Property Description
An exceptional and individually designed 4/5 bedroom detached bungalow, offering approximately 2,387 sq ft of beautifully proportioned and highly versatile accommodation. Designed with modern family living in mind, this impressive home combines generous living spaces, quality finishes and excellent flexibility, whilst occupying a private and desirable plot. Upon arrival, the property immediately impresses with a substantial gravel driveway providing off road parking for up to 10 vehicles, complemented by a timber garden shed and a storm porch. A welcoming front door opens into a particularly spacious entrance hall, setting the tone for the generous proportions found throughout the property. At the heart of this wonderful home is the magnificent 36`8" kitchen/breakfast room, which provides an exceptional space for both everyday family life and entertaining. The room incorporates a comfortable sitting area at one end, centred around an impressive Opus wood burner, creating a warm and inviting focal point. Two sets of sliding patio doors flood the room with natural light and provide a seamless connection to the patio and beautifully private rear gardens. The quality fitted kitchen is finished with Corian worktops and features an impressive central island incorporating a breakfast bar. There is space for an American style fridge/ freezer, together with an integrated dishwasher, Neff induction hob with extractor over, two Neff ovens and a built-in 1½-bowl sink and drainer. An excellent range of storage provides practicality without compromising on style, while underfloor heating adds an additional touch of luxury and comfort. A separate utility room provides space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with housing for the oil fired boiler. The superb lounge, measuring approximately 18`7", offers an equally impressive entertaining and relaxation space. A striking media wall with integrated cupboards creates a wonderful focal point, while French doors open directly onto the rear garden, further enhancing the sense of space and connection with the outside. The accommodation continues with four generous double bedrooms, a luxurious family bathroom with four piece suite and a versatile study. The study could readily be utilised as a fifth bedroom if required, providing excellent flexibility for a growing family or those working from home. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive retreat and benefits from its own en-suite facilities, including a shower cubicle, bath, wash basin and low level WC plus a walk in dressing room/ wardrobe. Bedroom two also enjoys the benefit of en-suite facilities, providing additional comfort and privacy for family members or guests. Outside, the rear garden is a particular feature of the property, enjoying a high degree of privacy and providing an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment. A substantial paved patio extends onto a generous area of lawn, while two timber garden sheds provide useful storage. External power points, lighting and a water supply further enhance the practicality of the outside space. The property`s exceptional proportions and flexible layout make it ideally suited to modern family life, particularly for those with a growing family who require generous and adaptable accommodation. There is also significant potential for multi generational living, with the layout lending itself to the creation of a self contained annex, subject to any necessary consents. Further benefits include double glazing and oil fired central heating. A truly impressive and versatile home, offering an outstanding combination of space, quality and flexibility, with excellent potential to adapt to the changing needs of modern family life.

Location
The Vines in Shortthorn Road sits within a small, rural village in the Broadland district of Norfolk, around 8 miles North of Norwich and just off the A140 corridor and is also only around 5 miles from Norwich Airport. The setting is quiet and agricultural, with open fields, pockets of woodland and gently rolling countryside surrounding the village, giving the area a distinctly rural feel. For day to day living, Stratton Strawless offers a village hall and parish church, with nearby Buxton providing a small convenience shop, fish and chip shop and hairdresser for everyday needs. Aylsham acts as the nearest practical hub, located approximately 4 5 miles away, offering independent shops, small supermarkets, cafes, public houses and essential services such as a library and healthcare facilities. Norwich serves as the main centre for larger shopping, employment and leisure, typically reachable within around 20 25 minutes by car depending on traffic. Primary schooling options include Hainford VC Primary School, roughly 1 to 2 miles away, and Hevingham Primary School slightly further afield, both commonly used by local families subject to catchment. Secondary education is generally accessed within the wider Norwich and Broadland areas, with options such as Taverham High School and secondary schools in Norwich within reasonable driving distance, making car travel an important part of daily routines. The A140 provides the main road link connecting Shortthorn Road to Norwich and Aylsham, while bus services operate along the broader Stratton Strawless and Hevingham corridor. Rail connections are available from nearby stations approximately 5 to7 miles away, including Salhouse, Hoveton & Wroxham, and Norwich station to the south, offering wider regional services and direct routes to London.
