About
An Exceptional Coastal Country Home Set Within Approximately 3.5 Acres of Private Grounds Occupying a secluded setting within approximately 3.5 acres (stms) of beautifully landscaped gardens, private woodland and paddock, this exceptional country residence combines elegant period architecture with outstanding contemporary living, all just one mile from the renowned North Norfolk coastline.
Approached via a sweeping gravel driveway beneath a canopy of mature trees, the house immediately conveys a sense of privacy, permanence and understated luxury.
Extending to over 4,100 square feet, the property has been thoughtfully remodelled to create an exceptional family home where light-filled open spaces sit effortlessly alongside elegant reception rooms.
Perfectly positioned between the coast and countryside, and within easy reach of the historic Georgian town of Holt and the highly regarded Gresham’s School, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy one of Norfolk’s most desirable lifestyles.
Contemporary Living At the heart of the home lies a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and family room designed for modern family life and entertaining.
Flooded with natural light from a striking roof lantern and opening through full-width bi-fold doors onto the landscaped terrace, the space seamlessly connects indoors and out.
A substantial central island, contemporary handleless cabinetry, integrated appliances and beautifully finished flooring combine to create a room that is both elegant and practical-the true heart of the home.
The adjoining terrace extends the living space outdoors, with generous areas for al fresco dining, beautifully planted borders and a substantial cedar-roofed gazebo creating a sheltered outdoor sitting room overlooking the gardens.
Elsewhere, a series of beautifully proportioned reception rooms provide flexible accommodation for entertaining, working from home or quiet family life, while large windows frame views across the mature grounds from every aspect.
First Floor The first floor offers five generously proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite, together with beautifully appointed bathrooms and ample storage throughout.
Designed to accommodate both growing families and visiting guests, the house offers a balance of generous entertaining spaces and peaceful private accommodation.
Grounds and Gardens Beautifully landscaped gardens surround the house, complemented by expansive lawns, mature specimen trees, colourful planting, private woodland with pond and a 3⁄4-acre paddock, offering exceptional versatility for those seeking a true country lifestyle.
A traditional cart shed, detached garage, extensive gravel parking and additional outbuildings further enhance the property's practicality without compromising its elegant setting.
Lifestyle This is far more than simply a substantial family home.
It is a property designed for entertaining on summer evenings beneath the gazebo, family gatherings spilling effortlessly from the kitchen onto the terrace, peaceful walks through private woodland and weekends exploring the spectacular North Norfolk coastline.
Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains exceptionally well connected, being just over a mile from the beach, close to Cromer’s vibrant town centre, within easy reach of Holt and conveniently situated for Gresham’s School, one of the country’s most respected independent schools.
Whether as a principal residence or an exceptional coastal retreat, this is a home that offers an enviable quality of life throughout every season.
