About
Set high above Holt Road and built into the natural bank, 5B Holt Road presents an exciting opportunity for those seeking a project with outstanding potential and exceptional views.
This detached home is in need of full cosmetic renovation, yet already benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a modern boiler, providing a solid foundation for a striking coastal residence.
Stepping inside, the entrance hall leads to a versatile rear room which would lend itself perfectly to a utility or laundry space.
To the front of the house you will find a generous lounge/dining room, filled with natural light and opening on to the frontage through patio doors.
This room was originally part of a boathouse, and now offers a fantastic footprint for a future open plan kitchen and family living space, allowing the upper floor to be fully utilised for bedrooms.
The ground floor also incorporates an integral single garage with an up-and-over door, providing useful storage or secure parking.
The first floor offers three double bedrooms leading from the landing.
Two include built-in wardrobes, while the largest currently arranged as an upstairs sitting room enjoys a dual aspect and remarkable panoramic views across Sheringham, the townscape and the sea beyond.
The existing kitchen is located upstairs and provides access to a rear patio, giving the option for al fresco dining or morning coffee.
Completing the accommodation is the bathroom, fitted with a bath, separate shower cubicle and hand basin, along with a separate WC on the landing.
Outside, off-road parking is provided via a shared access driveway with the neighbouring property.
To the front, a lawned area sits to the left of the house and leads around to a sheltered courtyard at the rear.
From here, steps rise to a further elevated lawn, culminating in a remarkable seating area positioned higher than the roofline of the house itself.
From this vantage point, you can enjoy what must be considered one of the finest views over Sheringham and its coastline a truly special outlook and a rare feature in any property.
With its unique layout, elevated setting and enviable views, 5B Holt Road offers the chance to create a highly individual home in a sought-after coastal town.
