A Grade II listed building, Swannington Hall is located less than 20 miles from the Norfolk coastline. Parts of the property date back over half a millennium, but over the years modern elements have been introduced.
Now up for sale with a guide price of just over £2 million, the charming rural house is constructed from brick-and-flint and red brick, with plain-tile gable roofing. The outside of the home features carefully manicured gardens and grounds on what is considered a medieval moated site of significant importance. While the home has been renovated many times during its existence, its earliest parts include fabric from the late 15th century.
While it has many period features, the home saw substantial improvements between 2000 and 2001, when the current custodians undertook a major renovation project. This included fitting bespoke joinery like library shelving, cabinetry and brand-new windows, but also the installation of an underfloor heating system for the entire ground floor of the home.
Underfloor heating is an ideal solution selected by many who possess period properties but wish to make them energy efficient. Unlike traditional solutions like radiator-based systems, underfloor heating does not require equipment to be on show that does not fit the era that a house dates to. Tucked away beneath floor finishes, underfloor heating never ruins the aesthetics of a home.
