A fantastic 21' dual aspect, formal sitting room features a decorative brick open fireplace and creates a spacious yet homely area for entertaining.

The innovative rear extension has created an exceptional lifestyle area that seamlessly combines a flexible reception area, kitchen, and dining space.

The kitchen features an extensive range of shaker cabinetry capped in solid oak worktops and a central breakfast island with a crisp quartz worktop.

Panelled fencing encloses the garden on each side whilst the rear boundary is currently open to ensure fabulous views over rolling countryside.

This superb residence sits in a wonderful village location in Sustead, which is perfectly placed close to the North Norfolk coast and the towns of Sheringham and Cromer. 

SUSTEAD Steeped in history and featuring an eclectic mix of period cottages, barns and farmhouses, Sustead
is a small village in north Norfolk, close to the coastal towns of Sheringham and Cromer, and 18 miles north of Norwich, with its rail connection to London and the rest of the country.

Sustead church, St Peter and St Paul is a pretty building that stands to the west of the village with a lovely round tower. The famous architect and landscape designer, Humphry Repton (1752-1818), lived much of his life in Sustead, and with one of his most notable projects being Sheringham Hall and Park.

Countryside walks are in abundance locally, whilst Felbrigg Hall and Estate, a National Trust treasure, is just two miles away.

With an elegant pier, Pavilion Theatre and grand Victorian villas, many with panoramic views over the pebble and sand beach, it's easy to see why Cromer, which is just five miles away, has perennial appeal to many.

Spend a morning exploring the pretty boutiques and follow the lanes towards the seafront to pick up a Cromer crab – widely regarded as one of the best found in English waters, the eight-legged crustacean still provides a major source of income for the town's fishermen and simply served with bread makes an unbeatable lunch or supper!

Or push the boat out with fish and chips from No 1 Cromer, Galton Blackiston's award winning Cromer eatery perched on the clifftop. Treat yourself to a relaxing lunch at the Upstairs Restaurant where stunning sea views meet tasty seafood, or join the queue downstairs and enjoy your takeaway sitting on the wall as the seagulls soar above you for a fully immersive 'beside the seaside' experience. Follow the slope down from the clifftop to the beach and walk the shoreline or practise your hand at an afternoon skimming stones out to the horizon line.
