GROUND FLOOR

The welcoming entrance hall is flooded with natural light and offers practical storage for coats and shoes. To the right, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space forms the heart of the home.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with marble worktops and a range of integrated appliances, upgraded by the current owners since their purchase in 2024, including a wine fridge. Further features include twin NEFF ovens, an induction hob, Quooker boiling tap and a bespoke pantry unit. A marble waterfall worktop central island provides additional seating, while Amtico herringbone flooring runs throughout.

The dining area offers a refined entertaining space, with double doors opening onto the patio. A bespoke, backlit wine display adds a striking focal point.

The sitting area is equally impressive, featuring a bespoke media unit with glass shelving, full-height bookcases and a Gazco freestanding gas stove set against a marble backdrop. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden and also double doors onto the West side patio.

A well-appointed utility room, redesigned by the current owners, provides excellent storage, alongside a stylish cloakroom and plant room. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor. Interiors have been thoughtfully curated by Paula Grundy. __________

FIRST FLOOR

An oak and glass balustrade staircase leads to a bright and spacious landing, where a bespoke office area has been created.

The principal bedroom suite offers a luxurious retreat, with fitted cabinetry, a bespoke dressing room complete with illuminated joinery and a dressing table, and a beautifully finished en suite with twin basins and a walk-in shower which has all been renovated by the current owner.

The second bedroom is particularly impressive, with vaulted ceilings, a Juliet balcony and woodland views. Its en suite features a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and marble flooring. Bedroom three also benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite. Radiators on this floor have been upgraded to complement the home’s high-specification finish. __________

SECOND FLOOR

The second floor provides two further bedrooms, one of which has been fitted with bespoke cabinetry to frame a bed, while the other has been designed as a fully fitted dressing room. This level is served by a contemporary shower room. Additional fitted storage has been incorporated into the landing.

Throughout the home, high-quality finishes have been carefully selected, including oak internal doors and an MVHR system, providing filtered air and energy-efficient heat recovery. __________

OUTSIDE

The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of distinct outdoor spaces. A large west-facing patio provides an ideal setting for entertaining, complemented by planted borders and a separate outdoor entertaining area. The south-facing garden has been laid with artificial lawn for ease of maintenance.

A striking oak and glass pergola links the front and rear gardens, incorporating a concealed access door. The integrated garage benefits from electric doors and rear garden access, with a finished floor for a clean, polished appearance. __________

SITUATION Stower House enjoys a secluded setting within approximately ten acres of private woodland, located in the sought-after suburb of Drayton, just six miles north-west of Norwich city centre.

Drayton, along with neighbouring Thorpe Marriott and Taverham, offers a strong range of local amenities including schooling for all ages, a supermarket, independent shops, healthcare facilities and popular public houses, all within a well-established community setting.

Norwich offers an excellent range of shopping, dining and cultural attractions, along with a mainline railway station providing direct services to London Liverpool Street. The North Norfolk coast and the Norfolk Broads are both within easy reach, making this an ideal location combining countryside living with city convenience.
