Wolterton

Located in the heart of the Wolterton estate, close to Blickling Hall, Keepers Cottage showcases a wealth of character with an idyllic contemporary blend. A wonderfully eclectic mix of old-world character and a uniquely bespoke modern interior, Keepers Cottage offers the opportunity to immerse themselves amongst the ancient woodlands and pasture of the surrounding estate for a true experience of Norfolk.

The detached Keepers Cottage is comprised of four bedrooms and three bathrooms, spread over two floors, with each room being the beneficiary of the care and attention that has been lavished upon it by the owners. Indeed, no two rooms are the same, which has created a home that is full of fun, while still being a place where you can escape and relax.

The cottage is surrounded by a garden with mature planting, as you would expect from a cottage 200 years old! Amongst the old cherry trees, peonies and the irises, you will find plenty of lawn with the garden also being entirely enclosed. The enchanting wild pond is the gardens centre point and welcomes an array of wildlife throughout all seasons.

Offered on a fully furnished basis, Keepers Cottage is available September 3rd on a six month let only.  

NORWICH This ancient city has been home to writers, radicals and fiercely independent spirits for over a thousand years, and today continues in its legacy as an enclave of culture and creativity. It's perfectly preserved medieval streets are home to a thriving community of small businesses, a vibrant food scene and an established arts culture. It is also a gateway to a county that continues to inspire people with its unspoilt landscapes, open spaces and big skies.

Named as one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich lies approximately 20 miles from the coast at the confluence of the River Yare and the River Wensum, the latter still bending its way through the heart of the city. In the 11th Century, Norwich was the second largest city in the country, and today is still the UK's most complete medieval city. Strolling through the historic cobbled streets of Elm Hill, whatever the season, the Tudor architecture retains its character and beauty. Laced with merchant's houses, thatching, individual homes, speciality shops and small cafes, you'll be led toward the 1,000-year-old Norwich Cathedral.
To the west of the city the University of East Anglia is a remarkable example of brutalist architecture, and the campus is also home to the Sainsbury centre, a permanent collection of modern and ethnographic art, gifted by the Sainsbury family.

Property types in Norwich are incredibly diverse, from city-centre Victorian properties, converted mills and barns, townhouses and luxury new-builds. Central to the city, Newmarket Road is noted for it's selection of grand houses, and the 'Golden Triangle' neighbourhood is a favourite with families. There are also an array of beautiful rural villages within a short drive, notably Stoke Holy Cross to the south, Surlingham to the east, or Bawburgh to the west, where larger rural properties and small estates are often brought to market.

When the bright lights call, trains to Liverpool Street take just 90 minutes, and the city's airport flies to a number of UK destinations, as well as direct to Amsterdam.

This is a city that reveals itself the longer you stay - a city to fall in love with - a city to be a part of.
