Description

Nestled in the heart of the peaceful and historic village of Barney, Middle Cottage is a beautifully presented period home that has been lovingly updated to blend traditional charm with modern comforts. This delightful mid-terrace cottage offers an idyllic semi-rural lifestyle, positioned almost equidistant between the vibrant market towns of Holt and Fakenham, providing easy access to an array of local amenities while enjoying the tranquility of village life.

The interior of Middle Cottage is exceptionally well-balanced, with the ground floor featuring a welcoming sitting room and a spacious kitchen/dining room, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The idyllic conservatory, with its westerly aspect, serves as a serene additional reception space, allowing you to bask in the beauty of your garden and soak up the evening sun. Upstairs, the cottage offers two well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom, ensuring comfortable accommodation for residents and guests alike.

Outside, the property boasts a substantial and attractive outbuilding, which is ideal for storage of garden tools or perhaps for keeping bicycles and kayaks. The cottage also benefits from a private parking space just outside the front, a rare and valuable feature in such a charming village setting. Middle Cottage is the perfect retreat for those seeking a blend of history, comfort, and countryside living in one of Norfolk's most picturesque locales. 

BARNEY An enviable location in north Norfolk, Barney is a picturesque and attractive small village in a secluded area, just to the south of Thursford and about eight miles from the Georgian market town of Holt.

There's an historic church, St Mary's, which, in parts, dates back to Saxon times, and there is holiday accommodation for beautiful retreats. The village is surrounded by meadows and woodlands.

A strong sense of community thrives among the proud residents and local businesses of Holt, and many of the latter champion the local 'Love Holt' initiative which waves the flag for the independent shops that add vibrancy to the Georgian town centre. Throughout the year, there are plenty of local events including a summer Holt Festival and 1940s Weekend, which takes over the town and 'Poppy Line' heritage railway that runs between here and Sheringham.

With a traditional butcher, fishmonger and greengrocer, the town even has its own department store and food hall, Bakers and Larners, a local landmark which has been run by the same family since 1770.

The town and its surrounding yards house a collection of chic boutiques and luxe lifestyle stores to explore and fill your home and wardrobe with beautiful things - linger and choose your favourite locally made fragrance at Norfolk Natural Living.

If you are looking for the perfect spot to enjoy country life, Holt is one of Norfolk's finest market towns with easy reach to the coast and city and if this sounds like your kind of place, let us help you to find your next property.
