Delightful edge of village home of charming brick and flint.
Description
Appleby Cottage is a charming and unspoilt Grade II listed rural house, of attractive brick and flint under pantile roof, and enjoying a peaceful position set amongst North Norfolk countryside on the edge of the village.
Set back from a small country lane, with parking, the cottage is a lovely example of the traditional Norfolk brick and flint architecture that the north of the county is famous for. The house is currently configured for two families, with two kitchens, a lovely open plan dining/sitting room with wood burner, a further dining room with inglenook fireplace and a large sitting room with wood burner.
There are two staircases up to bedroom accommodation, currently configured as five bedrooms although one bedroom is accessed from another and may be best suited as a large bathroom or dressing room to compliment the principal bedroom. The bedrooms enjoy fine views of the gardens and surrounding countryside.
The house enjoys period detail throughout, and is in good decorative order in places, but It would be fair to say the house would benefit from updating in parts. The house has potential for a possible loft conversation.
Outside
Appleby Cottage is approached from the north, with two entrances to a parking area adjoining the house. To the west is a useful outbuildings and sheds.
The gardens are delightful, of just under half an acre, mainly to the west, south and east of the house. There are grass paths meandering through well stocked herbaceous flower beds, leading through an orchard and sweeping round to an expanse of lawn, with flower beds and green house. The gardens are well arranged and provide a good foundation for further landscaping.
Location
Appleby Cottage is within the unspoilt North Norfolk village of Lower Gresham, surrounded by pretty and undulating countryside enjoyed by a network of footpaths and bridleways.
The bustling Georgian town of Holt, only 6.5 miles away, is famous for its boutique shopping including Bakers & Larners, Byfords delicatessen and many independent retailers alongside art galleries, antiques shops, jewellers, restaurants and cafes. The renowned Gresham’s preparatory and senior schools are on the edge of the town, with further preparatory education at Beeston Hall School near Sheringham.
The North Norfolk Coast, designated an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, can be found approximately 3.5 miles away with a plethora of public houses, restaurants, direct access to beaches, excellent sailing and bird watching, with a network of
footpaths to enjoy.
