This beautifully restored character cottage is set in the heart of the countryside village of Southrepps. The property has a lovely central position in the village, within 150 metres of a shop, post office and traditional pub (the pub is only about 20 metres away). Set within a beautiful conservation area with direct walks and cycle paths onto the Paston Way, Weavers’ Way and Quiet Lanes scheme, all of which provide many miles of lanes, paths and bridleways around the countryside towards the Norfolk Coast Path or Bittern Line rambles. Southrepps is great for exploring the North Norfolk coast with so many wonderful beaches close by; Mundesley, Overstrand and Cromer are all within 5 miles. The Norfolk Broads (19 miles) and the cathedral city of Norwich (22 miles) are only a short drive away or visit the nearby Georgian market towns of Aylsham (9.5 miles) and Holt (14 miles). The National Trust properties of Felbrigg (6 miles) and Blickling (9.5 miles) also make for a great day out.
Stylishly restored to a very high standard with muted Farrow and Ball colours and elegant vintage furniture throughout, the cottage retains much of its original charm and character. Opening into the living and dining area, there are two comfortable sofas set around a wood burner, a Smart TV with Netflix, a DVD player with a selection of classic films, a variety of vintage board games and a Roberts Bluetooth stereo for streaming your own music. There is also a large antique farmhouse table with seating for four; great for playing games or for cosy dining next to the fire. Leading into the kitchen area from the living room via a light inner hallway, you can gain access to a useful downstairs shower room and WC. The kitchen is light, spacious and well equipped with solid wooden surfaces and quality cookware, crockery and a breakfast table. There are double French doors opening directly into the large, enclosed southeast-facing garden. Back inside the cottage, there is a door leading from the living room to the stairs, which take you to the two bedrooms and the main bathroom. The main bedroom has exposed beams and stripped oak floorboards, dual aspect, southwest-facing windows and a king-size bed. The second bedroom is a cosy twin, also with stripped-oak floorboards and sheepskin rugs. The main upstairs bathroom is completely renovated with a beautiful roll-top bath and views over the garden, perfect for a relaxing soak after a busy day walking through the countryside or at the beach.
To the rear of the property is a wonderful garden area with a patio and garden furniture. There is also a garden path leading you to the lawned area at the back of the garden which is bordered by gorgeous flower beds.
