Enjoying a peaceful setting within a popular North Norfolk village, this idiosyncratic home boasts a wealth of period features alongside a striking and dramatic conversion - providing characterful accommodation which is certain to leave an impression.
The high-vaulted ceiling is filled with reams of natural light whilst intelligent architecture has been utilised to provide cosy nooks to balance the drama of these elevated volume areas.
The ground floor is dominated by a stunning open-plan lifestyle room, providing sociable and modern accommodation under the ornate panelled full-height ceiling.
A contemporary kitchen adds sharp lines to the historic space whilst the original flooring sprawls across the generous living/dining areas.
The principal bedroom can also be found on the ground floor and is well-served by the nearby family shower room.
A splendid galleried landing adorns the first floor, affording excellent views of the main reception and further immersion in to the history of the structure.
Two further bedrooms can be found on the first floor, both served by the central family bathroom with a free-standing bath and vanity basin.
Sitting proudly in its plot, the handsome building can be admired from any vantage point in the garden with ample off-road parking and multiple lawned areas, scattered throughout the wrap-around plot.
BRISTON An old wool village between Fakenham and Holt, Briston has easy access to the North Norfolk coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
There is a junior school, nursery school, local butcher, bakery, two pubs, two grocery shops, a Post Office and a good Medical Practice. There's also an 18th century cast iron cello in the Parish Church, which has a surprisingly good tone.
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.
Life moves at a leisurely pace in Holt, and there are plenty of places to idle over a coffee or bite to eat. Believed to be the oldest house in town, Byfords deli and café is a central landmark and fabulous place to stop and watch the world go by. There's no need to hurry home – relax and enjoy country life! On the edge of town is the eponymous Gresham's school.
If you are looking for the perfect spot to enjoy country life, Briston is perfectly situated near to 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.
