The Location
Wacton is a charming rural village that captures much of what people love about the Norfolk countryside. Set within the gently undulating landscape of South Norfolk, it enjoys wide open skies, quiet country lanes, and a patchwork of fields that change beautifully with the seasons — from bright rapeseed yellow in spring to golden harvest tones in late summer.
Although small in size, Wacton has a long-established presence in the area, typical of many Norfolk villages that grew around agriculture and parish life. At its heart is the parish church, a peaceful and characterful building that reflects the area’s historic roots. The surrounding lanes and footpaths offer pleasant walking opportunities, with views across open farmland.
One of Wacton’s real strengths is its balance between rural calm and practical connectivity. The nearby village of Long Stratton provides everyday amenities including shops, schooling and services, while the market towns of Diss and Attleborough offer a wider range of facilities. Wymondham, known for its historic abbey and independent shops, is also within easy reach. The city of Norwich, with its cathedral, cultural venues, shopping, and rail connections, is roughly 12 miles to the north, making commuting or day trips straightforward.
Access to the A11 enhances Wacton’s appeal for those who travel for work, connecting to Norwich in one direction and Cambridge and London (via rail links from nearby stations) in the other. Despite this accessibility, the village itself remains peaceful and lightly trafficked.
Property in Wacton typically consists of a mix of period cottages, farmhouses and individual homes set on generous plots, often with far-reaching countryside views. The overall atmosphere is friendly and unhurried, the sort of place where neighbours know one another and the pace of life feels refreshingly calm.
For anyone seeking a quiet Norfolk lifestyle, surrounded by nature, yet within easy reach of essential amenities and larger centres, Wacton offers a genuinely attractive setting without losing the authentic character that makes rural South Norfolk so appealing.
Church Road, Wacton
Set within the heart of Wacton, in a desirable non-estate position along Church Road, “Pond View” is an individual and beautifully extended three-bedroom detached residence that perfectly blends rural tranquillity with contemporary open-plan living. Surrounded by open countryside yet within easy reach of nearby amenities, this is a home designed for those seeking both peace and practicality.
At the centre of the property lies an exceptional open-plan living space that immediately impresses. The principal lounge spans approximately 27ft and is wonderfully light-filled, enhanced by a bay window to the front and a striking fully glazed apex gable to the rear.
The vaulted ceiling and additional roof windows draw in natural light throughout the day, while carefully considered dimmer lighting allows the ambience to shift effortlessly from bright and airy to warm and intimate. A built-in wood-burning stove provides a cosy focal point, making this an inviting space in every season. The rear section of this magnificent room offers a garden-room feel, with elevated ceilings and uninterrupted views across the landscaped grounds.
Flowing seamlessly from the living area is the stylish open-plan kitchen and breakfast space. Thoughtfully appointed with Corian worktops, a moulded sink and a central island unit, the kitchen combines clean contemporary lines with everyday functionality. Integrated appliances are neatly incorporated, and underfloor heating adds comfort underfoot. The adjoining dining area creates a natural space for entertaining, complete with its own wood-burning stove and the same welcoming sense of light and openness that defines the home.
A separate utility room provides additional storage and workspace, helping to keep the main living areas uncluttered while maintaining the home’s refined finish.
Upstairs, a galleried landing leads to three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is an impressive and peaceful retreat, enjoying the benefit of its own en-suite shower room for added privacy and convenience. The remaining bedrooms are equally well-proportioned, making the layout ideal for families, guests or flexible working from home.
The family bathroom is beautifully appointed with a four-piece suite, including a roll-top double-ended bath, separate walk-in shower, wash basin and WC. Complementary tiling, recessed ceiling lighting and underfloor heating create a luxurious, spa-like atmosphere.
Outside, the property truly excels. The fully landscaped rear garden has been carefully designed to offer both visual impact and usable space. A stunning natural pond forms the centrepiece, enhanced by subtle floodlighting and a tranquil water feature that adds movement and sound to the setting.
A paved patio and decked seating terrace provide superb areas for outdoor dining or evening relaxation, complete with external lighting to extend enjoyment long after sunset. The result is a private and enchanting outdoor space that feels both established and thoughtfully curated.
With double glazing and oil-fired central heating, the home combines comfort and efficiency with distinctive architectural character. Offering three double bedrooms, open-plan vaulted living spaces, an en-suite to the principal bedroom and a beautifully landscaped garden with feature pond, this is a truly special village home, elegant, welcoming and perfectly suited to modern country living.
