet lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of the market towns of Beccles and Bungay, as well as the wider Broads National Park.

With a strong local community and countryside walks on the doorstep, Ellingham remains one of the most desirable villages in the region.

In summary, this is a rare chance to acquire a highly individual, significantly extended, and beautifully presented family home in one of South Norfolk’s most charming locations.

With a truly remarkable garden, generous living space, and a timeless village setting, this property offers a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find.

Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the scale and setting of this exceptional home.
