3 bedroom cottage

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this attractive character cottage, situated in a delightful rural setting in the heart of the North Norfolk countryside. With a highly-regarded gastro pub on the doorstep and miles of countryside walks available, the cottage serves as the perfect rural retreat, with the added benefit of being less than a 10-minute drive away from the charming market town of Aylsham.

The cottage offers well-proportioned accommodation over two floors, along with mature gardens and a garage with a private driveway. Original features adorn the stylish interior of the cottage; particularly in the sitting room, which displays an inglenook fireplace and a beamed ceiling. Elsewhere, more recent additions and installations enhance the living space, such as the delightful garden room which offers fabulous versatility to the ground floor, complementing the original part of the building. Upstairs there are three bedrooms arranged around the spacious landing, all of which can accommodate a double bed and are equipped with built-in storage.

ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed through the porch into the spacious inner hall, where there are a pair of large built-in storage cupboards and a door into the ground floor cloakroom. The main reception space is the impressive sitting room, which is not only generous in size, but also displays a stunning array of ceiling beams, an inglenook fireplace housing a wood burning stove and pamment tile flooring. Double doors from the sitting room lead out to the delightful garden room, with a glazed roof and an expanse of glazing on the rear wall, with a pair of doors leading out to the garden.

The kitchen enjoys a cosy cottage atmosphere, with a stable door opening out to a rear entrance canopy. The kitchen comprises a collection of fitted storage units under work surfaces which extend into a breakfast bar, with an integrated fridge and freezer alongside a free-standing range cooker, as well as plumbing/space for other appliances.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms arranged around the spacious landing area. Bedrooms 1 and 2 are both generous double rooms that are equipped with built-in wardrobes. Bedroom 3 is a more compact double or an extremely comfortable single room, which also has fitted wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a neatly appointed shower room on the first floor.

OUTSIDE

The mature and colourful gardens are a wonderful feature of the property. To the front of the cottage there is a private driveway leading to a timber framed garage/workshop (measuring approx. 22' x 12'4"), with an electrical power supply. The front garden is laid to lawn with planted borders and has steps leading to the front door.

Access at the side of the cottage leads around to the private rear garden, which includes a paved lower tier with a water feature and steps up to the main lawn, where there is a wildlife pond, well-stocked borders, a timber summer house, a potting shed and a paved seating area. There is also another shed at the top of the garden, next to the summer house, that is currently being used as a home gym.
