The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Thornleys Barn, a spacious and elegant home by the coast, which delivers both a warm and welcoming atmosphere, as well as offering a feeling of calm and privacy. Set back behind a pair of timber security gates, the property occupies a fully enclosed plot of around 0.25 acres with a private driveway and double garage to the front, and a superb entertaining space to the rear. The interior radiates a sense of style and sophistication throughout, from the recently refurbished kitchen and the adaptable reception rooms, to the exceptional master suite and the rest of the bedroom accommodation. It should also be noted that there is planning approval in place for the addition of a substantial extension and further alterations to the property.

The barn is situated in the very heart of the village, just a minute's walk from one of the three pubs in Thornham, and only a short stroll away from the highly-popular Thornham Deli.

ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed into the spacious reception hall, with tumbled limestone flooring, a pair of built-in coat cupboards and a door into the formal sitting room. The sitting room is a beautifully presented and well-proportioned space, with oak flooring, a wood burning stove and a pair of glazed doors which open into the dining area. The kitchen/dining area is a stunning feature, with generous space for a 10-seat dining table and one entire wall of cleverly concealed floor to ceiling storage units, alongside the main kitchen. The kitchen includes a further range of storage units in pale grey, with a matching central island and granite counter top with breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a NEFF oven, combi-oven, dishwasher and hob; as well as a bespoke recess for a full height fridge and freezer. From the kitchen there are two sets of bi-folding doors which open to the outside bar and covered seating area.

Across the hall from the sitting room is the highly versatile second reception room, which is currently used as a child's play room/TV snug. This room previously housed the kitchen and a useful utility area remains to one side of the room, with space for a washing machine and a door leading to the garden.

The stylishly-appointed master bedroom suite is located above the kitchen, offering an extensive range of fitted wardrobes and a dressing table, as well as enjoying a view over the rear garden. The luxurious en-suite includes a free-standing bath and a large tiled walk-in shower. The remaining bedroom accommodation is arranged around an inner hall which is accessed from the play room. There are two further double bedrooms, one of which has a recently modernised en-suite shower room, along with a single room and a separate family bathroom.

OUTSIDE

The barn is approached over a shingle driveway, with a pair of electrically operated security gates opening to a private parking area in front of the property, with access to the double garage. Gated access at the side at the side of the barn leads around to the delightful rear garden, which is the perfect place to entertain guests. Immediately outside the kitchen doors there is a paved terrace and decked seating area, part of which is under cover; along with an outside bar which is a wonderful feature that can be enjoyed throughout the year. There is also a sunken area for the hot tub, a bespoke children's tree house and an elevated plunge pool with a useful storage space below. Another adaptable feature is the fully powered and insulated cabin, which currently serves as a home gym but has also been used as the perfect place to work from home. The grounds, which extend to around 0.25 acres (stms), are beautifully maintained throughout and include neatly manicured lawns and box-hedges, and mature trees around the boundaries.

LOCATION

Thornham is a pretty and highly popular village on the North Norfolk coast, just a short drive from Brancaster Staithe and only 6 miles from Burnham Market. Listed within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the village offers a wealth of natural attractions, including the beach and marshes. The village contains a combination of traditional fisherman's cottages and larger, more modern properties, along with three excellent public houses, a popular deli/café and a number of individual shops at Drove Orchards on the outskirts of the village to the west. There is a small harbour near the beach, along with a boardwalk which leads back towards the RSPB bird reserve at Holme-next-the-sea..
