Sheringham

Location Sheringham is a delightful small town in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the North Norfolk coast, nestling between the sea and Pretty Corner woods. There are excellent coastal and woodland walks in the vicinity and Sheringham enjoys a blue flag status and is a mix of shingle and sand depending on the tide, with a wide promenade running the length of the town.

The town is extremely popular for both holiday and retirement and the centre has an excellent range of independent shops and Tesco's supermarket. Bus and rail links give access to the bustling city of Norwich some 27 miles south, the nearby Georgian town of Holt is 6 miles south-west and the Victorian town of Cromer is just over 4 miles east along the coastline. There is a modern heath centre, dentist, theatre and library together with Reef Leisure Centre and a magnificent 18-hole cliff top golf course. The town plays host to several events throughout the year including The Viking Festival, Crab & Lobster Festival, Coastal Air Festival, Carnival and 1940's Weekend. If fitness is your thing there is also a park run every Saturday morning at 9am in Sheringham Park, owned by the National Trust. 

Description Standing in a sought after location close to the coastal path and Beeston Bump this particularly well presented and tastefully decorated detached house dating from the early 1900's has a number of features reflecting the Arts & Crafts period. The present owners who have been in residence for some 25 years have considerably improved the property over this time the more notable being the re-fitting of the generous kitchen/breakfast with a John Lewis kitchen, up-grading of the delightful garden/day room with a solid roof, feature roof windows and lighting and insulation of the external walls. The property was also re-roofed in 2024.

There are four bedrooms in total sharing a shower room. On the ground floor a delightful snug with bay window is centred around a feature fireplace with wood burning stove. The sitting room, once again with feature fireplace and wood burner has a wide opening into the garden/day room. The owners have also obtained planning permission to extend the breakfast area within the kitchen and overlooking the rear garden and above on the first floor enlarging the existing fourth bedroom currently used as a study, into a first floor sitting room to take full advantage of the fantastic views to the rear over Sheringham and the surrounding countryside beyond.

The rear garden with southerly aspect and extending to nearly 200' has been landscaped to create a low maintenance Mediterranean style garden with gravel and bark chippings covering the majority and a rich variety pf planting to include a tree fern, two impressive Cordylines and established bamboo.

The property is offered with no onward chain and an early viewing of this well proportioned, well presented home is recommended by the sole selling agents.
