The current owners have thoroughly enjoyed the property's easy access to the town centre with it being only a few minutes from an eclectic offering of pubs, restaurants, cafes and - of course - the town's two theatres. King's Lynn also has a thriving high street with a plethora of shops and amenities.
The accommodation comprises of an open-plan living room/dining room with far reaching views from triple aspect windows, two beautiful double bedrooms - including a principal with en-suite facility. There's also a balcony terrace overlooking the river, suitable for a bistro dining set, ideal for a morning coffee or an evening tipple whilst watching the sunset.
A contemporary fitted kitchen and shower room are practical and well-appointed and a spiral staircase leads up to the 'lookout'. This area features two additional rooms over two floors of versatile living space. The current vendors have used these as a study and library/hobby-room. The 'lookout' itself occupies the top floor and having a ceiling height of approximately 3m, and triple aspect windows, it lends itself wonderfully to being a further impressive bedroom with far enviable views over King's Lynn, West Lynn, The Minster, the town roof line and countryside beyond.
On the ground floor there is access to a private utility room, garage and further off-road parking.
KING'S LYNN Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King's Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.
Originally named Bishop's Lynn, during the reign of Henry VIII the town was surrendered to the crown and took the name King's Lynn. During the 14th century, Lynn was England's most important port, dominated by the Hanseatic League. Although the growth of London later eroded the port's importance, ship-building and fishing became prominent industries, the latter of which is documented at True's Yard Museum.
With more than 400 listed buildings, two warehouses – Hanse House and Marriott's Warehouse – still stand in the centre of the town, along with King's Lynn Minster and Custom House. These have appeared as stars of the screen in numerous period dramas and it's not unusual to spot a camera crew and cast on location.
King Street, which runs from Tuesday Market Place to the Custom House was once known as 'Stockfish Row' for the number of fish merchants that lived there, With a listed building every 26ft, Sir John Betjeman described it as one of the finest walks in England. In 1845, there were at least ten pubs on this street alone, and although these have faded away a relatively new arrival is the WhataHoot distillery with its gin school and handmade spirits.
With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour's drive and a direct rail line into London King's Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King's Lynn continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route. It's easy to see the appeal of this central location with a clutch of high street retailers and independent restaurants in the town's Vancouver Centre. The Majestic Cinema and King's Lynn Alive Corn Exchange are the place to catch a film or show, or check out what's on at St George's Guildhall, the UK's largest surviving medieval guildhall, today a vibrant arts centre.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
