Key information
Property description & features
- Two Double Bedroom Period Cottage
- Fully Refurbished in 2021
- Inglenook Fireplace and Exposed Beams
- South Facing, Private Garden
- Garage and Off Road Parking
Whilst this cottage is naturally entered through its back door, it is important to acknowledge and appreciate the wonderfully bucolic experience that is approaching this beautiful little home over its equally quaint footbridge above the River Burn, leading to the front door.
On the ground floor there are three rooms, a sleek and stylish kitchen, fitted in 2021, an equally contemporary shower room completed at the same time and then, to the front, the sitting room. What was once the village blacksmiths in the 1800s, is now an incredibly cosy and comforting space. With its inglenook fireplace and reclaimed ship beamed ceiling, this room is an idyllic space, who wouldn't want to light the log burner and curl up in here after a blustery autumnal walk?
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one of which is currently arranged as a twin room. To the front there are wonderful country views, whilst the rear overlooks the garden.
The south-facing rear garden has a large patio area with the remainder lawned, ensuring ease of maintenance. Sitting out in this incredibly private and quiet garden with a good book is a favourite for our sellers during the summer.
Ducktails has been a wonderful home from home and it has been a space for our sellers to relax and enjoy time together as a family. They hope that the next custodians of Ducktails love and enjoy it as much as they have.
SOUTH CREAKE A very popular rural village, South Creake has a pretty village green through which the River Burn runs.
The Ostrich pub has recently undergone a huge refurbishment and now provides not only an intimate village pub but also an outstanding restaurant. There is a homegrown fruit and vegetable stall, a children's play area, tennis courts and fishing lakes.
The village has a vibrant community and the busy village hall is home to many events.
South Creake is about five miles from the village of Burnham Market which is located close to the mouth of the River Burn, believed to be the source of its name, the village has long been associated with naval hero Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived at nearby Burnham Thorpe.
A refined elegance permeates every aspect of village life, from the traditional homewares found at Uttings, the locals 'go-to' for household essentials, to sampling tasty treats at the Tuscan Farm Shop, Humble Pie Deli or Gurneys Fish Shop – this is a place to savour the finer things. For amenities, Burnham Market Stores is well-stocked and The Post Office, Burnham Motors Garage - for mechanical needs - and the petrol station are all also very useful. Eating out is also a joy with award winning Socius serving a British-inspired tapas menu on the edge of Foundry Place, and NoTwenty9's bar, restaurant and courtyard provides a relaxed spot to wine and dine on warm summer's nights.
Fakenham and Wells-next-the-Sea both have primary and secondary schools.
South Creake is perfectly positioned for the beautiful north Norfolk coast.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 6, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
