Modern home on Broads in Hoveton for sale at £850,000

Oakfield has been significantly improved in recent years and is a spacious and attractive property. The home provides ample room for family as well as entertaining both inside and out.

During the owners’ time in the home, they have made improvements and redecorated the whole property, with walls finished in Farrow & Ball paints, new carpets and Karndean flooring throughout.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a sitting room, dining room and family room, as well as a kitchen/breakfast room, study, conservatory and utility.

The focal point of the sitting room is the brick and oak fireplace with inset log burner (Image: Matthew Usher Photography) There are hand painted units and plenty of space in the kitchen (Image: Matthew Usher Photography) The sitting room has a cosy feel, yet is large enough to accommodate several people, with a brick and oak fireplace with inset log burner at the centre. The current owners also added a solid mahogany genuine gothic choir facia on one wall.

There are double doors through to the conservatory, which has views of the garden, fishpond and fields beyond. The owners installed floor-to-ceiling picture windows and a glass roof here to really let the outside in.

The conservatory has views of the garden, pond and fields beyond (Image: Matthew Usher Photography) The formal dining room also has views out to the garden (Image: Matthew Usher Photography) In the kitchen there is a range of hand painted units, built-in appliances and a central oak island. The utility room and WC are conveniently located off the kitchen.

The dining room is a large space, with double doors out to the garden and another set through to the living room.

A family room to the front of the house is a versatile space and could be used for a number of purposes.
