Tucked away just beside the gates to Burnham Westgate Hall and with delightful views south over the village green, Ivy Cottage is a beautifully presented early Georgian home.

As you step into Ivy Cottage, you are immediately welcomed by a characterful room with thick walls, a carved beam, and an elegant stone fireplace. This cosy space is perfect for relaxing in front of the log burner after a winter walk, and the south-facing mullioned bay window ensures it is well-lit during the summer. The room also features a built-in oak cabinet dating back to the 17th century, providing a clever hiding spot for the television.

Moving to the rear of the house, you'll find a stylish kitchen dining room designed and extended by the current owners, to compliment the Georgian charm. The room boasts an elegant Jem Lake kitchen as its centerpiece, a lantern ceiling over the dining area, and bi-fold doors leading out to the garden. Notably, the unique ceiling leading up to the first floor is intricately panelled to create a curved, unfurling sail impression.

Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, the largest of which has three windows that look out over the green and features semi-vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. The second bedroom has built-in bunks currently used for grandchildren, and both bedrooms share a sumptuous bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate shower cubicle.

There are two further rooms on the ground floor; leading off the sitting room is a cosy snug that also doubles as a further bedroom on occasion, and there is a generous utility room and guest WC to the side of the kitchen.

To the rear of the property is a pretty courtyard garden that is completely private and secure. Additionally, what were originally outhouses have been converted into a very useful laundry room and storage.

It will come as no surprise that Ivy Cottage was a finalist in the Homebuilding Magazine Competition for its incredible architectural design and it is difficult to accurately describe just what a wonderful feel this cottage has inside.

Whilst it is very much in the village centre, by adjoining the rear of the hall it is incredibly private and peaceful yet The Hoste is just a stone's throw away. 

BURNHAM MARKET Treasured memories of family holidays, a day at the world-famous horse trials, or an afternoon browsing pretty boutiques-there are many ways to experience Burnham Market, the jewel of north Norfolk.

Located near the River Burn, the village is historically linked to Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived nearby in Burnham Thorpe.

Refined elegance defines village life. Traditional homewares at Uttings, tasty treats at the Tuscan Farm Shop, Humble Pie Deli, or Gurneys Fish Shop-this place savors the finer things. Dining out is a joy with award-winning Socius offering British-inspired tapas, and NoTwenty9's bar and restaurant providing a relaxed spot for summer evenings.

Fashion thrives on the Champagne coast. For chic style, head to Anna's boutique, The Hat Shop for fancy headwear, Gun Hill Clothing Company for country attire, or Joules and Jack Wills for casual wear. For culture, explore Burnham Market's art galleries-the Fairfax Gallery and Pococks the Artmonger. For self-care, well-being boutique Aura 37 offers sustainable brands. If you have little ones, visit Mable's with its pink frontage for pot painting or traditional sweets.

Burnham Market and its smaller siblings, Burnham Deepdale, Burnham Norton, Burnham Overy Staithe, and Burnham Thorpe, boast some of the finest houses on the coast. Whether your dream is a Georgian classic, a traditional cottage, or a sleek contemporary house, this is a perfect place to discover your forever home.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 7, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

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

    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
