<p><strong>LANGLEY HOUSE</strong></p><p>Langley House is the final available home from the respected Norfolk developer, FW Properties, tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac where life feels calm and unhurried. One of the largest homes built by FW, it enjoys a wonderful sense of space inside and out, with a south-facing wrap-around garden that catches the sun throughout the day.</p><p>Inside, the layout is made for modern family living, with three reception rooms offering flexibility for relaxed evenings, home working or entertaining friends. The dual-aspect sitting room centres around a traditional brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove, while the remaining rooms adapt easily as a playroom, study or media space. A separate utility room keeps everyday practicalities neatly out of sight.</p><p>Upstairs, five bedrooms provide space for family and guests alike. The principal suite feels like a retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite, while a second bedroom also enjoys its own en-suite. A fifth bedroom offers a quiet option for a home office if needed. Outside, the double garage, private driveway and sun-filled garden wrap around the house, creating a sense of privacy and ease.</p><p>Set within the catchment for Hobart High School and close to the market towns of Loddon, Beccles and Bungay, Langley House is well placed for everyday life. Norwich lies around 11 miles away, while the coast and sandy beaches are within easy reach.</p><p>A beautifully balanced home offering space, light and a peaceful setting, ready to be enjoyed from day one.</p><p><br/><strong>VILLAGE LIFE IN RURAL NORFOLK</strong></p><p>Hales is a tranquil village nestled amidst the picturesque Norfolk countryside, surrounded by lush green fields, ancient oak trees and an array of wildlife.</p><p>The area is well known for the stunning Raveningham Estate where gardens open to the public from as early as February, and include amongst many others the 'Time Garden' designed around essays based on the passage of time written by Sir Francis Bacon.</p><p>A visit to St. Margaret's Church, which sits in an isolated countryside setting, will find you falling in to a 12th century Norman world, with beautiful stained-glass windows and medieval carved entrance door. Life in Hales moves at a gentle pace, providing ample opportunities for leisurely walks and immersing yourself in the peace of rural living.</p><p>Just over a mile from Hales and lying on the River Chet, Loddon is a small market town with so much on its doorstep. There are an assortment of local shops, eateries and pubs - along with local walks. There are numerous schools nearby covering all ages, including the renowned Langley School – an independent school offering day, weekly, flexi and full boarding. Hales falls within the catchment area for Hobart High School. Loddon is within the bounds of The Broads National Park, which is the largest protected wetland in Britain.</p><p>Travel south east from Hales for just six miles and you arrive at the beautiful bustling market town of Beccles where you will find amenities and attractions in abundance. An array of independent shops to explore, restaurants and pubs, public swimming pool, museums and the bell tower to name a few. For those seeking a thrill or two there's even the Beccles Drop Zone for parachuting and Ellough Park Race Circuit for the petrolheads.</p><p>Hales is well situated to reach areas in both Norfolk and Suffolk, and the ancient city of Norwich is only a 30 minute drive away.</p><p><br/><strong>A LEVEL OF QUALITY WHICH SPEAKS FOR ITSELF</strong></p><p>KITCHEN</p><ul><li><p>Classic shaker style kitchen with timber doors and soft close mechanisms</p></li><li><p>Large format floor tiles</p></li><li><p>Integrated dishwasher</p></li><li><p>Stainless steel sockets at worktop level</p></li><li><p>Recessed downlighters to ceiling</p></li><li><p>Siemens built-in oven in tower unit</p></li><li><p>Siemens built-in combination microwave oven/grill in tower unit</p></li><li><p>Siemens 5 zone induction hob</p></li><li><p>Siemens built-in dishwasher</p></li><li><p>Siemens brushed steel extract hood</p></li><li><p>Quartz worktops including upstands with 1.5 bowl undermount sink and slim lever swan neck tap</p></li></ul><p>UTILITY ROOM</p><ul><li><p>Built-in cupboards to match the kitchen</p></li><li><p>Square edge laminate worktop and upstand</p></li><li><p>Stainless steel sink and swan neck tap</p></li><li><p>Large format floor tiles</p></li><li><p>Recessed downlighters to ceiling</p></li><li><p>Spaces for washing machine and tumble dryer</p></li></ul><p>BATHROOMS, EN-SUITE SHOWER ROOMS & CLOAKROOMS</p><ul><li><p>Contemporary white sanitary ware and chrome fittings from SANEUX</p></li><li><p>Vanity Unit in principal en-suite</p></li><li><p>Wall and floor tiling from Porcelanosa</p></li><li><p>Thermostatically controlled shower</p></li><li><p>Rainfall shower to principal en-suite</p></li><li><p>Downlighters to ceiling</p></li><li><p>Chrome towel rails</p></li></ul><p>FINISHING TOUCHES</p><ul><li><p>White satin painted stairs, oak balustrade and newel cap</p></li><li><p>Cupboards to bedrooms where shown</p></li><li><p>Oak veneered Dordogne style internal doors</p></li><li><p>Polished chrome door furniture</p></li><li><p>Walls painted white</p></li><li><p>Ceilings – smooth finish painted white</p></li><li><p>White satin skirting and architraves</p></li></ul><p>GENERAL</p><ul><li><p>uPVC double glazed windows with grey external finish</p></li><li><p>TV points located in living room and all bedrooms</p></li><li><p>Double sockets throughout</p></li><li><p>USB sockets in each property</p></li><li><p>External tap</p></li><li><p>External lighting on PIR sensors</p></li><li><p>Landscaped gardens with turfed front and seeded rear lawns</p></li><li><p>Double garage with lighting, power and pedestrian door</p></li><li><p>External parking</p></li><li><p>South-facing patio</p></li><li><p>Smoke detectors installed in the hall and landing</p></li><li><p>Fibre cable to the premises providing Broadband capable of speeds up to 1Gbps</p></li></ul><p>ENVIRONMENTAL</p><ul><li><p>Heating and hot water supplied via an air source heat pump</p></li><li><p>Underfloor heating to ground floor of all plots</p></li><li><p>Parkray contemporary style wood burning stove</p></li></ul><p>WARRANTY</p><ul><li><p>10 year Build-Zone new build warranty</p></li></ul><p><br/><strong>FLOOR PLAN MEASUREMENTS</strong></p><p>GROUND FLOOR<br/>Living Room 19’1” x 14’3” (5.82m x 4.34m)<br/>Dining Room 12’9” x 11’11” (3.89m x 3.63m)<br/>Kitchen 27’4” x 14’8” (8.33m x 4.47m)<br/>Family Room 16’11” x 10’9” (5.16m x 3.28m)</p><p>FIRST FLOOR<br/>Bedroom 1 17’0” x 14’0” (5.18m x 4.27m)<br/>Bedroom 2 12’0” x 11’11” (3.66m x 3.63m)<br/>Bedroom 3 15’0” x 10’9” (4.57m x 3.28m)<br/>Bedroom 4 12’0” x 9’10” (3.66m x 3.00m)<br/>Bedroom 5 10’10” x 8’1” (3.30m x 2.46m)</p><p><strong>Total Approximate Floor Area 2,403 Sq.
