Framingham Earl

Sowerbys are delighted to present Framingham House, a truly remarkable Victorian residence which has been thoughtfully remodelled to offer over 4,200 sq. ft. of luxurious living space, set across three elegant floors. This exceptional home combines the charm of its Victorian heritage with high-end, modern-day living – all situated along one of South Norfolk’s most desirable roads, ideal for commuting into Norwich and beyond.

Framingham House is approached via private electronic gates, opening onto a large gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles and access to a double garage with twin electric roller doors. Set within grounds of approximately 0.69 acres, the front garden enjoys a high degree of privacy thanks to mature tree borders, whilst the expansive rear garden, laid mostly to lawn, is the perfect backdrop for family life. A generous patio terrace creates an idyllic setting for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Upon entering, prospective tenants are welcomed into a bright and spacious hallway which flows effortlessly through to the heart of the home - a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family area. Designed around modern living and entertaining, this space features a striking media wall with inset electric fireplace and a bespoke Kestrel kitchen complete with high-specification cabinetry and premium Siemens appliances including twin ovens, an induction hob, fridge freezer and wine fridge. A central island unit completes this sociable space, perfect for informal dining and family gatherings.

In addition to the main family space, the ground floor offers a triple aspect sitting room with a gas fireplace, a dedicated study ideally positioned for home working, a separate utility room and a downstairs cloakroom - all beautifully finished to an impeccable standard.

The first floor hosts four generous bedrooms including the stylish principal suite, complete with a spacious en-suite bathroom and fitted storage. A guest bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining two bedrooms are served by a contemporary four-piece family bathroom.

Occupying the second floor are two further well-proportioned rooms along with an additional shower room. These versatile top-floor spaces could be used as further bedrooms or adapted for alternative uses such as a cinema room, home gym or teenage retreat – ideal for those seeking privacy and independence within a family setting.

Available to let on an initial 12-month fixed term tenancy, either furnished or unfurnished. Viewings strictly by appointment only.

FRAMINGHAM EARL
Framingham Earl is a small village just south of Norwich. Its name means “village of Fram’s people,” with the “Earl” suffix reflecting its historic ownership by the Earl of Norfolk.

The village has two churches: the Methodist Church and St Andrew’s, a distinctive round-tower church - one of over 100 in Norfolk - where renowned German writer W. G. Sebald is buried.

Framingham Earl High School shares a site with a modern sports centre opened in 2016. The village also offers several local businesses, a shop, and an East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice charity shop.

Just over four miles away, Norwich has long been home to writers, radicals, and creatives. Its well-preserved medieval streets host small businesses, a vibrant food scene, and a strong arts culture. The city also serves as a gateway to Norfolk’s unspoilt landscapes, open spaces and big skies.

Named one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich sits at the confluence of the Rivers Yare and Wensum. Once the second-largest city in England, it remains the UK’s most complete medieval city. A stroll down Elm Hill reveals Tudor buildings, merchants’ houses, thatched roofs, independent shops and cosy cafés, all leading to the 1,000-year-old cathedral.

Trains to London Liverpool Street take just 90 minutes, and Norwich Airport offers UK flights and direct services to Amsterdam.
