The Old School Room, located in Wrentham, Norfolk, is a stunning, modern, single-level home designed with a Scandinavian aesthetic. This unique property, which can accommodate up to four guests, features two bedrooms and is ideally situated near the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The home's spacious and bright interior is highlighted by high vaulted ceilings and a large arched window that enhances the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, making it a perfect retreat for couples, friends, and small families seeking a coastal getaway.
Originally a school assembly room, The Old School Room has been thoughtfully extended by its architect and designer owners. The entrance hallway provides ample storage space and features a cloakroom adorned with 1960s Vogue covers, setting a creative tone throughout the home. The living area is designed for comfort, with a large corner sofa, wood-burning stove, and an abundance of natural light streaming in through the open window. The fully equipped kitchen includes a breakfast bar and an additional dining area that seats six, while the absence of a television encourages guests to enjoy board games and books instead, fostering a more engaging and interactive environment.
The accommodation comprises a family bathroom with both a bath and a separate waterfall shower, as well as a king-sized master bedroom and a twin bedroom, each equipped with wardrobes and bedside tables. Notably, both bedrooms have French doors that lead directly into the garden, enhancing the connection to the outdoor space. The property also boasts a fully enclosed rear lawned garden with a decked area, perfect for relaxation and outdoor dining, accommodating up to eight guests with its seating arrangements.
Conveniently located within walking distance of Covehithe's sandy beach, The Old School Room is also just a short drive from the charming towns of Southwold and Walberswick. Nearby amenities include the Five Bells and Horse and Groom pubs, as well as the Black Dog Deli, known for its excellent coffee and locally sourced treats.
