Situation Whitlingham Hall is situated about 3 miles from the centre of the city of Norwich. The Hall has easy access to the A47 Norwich Southern Bypass and this provides access to the A11 and M11 and to London, Cambridge or Stansted. The village of Trowse offers several amenities including a bakery, post office, newsagent, primary school, public house, restaurant and dry ski slope as well as the new Whitlingham Broad and Country Park. The cathedral city of Norwich offers excellent shopping, leisure and cul tural facilities and a range of both private and public sector schooling.

Historical Note Whitlingham Hall was built in 1865 to the design of H E Coe in the Elizabethan style for the Norwich banker Sir Robert Harvey. It then passed in to the hands of the Colman family, the mustard manufacturers. It was extended in 1882 and remained the family home until the 1950’s. In 2003, the PJ Livesey Group, converted Whitlingham Hall into several apartments and houses. The Grade II listed Hall stands in landscaped gardens and grounds of about 7 acres.

Description 5 Whitlingham Hall is arguably the most sought after apartment in the main hall due to its unique position, outdoor space, large living areas and south facing views over the rear gardens and beyond. The residents have access to the gardens and can enjoy the lake and fountain and can also use the large Victorian orangery. The Main Hall is entered through the front door on the ground floor to the spacious communal Entrance Hall with its wonderful panelling and period features. An Inner Hall gives access to the lift and stairs which service the first and second floors. 5 Whitlingham Hall has the benefit of access to the communal landing on both floors and thus access to the lift on both floors.

Accommodation Offering approximately 20 00sq ft of living accommodation, 5 Whitlingham Hall is a stunning 2 bedroom first floor apartment which has been refurbished by the current owners to an exacting standard. Many original features have been retained throughout the building and with the excep tional ceiling heights create a grand yet modern living experience.

The main reception room is accessed off the inner hall and along with a newly installed working gas fire place with surround, benefits from direct access through 2 floor to ceiling Frenc h doors out on to the private south facing balcony offering far reaching views over the landscaped communal gardens and beyond. The dining area and study are located off the sitting room. The kitchen/breakfast room also has direct access to the balcony thr ough another pair of French doors and like the sitting room, enjoys the same stunning views. The large master bedroom (over 23’ x 21’) is dominated by a fantastic south facing bay window once again offering direct views over the garden. Built in wardrobes offer plentiful storage and a hidden en suite shower room is accessed through a secret wardrobe door. The second bedroom, again south facing has built in wardrobes. A family bathroom accessed off the inner hall completes the accommodation.

Due to its gra nd proportions and high ceilings, the apartment would be ideally suited to someone looking to downsize from a larger property, whilst equally suited to a professional couple or someone looking to use the apartment as a pied a t erre or a lock up and leave as a secondary residence.

Outside There is one reserved parking space to the front of the property in the car park and a second space is reserved in the secure underground garage. Visitor parking spaces are also available.
