Avocet Cottage is a perfectly balanced three bedroom property with the added benefit of private parking, an essential in this village.

Although there is a front door to the cottage, it is naturally approached, and entered, through the back door - from the car park.

On the ground floor the living space is divided between the L-shaped kitchen/dining room and the cosy living room.

The kitchen has a perfect blend of contemporary style and period charm, with the sleek and practical kitchen units at one end balancing with the exposed brickwork of the chimney and small Victorian oven at the other.

The living room has a functioning log burner giving this room a really cosy feel.

Upstairs there are two good double bedrooms with the bedroom at the front also retaining its original fireplace, as well as enjoying a glimpse of the coast. The third bedroom is a bunk room and there is also an upstairs WC whilst the family bathroom is on the ground floor.

Outside, the garden faces due south and the current owners have installed a glass canopy giving the cottage a perfect al-fresco space which the British summer cannot spoil. They have loved this sheltered outdoor area as it is a complete sun trap all year round. The rest of the garden is paved and gravelled and very easy to maintain.

Avocet Cottage has been a much-loved holiday home, not just for the owners, but also for their family and friends. It is easy walking distance to both village pubs, the Staithe, and the surrounding countryside, which together has made this their idyllic holiday getaway for almost a decade, but alas, it is now time for another family to enjoy it… 

BRANCASTER STAITHE A small coastal village, centred around the harbour, with its thriving fishing community and ideal for the sailing enthusiast. Brancaster Staithe is located approximately halfway between Hunstanton and Wells-next-the-Sea on the north Norfolk Coast. Connected to Burnham Deepdale, between the two villages they have a variety of shops including a supermarket/petrol station, cafe, fresh fish shop, sailing school, tourist information centre and two pubs, The Jolly Sailors, and The White Horse with its superb coastal views. Brancaster is justly famous for its mussels.

Scolt Head Island is a Nature Conservation Area, set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and being only a boat trip away, depending on the tide. The island has a large breeding colony of Sandwich Terns and in winter there can be 50,000 pink-footed geese roosting on the island.

Brancaster Staithe is one of the best bird watching areas in the UK, the coastal path between Brancaster and Burnham Deepdale offers an abundance of wild life to enjoy.

There are many circular and coastal walks around the village including Barrow Common, with views over the coastline, or the Norfolk Coastal Path, which runs the length of the village, along the marshes.
