A substantial Grade II Listed house enjoying a prominent setting near the church in the heart of the village.
Understood to date back to at least the 16th century and built of timber frame construction, with rendered elevations beneath a stunning thatched roof (re-ridged 2023), Evergreen Hall is a striking home providing a substantial level of well-proportioned accommodation complemented by private part-walled grounds enjoying church views in the centre of the pretty village of Barningham.
The house has been restored and lovingly maintained by the current owners for over 45 years and thankfully displays a wealth of original features including a wonderful heavy timber frame (including mullion windows), huge Inglenook and Tudor fireplaces and fine oak ledge and brace internal doors and of particular note (as referred to on the Grade II listing), 'An ingenious use of a curved timber split' to make two matching tie-beams provides adequate upper headroom.
Benefitting from oil fired radiator central heating, the accommodation which extends to almost 3000 sqft currently in brief comprises of an entrance porch with original oak plank door leading to the sitting room, creating a wonderful area of great first impression displaying the exposed timber frame, huge Inglenook fireplace and re-laid brick floor. This stunning dual aspect reception has a door to the staircase off to first floor and a pair of bespoke oak French doors open to the large conservatory/garden room. The dining room is an ideal room for entertaining leading through to the kitchen fitted with a range of hand-built units with polished oak worktops and door to rear. To the north side of the house is the delightful snug, again another beautiful timbered room with fine red brick fireplace and door leading to the separate utility, shower room and garaging.
On the first floor is the particularly spacious landing with the unique curved beams, large window to front and stairs off to the attic bedrooms (including under eaves storage). The dual aspect principal bedroom has a fine Tudor fireplace and 'Ovalo' mullion window and the two remaining bedrooms are served (like the main bedroom) by the family bathroom.
Outside
The house is approached along a shingle driveway providing plenty of vehicle parking, turning space and access to the adjoining double garaging with internal staircase to a useful attic space above. The gardens are a particular feature being stocked with an abundance of flowering plants, shrubs and mature trees. To the front are lawned gardens with herb and vegetable beds and to the rear, the part-walled and fully enclosed gardens, provide the occupants with a good degree of privacy, particularly during the summer months. A timber shed and wood store provide useful storage and a large paved terrace, creates an ideal area for outdoor entertaining and al-fresco dining. The gardens in all extend to approximately .29 of an acre (s.t.s).
