Explore the hamlet of White Horse Common

Positioned in the idyllic hamlet of White Horse Common, this residence enjoys a truly enviable setting, just two miles east of North Walsham and bordering Dilham Canal. This is countryside living at its finest: peaceful, picturesque, and perfectly connected.

The location offers the best of both worlds. While surrounded by unspoiled natural beauty, you're only minutes from the thriving market town of North Walsham, with its excellent selection of schools, healthcare facilities, independent shops, supermarkets, and a variety of pubs and restaurants. The town also benefits from regular rail and bus links, providing swift access to Norwich and the stunning North Norfolk coast.

Just five miles away lie some of the region’s most beautiful beaches and coastal paths, inviting you to explore the dramatic landscapes and seascapes that make this part of Norfolk so unique.

Whether you're seeking a rural location, a family home with access to top amenities, or a base to explore the coast and countryside, this property is perfectly positioned to deliver on every front. It is a rare blend of rural charm, natural beauty, and modern convenience, a place where lifestyle and location is exceptional.

Ebridge Mill: A Historic Landmark of Norfolk

Located beside the North Walsham and Dilham Canal, Ebridge Mill is a key piece of Norfolk’s industrial heritage. Built in the early 19th century as a watermill, it played a crucial role in the local grain trade. As industry advanced, the mill embraced steam power and grew into a vital part of the region’s economy.

The nearby canal enabled efficient transport of flour and other goods, linking the mill to wider markets. Though milling operations ceased in the 20th century, the mill has since been thoughtfully converted into residential homes.

Today, Ebridge Mill stands as a lasting reminder of Norfolk’s agricultural and industrial past, preserved for future generations.

Millside

Configured with an 'upside down' layout to maximise its striking architectural features and picturesque surroundings, the top floor unveils an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space. This expansive area is framed by a vaulted ceiling that enhances the sense of volume and light, while a multi-fuel burning stove provides a cosy and elegant focal point.

The bespoke kitchen is a statement of sophistication and functionality, featuring premium wall and base cabinetry, a high-end cooker with extractor hood, integrated dishwasher, dedicated space for a fridge/freezer, and a stylish central island with a breakfast bar, ideal for casual meals or social gatherings. A window over the sink provides uninterrupted views of the canal, anchoring the space in its natural setting. A separate utility room ensures all practical needs are met with seamless discretion. The adjoining dining and living areas are perfect for hosting guests or enjoying relaxed family time, complemented by a convenient WC on this level.

Descending to the mid-level, a versatile garden room or office offers an additional reception space, currently used as a reception space with seating arrangements, with French doors opening directly onto the landscaped garden—an inviting link between indoor and outdoor living.

The ground floor is home to three generously proportioned double bedrooms, each curated for comfort and privacy. The principal suite features a built-in wardrobe and a private en-suite, while the two additional bedrooms are served by a luxuriously appointed family bathroom, complete with a four-piece suite, including a bath, a separate shower, and designer fittings.

Outside, the garden is a true extension of the home’s serene atmosphere. The patio terrace is perfect for al-fresco dining, barbecues, or unwinding with a drink in hand, while the well-tended lawn is bordered by planted beds and mature shrubs, offering seasonal colour and seclusion. At the far end, a charming summerhouse provides a peaceful space with views across the adjacent canal, accompanied by a patio area and steps leading to the water’s edge—a rare and idyllic feature. A shingled driveway provides ample off-road parking, and a garage offers additional storage solutions.

This is not merely a home, but a lifestyle offering steeped in history, beautifully situated in one of Norfolk’s most picturesque settings. Ebridge Mill is a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of heritage, exquisitely reinvented for modern living.

Welcome to Minors & Brady, your local, independent estate agents. If you're thinking of buying, selling, or letting, then you've come to the right place. We were recently awarded first place in 'best estate agency office' in the whole of Norfolk and Suffolk and we came third in the whole of the U.K. at the ESTAS, the UK's largest estate agency awards hosted by Phil Spencer from 'Location Location'.    Our story is an interesting one. Jamie Minors and Alex Brady were passionate estate agents who had relentlessly worked their way up from Trainee Negotiators, to Senior Valuers, to Branch Managers for other firms; Pymm & Co and Haart respectively. Both Jamie and Alex had a long term plan to build their way of buying and selling via their own brand to ensure their same ethos was practiced daily. As competing rivals in the property industry, but friends outside of business, they coincidentally both realised they were due to set up their own firms in the same area.    After much discussion, they both realised they wanted the same thing; to deliver the best possible service to all buyers and sellers across Norfolk, with one 'super team' under one brand.    From there, as they say, the rest is history. Minors & Brady is now an award winning estate agent offering an unrivalled level of service in our area. Our key strength is that an owner of the business oversees all aspects of buying and selling, 7 days a week.
