In addition to the main accommodation, Highfield boasts two substantial outbuildings – a garden studio, featuring a kitchenette and shower room with a studio space, and a detached annexe to the front, providing yet more studio style accommodation with a kitchen/lounge/bedroom served by an en-suite shower room.
This annexe benefits from separate access and a private garden, making it ideal as a holiday let.
The property’s plot is flanked by private woodland to one side and paths dissecting patches of wildflower meadows to the other.
The centre and majority of the plot is kept to a lawn stretching from the courtyard off the kitchen down to a natural swimming pool towards the rear of the grounds. An art studio is also found hidden toward the rear of the garden.
Highfield is set between the rugged Norfolk Coast and the undulating landscape of the Stiffkey Valley.
Stiffkey is a pretty Norfolk coastal village between Wells-next-the-Sea and Blakeney. The village is famous for its ‘Stewkey Blues’, a local blue cockle.
It has an excellent pub, the Red Lion, with real ale and good food. There’s also a much-loved village store serving coffee, pastries and everyday essentials alongside homeware and gifts.
The village is well placed for exploring the North Norfolk coast and there are some superb coastal walks nearby as well as excellent sailing.
