SITUATION
The highly popular coastal village of Blakeney offers two pubs, a variety of eateries including The Moorings, Two Magpies bakery and coffee shop and the historic Blakeney hotel, Manor Coastal Hotel and Blakeney House. There is a well-stocked village supermarket, fishmonger, delicatessen. The village hall also offers tennis courts, children’s playground and playing field and a spectacular parish church with primary school next door. Blakeney is a year-round lively village, as well as a holiday destination.
The picturesque market town of Holt is a short drive away and is renowned for its attractive street frontages, Greshams Schools and a wide range of independent shops and boutiques.
There is a buzz in the air as the region enjoys everything on offer from locally sourced butchers, fishmongers and farmers markets to artisan bakers, cool coffee shops, restaurants, delicatessens, up-market farm shops and art galleries.
This is an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with low-tide access to the salt marshes and Blakeney Point. Leisure activities include a dingy sailing/racing club, skiff rowing club, outstanding bird watching, seal trips, crab catching from the quay, long distance coastal footpaths and enormous sandy beaches; all this by walking straight out of the front door, in addition to golf at Sheringham, Cromer, Brancaster and Hunstanton and splendid sightseeing and historic houses like Holkham, Houghton, Felbrigg and Blickling.

DESCRIPTION
The Deck House is an impressive modern brick, timber and composite clad property with statement rooflines, impressive internal vaulted ceilings and large expanses of glazing.
The front door leads into a bright vaulted double height reception hall and dining room with oak stairs leading up to the galleried landing above. French doors open from the dining area to the decking and the same limestone flooring with the benefit of underfloor heating runs throughout the entire house.
Glazed French doors open from here into an impressive recently extended sitting room with wood burning stove, half vaulted ceiling triple aspect and full height glazing on the west gable.
The bespoke kitchen is beautifully fitted by Simply Kitchens of East Rudham, with an extensive range of base and wall cabinets providing practical and well thought out storage solutions under granite worktops. Integrated appliances include a Rangemaster double electric cooker and Bosch dishwasher and space and plumbing for an American style fridge freezer. There is plenty of space here for dining table and chairs too.
The newly added garden room is the perfect place to relax with a wall of glazing and doors opening to the west facing terrace, this is a wonderfully light room with a large glass atrium flooding it with natural light.
There is a utility room leading off the kitchen, with fitted cabinets, washing machine, tumble dryer and an extra dishwasher. The boiler room is also accessed from here, the perfect drying and storage room for coats and boots.
A back door from the utility room gives easy access to a garden gate within the tall brick and flint wall that leads to the high street and quay, the perfect pedestrian short cut to the centre of Blakeney.
There are two bedrooms on the ground floor, the guest bedroom benefits from an ensuite shower room, and the other room is currently used as a study but has use of the adjacent family bathroom with bath with shower over, vanity, heated towel rail and an integrated second washing machine.
Taking the stairs to the galleried landing, here you really get an impressive vantage point to the ground floor. There are three further bedrooms on this level; the principal bedroom sits alone on the west end of the house with a fully fitted walk through dressing room and ensuite bathroom with bath, separate shower heated towel rail and white sanitary ware.
The two remaining double bedrooms share use of an equally nicely fitted family bathroom.
__________
OUTSIDE
The Deck house sits in a fabulous, secluded location, just a stone’s throw from Blakeney High Street. Once an old orchard some of the original fruit trees remain, with further planting of mature shrubs and trees, this is an easily maintained garden.
Entering through solid wooden gates, the garden is surrounded by a mixture of brick and flint walls and hedging offering genuine privacy in the heart of the village.
The house benefits from a single garage with adjoining car port, and plenty of private car parking. There is also a separate wooden shed and log store. On the south side of the house there is timber decking and a sandstone terrace. It offers a wonderful place for outside entertaining, and relaxation.
A terraced path runs around the house and there is a further east facing morning terrace by the back door, perfect for breakfast. A garden gate on this side gives pedestrian access to Blakeney High Street.
Whether you are looking for a full time home, holiday retreat or investment this is a home that we highly recommend.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 8, 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).

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
