SITUATION The highly sought-after village of Brancaster sits in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the North Norfolk Coast and is home to the Royal West Norfolk Golf Club and miles of beautiful sandy beach, salt marsh and grass fringed dunes. Perfect for enjoyment on lazy summer days there are year round fantastic leisure pursuits including bird watching with famous bird reserves at nearby Titchwell and Holme, wonderful coastal walks, cycling and sailing at Brancaster Staithe.

The village store is within easy walking distance from the house for essentials with a great deli and coffee shop as is The Ship Inn/Hotel. The village hall enjoys great local support and offers monthly inclusive events. The village also has large playing fields and new tennis courts. A footpath close by Skippers Piece leads away from the road and makes a delightful walk to the beach.

The Coast hopper bus runs from the main road to Hunstanton all along the coast and neighbouring villages offer many highlights, including in Thornham, The Lifeboat and The Orange Tree pubs, Thornham Deli and restaurant and the ever-expanding Drove Orchard has a farm shop selling local produce, pick your own, Gurney’s Fish Shed, Eric’s Fish and Chip shop and The Yurt Pizza restaurant. It also has several clothing and gift shops, a garden nursery and a hairdressing salon.

Brancaster Staithe is a short drive or a 20-minute walk away along the new boardwalk across the marsh. It has a natural harbour from which picturesque tidal creeks wind their way out to Scolt Head Island Nature Reserve. The island is easily accessible by kayak, canoe or paddleboard as well as larger craft, and a regular ferry runs from Burnham Overy Staithe, a little further down the coast.
You can also buy delicious fresh fish from the Fish Shed in Brancaster Staithe or visit Dalegate Market with its café, shops, small supermarket and garage.

The popular village of Burnham Market is just five miles to the south with attractive Georgian properties running along the edge of the large village green. Here there is an eclectic selection of designer boutiques and traditional shops, including a butcher, fresh fish shop, art galleries, wine merchant and deli.

DESCRIPTION

Four Skippers Piece is a beautifully designed traditional brick and flint modern house, as you step into the reception hall your eye is immediately drawn straight through to views of the lovely garden. The majority of the ground floor is semi open plan with defined areas that flow easily for sociable living and entertaining.

The main hallway is currently set up as a dining hall, with north aspect and a very smart contemporary staircase leading up to the first floor. Leading off this is a small but perfectly formed study, fully fitted with bespoke cabinetry and book shelving, this is the perfect quiet place to work. There is also a separate cloakroom leading off this hall.

To your right as you enter, the kitchen is dual aspect to the north and south, it is fully fitted with a range of sleek base and wall units with high shine finishes and stone worktops. Integrated appliances include a Rangemaster electric cooker with induction hob and extractor fan above, a Bosch dishwasher and full-size fridge freezer and a half-sized wine cooling fridge. This is a beautifully designed space with useful storage solutions and an island/breakfast bar for informal dining.

There is a brilliant utility/boot room leading off the kitchen, like everything in the house it has been really well thought out, with stable door for good ventilation, built in coat and boot storage areas, off the beach shower (also ideal of muddy dogs!) Belfast sink and space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer. A cupboard in this room houses the pressurised water tank, water softener and air source heat pump controls.

The new extension leads off the kitchen with a lovely exposed flintwork wall and the same oak flooring that runs throughout the ground floor reception rooms, this orangery/dining area is full of natural light with a large remote control opening glass lantern window above and bifold doors on two sides that on a warm day can open wide for seamless indoor outdoor living.

The orangery connects to the sitting room, which also has bifold doors opening to the garden, a large comfortable room with a woodburning stove and built in media storage shelving.

A very elegant oak open tread staircase with glass balustrade and LED lighting, takes you to the first-floor landing. Here there are three double bedrooms, this entire first floor has vaulted ceilings that give a wonderful sense of space and light.

The principal bedroom has double aspect to the north and south with views over the garden and benefits from a very spacious contemporary shower room with large shower, WC, heated towel rail and double vanity unit. There is also a large wardrobe cupboard in this bathroom. Both this bathroom and the bedroom have cupboards that give access to very spacious loft storage areas.

It should be noted that when the house was originally designed this room would have been two with a bunk room on the north end and a good-sized main bedroom on the south side, this could be reinstated if more bedrooms were needed.

The main guest bedroom is on the south side of the house, a lovely spacious room with built in storage and a large ensuite shower room. There is a further double bedroom and a very stylish family bathroom, with an elegant oval bath, a large shower and white sanitary wear.

OUTSIDE

The house sits well back from the coast road hidden by tall laurel hedges. It is approached over a smart shingled driveway fringed with lavender and box hedges. This leads to the front of the property where there is a small area of lawn with tall pleached evergreen eleagnus giving privacy and a shingled parking area for several cars. On this side of the house the single garage is semi-detached, like most garages it provides extremely useful storage space, particularly as the loft area is also fully boarded too.

A further integral garage was partly converted into the utility room, but it retains useful space for bicycle and garden storage.

There is gated pedestrian access on either side of the property leading to the back garden, a fabulous outside space with a generous sandstone paved terrace running the width of the property. Fully enclosed by wooden fencing and the laurel hedging on the roadside, it benefits from several established specimen trees including Ash and Sycamore with newer eucalyptus, apple, and oak trees. All year-round colour and interest comes with a variety of shrubs and herbaceous plants.

The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn. At the top of the garden a pedestrian gate allows easy access without having to follow the driveway on foot.

This is a smart and really practical property, it would make a lovely full-time home, second home or investment and we highly recommend viewing.
