Moncks Hall is a superb and spacious country residence that offers more than 4,000 sq. ft of comfortable, flexible living space arranged over two floors with a variety of period features including the front entrance portico, Tudor style chimney stacks, sash windows, internal exposed beams, original flooring and fireplaces.

The ground floor has four well-proportioned reception rooms including the 21ft sitting room with its woodburning stove and large bay window with original working shutters overlooking the front tiered gardens, one of which holds dimensions that accurately fit a Victorian croquet lawn. There is also a useful office and a family room with sliding glass doors opening onto the garden, while the formal dining room has brick flooring, timber beams overhead, a grand open fireplace and an original cast-iron bread oven. The kitchen and breakfast room has terracotta pamment tiles, wooden storage units, integrated appliances and space for a breakfast table, while the adjoining utility and boot rooms (former dairy) offer further space for appliances and home storage.

There are six well-presented double bedrooms on the first floor, including the principal bedroom and the second bedroom, which share a dressing room and lend themselves to being reconfigured to a substantial principal suite. The first floor also provides two large family bathrooms.

Coop Cottage is a superb one bedroom self-contained property which has been improved and extended by the existing owners during their tenure to incorporate open plan living with views over the rear gardens. Coop Cottage offers extra ancillary accommodation to Moncks Hall and also offers possible income potential through holiday or short term letting. The property has access from the kitchen into a private walled garden with two store rooms and access out from the living room to a secluded courtyard garden which has views and access out onto the gardens of Moncks Hall.

This property has 8.43 acres of land.

Outside

The property is accessed via a private tree lined drive and offers plenty of off street parking. The property is set in extensive gardens and grounds and includes several outbuildings, such as the 78ft workshop/boat room and the old stables, which also has workshop space. The gardens have far-reaching lawns and meadows, colourful flowerbeds, pond and a wealth of mature trees, including Giant Victorian Redwoonds and Wellingtonias. There is a woodland trail designed by the existing owners which opens up to useful extra entertaining space, and could offer glamping or camping opportunities. The annexe also has its own courtyard garden which adjoins the private walled garden including outdoor seating area and fruit and vegetable garden.

Situation

The property lies in a rural position on the edge of the small Norfolk village of Brandon Parva.
