4 bedroom detached house to rent

Set within a generous plot, Hamilton House is a beautifully crafted home, originally designed and built by the Holkham Estate to reflect the traditional charm of its village setting. Carefully enhanced by its current owners, the property now offers a perfect balance of classic character and stylish, contemporary touches.

Approached via a private driveway leading to a double cart-shed garage with off-road parking for four vehicles, the house is also accessed by a reclaimed oak-framed walkway, lined with vintage red bricks, that leads through the landscaped garden and into the main entrance hallway.

At the heart of the home lies the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a central island ideal for relaxed dining, morning coffee, or casual entertaining. French doors open directly onto the south-facing garden, while a luxurious walk-in pantry adds both charm and practicality. A separate dining room offers flexibility - equally suited to more formal occasions, as a home office, or a cosy snug.

The main reception room is filled with natural light and features a traditional brick fireplace with an oak-beamed lintel and a wood-burning stove - the perfect place to unwind after a bracing walk or a visit to the local pub. Also on the ground floor is a spacious double bedroom, guest cloakroom, and a well-appointed utility and boot room.

Upstairs, the three double bedroom suites each have their own distinct personality. The principal suite is notably generous in size and includes bespoke fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. Designed with flair, the bedroom is adorned with dusky-hued Kit Kemp wallpaper, inspired by American folk art, to create a calming and magical space.

One of the standout features of the home is the artisan-crafted bunk room - a truly unique space inspired by the village’s naval heritage. Commissioned with exceptional detail, this bespoke room includes a king-sized bed flanked by adult-sized single beds and a raised bunk above, finished with salvaged maritime materials including reclaimed teak and Burmese timber. It’s a joyful space that captures the imagination and offers flexible accommodation for adults, children, or guests.

Outside, the professionally landscaped garden has been thoughtfully designed to thrive in the coastal setting, with pleached hornbeam hedging offering privacy and shelter. A reclaimed brick path leads to a large York stone patio, perfectly positioned to enjoy sunsets and alfresco dining. There is also planning permission in place for a garden room or all-weather entertaining space.

The double cart-shed garage provides generous storage above, accessed via an electric loft ladder, and planning consent exists for the construction of a boat shed or further outbuilding adjacent to the garage.

Hamilton House is a rare offering - a thoughtfully designed and beautifully finished home in a sought-after village, combining quality craftsmanship with comfort and charm.

BURNHAM THORPE
Burnham Thorpe is very much off the beaten track. It’s famous for being the birthplace of Nelson although his house was knocked down many years ago. The pub, The Lord Nelson, has recently reopened following substantial renovations. It’s just 2 miles from Burnham Market with its wide range of shops and boutiques together with good food establishments, and a little over 2 miles from the coastal village of Burnham Overy Staithe with its tidal harbour, and good walks across the marshes and long sandy beaches.

In an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Burnham Market is for many people the jewel in the crown of North Norfolk, a stunning Georgian village with a green surrounded by 18th century houses, shops and chic boutiques. Along with The Hoste Arms, it also boasts the exciting restaurants; Number 29, and Socius. The village has a range of amenities including doctors’ and dental surgeries, primary school and post office.

There is an abundance of small village shops including a butcher, fresh fish shop, beauty and hair salon. Also there are bookshops, art galleries, a good wine merchant, Satchells, and a popular delicatessen, Humble Pie. The village playing field has all weather tennis courts and children’s recreational equipment. The village is close to the sailing harbours at Brancaster Staithe and Burnham Overy Staithe and the Royal West Norfolk Golf Course at Brancaster. The closest rail link to London King’s Cross is at King’s Lynn.
