Overview

Abbotts Hall is a substantial country house believed to date from the early 18th Century with 19th Century additions. The house faces south overlooking its own gardens and grounds and has well-proportioned accommodation with excellent ceiling heights throughout. There are many period features including sashed and shuttered windows, open fireplaces, exposed timbers and cornicing. There is a fine staircase in the reception hall and extensive panelling in the dining room. Later additions include a superb conservatory with panoramic views and access to the attractive gardens and terracing. Adjoining is a high quality indoor heated swimming pool complex. On the first floor is a wonderful principal bedroom with dressing room, both with south facing views, and an en-suite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms that share a Jack & Jill shower room. On the second floor there are three bedrooms all with en-suite shower rooms. The property is Grade II Listed and the accommodation throughout is in excellent order.

To the north of the house is a former Chapel that has been extensively restored. Further to the north west is a charming period former stable block which has been renovated to a high standard providing good sized accommodation. Adjacent to the stables is a general purpose outbuilding which is currently used as a garden machinery store. To the west of the house near the foot of the driveway stands a traditional thatched Norfolk barn which is Grade II Listed. This has full planning permission which is in perpetuity for conversion to a dwelling.

This property has 5.11 acres of land.
