2 bedroom cottage for sale

It comes as no surprise that this property has been welcoming people inside over the course of its history.

It is a pretty example of a Grade Two listed, period cottage, retaining much of its original character, alongside its modernisation and refurbishment.

In addition to our vendors, holiday makers have enjoyed this cosy brick and flint cottage, where you are transported to a bygone era in the reception rooms, with boarded floors, exposed red brick chimney breasts and the warming wood-burning stove.

The kitchen provides a contemporary feel, with its fitted units, and the theme follows through to the utility room. The ground floor shower room allows for those times when humans and dogs venture home after a day at the beach, to a warming shower and a cosy snuggle up by the fireside.

The cottage is perfect for a small family or couples, with generous two double bedrooms upstairs. And when the sun shines you can take to the outdoors in the rear garden and enjoy outside entertaining.

Magpies provides sanctuary, away from the hustle and bustle, but close enough to all that this wonderful location provides. Whether it's walking on the marshes, having a pint at the local pub, or a coffee at the village shop, there is much to enjoy for the next custodian of 'Magpies'. 

STIFFKEY Stiffkey, located between Wells and Blakeney, is one of the most picturesque villages on the north Norfolk coast. The river Stiffkey flowing west to east has carved a valley creating properties with stunning views and a short walk to the tidal marshes. The village is famous for its 'Stewkey Blues', a local blue cockle. It has a good pub, the Red Lion, with real ale and good food. There's also a general store and newsagents. The village is very well placed for the North Norfolk Coast. There is excellent sailing nearby, and superb coastal walks.

Just 4 miles away is the popular seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, which is set behind a small harbour on the beautiful North Norfolk Coast - its beach was voted The Best British Beach of the Year 2016 by The Times. The town has a maze of narrow streets, old alleys and yards, filled with shops, pubs and cafes and there are many listed and impressive Georgian and Victorian buildings. The town has a doctors' surgery, library, community hall and primary and secondary schools, and, for those that enjoy the water a public house on a boat.

Wells-next-the-Sea is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the heart of the Heritage Coast between Hunstanton and Weybourne. The beautiful sandy beach, with its pine trees, sand dunes and colourful beach huts, can be reached by a pleasant walk, car or alternatively you could just enjoy the Quay with its active fishing fleet and sailing club. Both Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham Woods are designated Nature Reserves, and walkers and birdwatchers enjoy the North Norfolk Coastal Path, creeks and marshes.
