South Raynham

Nestled in the middle of a terrace of former estate cottages, this immaculately presented and modernised property retains much of its characterful charm.

Our vendor loves the beauty of the area and fondly remembers the very first morning she woke up in the cottage, to a robin, a deer and rabbits in the garden. A particular favourite spot is sitting in the garden at sunset, and in winter sitting on the sofa in front of the huge fireplace.

The cottage has been modernised to provide a kitchen/breakfast room, and the reception hall is also used as a dining room, alongside the sitting room with its wood-burning stove. Upstairs, the three bedrooms are served by the ground floor bathroom.

Our vendor enjoys the proximity to the North Norfolk coast and the beautiful West Norfolk open countryside, much of which can be accessed on foot over the Raynham Estate. Access to Fakenham provides a choice of supermarkets and shops where local produce can be bought, plus a variety of amenities including sports centres, cinema, golf course and a National Hunt Racecourse.

It is time for our vendor to move to pastures new and for a new custodian to enjoy this simply idyllic cottage. 

SOUTH RAYNHAM Nestling in the heart of the north west Norfolk countryside. South Raynham is a sought-after, small historic village, approximately six miles from Fakenham, with a village hall. You are made to feel at peace here, surrounded by open countryside, leafy parkland, and with the historic Raynham Hall and church nearby. The parkland makes for excellent dog walking and exploring and there is a strong community spirit within the Raynhams.

If you desire the gentle bustle of a market town, Fakenham is approximately five miles away. Out of working hours, there's plenty to keep you entertained including the thriving independent Central Cinema, a perennial favourite with locals, reconnect with nature at Pensthorpe or blow the cobwebs with a walk at nearby Sculthorpe Moor.

For something fancier, dress up to the nines and enjoy a day out and a flutter at Fakenham Racecourse, or team up with your playing pals for a round at Fakenham Golf Club, set in and around the racecourse - if you need to perfect your swing, head to Fakenham Fairways Golf Driving Range which has a PGA professional on hand for some expert coaching. And Thursford is just four miles away with its magnificent collection of steam engines and organs - a visit to its Christmas spectacular gives a West End theatre excursion a run for its money!
