The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Appletree Cottage, a spacious and charming home located in the highly sought-after coastal village of Thornham. The home is situated just a 5-minute walk from the heart of the village, where you will find three fantastic pubs along with the highly popular Thornham Deli. The house provides generous-sized accommodation throughout that includes two large reception rooms, a kitchen with separate utility, a garden room and five comfortable-sized bedrooms with three ensuite bathrooms. The property occupies a wonderful plot of around 0.7 acres (STMS) with delightful front and rear gardens along with a private driveway, two garages, a large workshop and a beautiful field view to the rear. The large garage and workshop has also previously received planning permission in 2015 (now expired) to be converted into an additional three-bedroom dwelling, which could create an excellent opportunity for any potential buyer.


ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed into the property via the entrance hall, which provides access to the ground floor accommodation and features stairs leading to the first floor. The spacious living room is situated at the end of the hallway and features a large window and a set of glazed patio doors that look out onto the wonderful rear garden. The main focal point of the room however, is the charming feature fireplace with an open fire, which adds a cosy feel to the space. Also leading off the entrance hall is the good-sized dining room that enjoys views of both the front and rear gardens and features an attractive exposed brick fireplace. Next to the dining room is the rear entrance hall that can be accessed externally through the porch and connects the kitchen and utility. The neatly appointed kitchen boasts views of the delightful front garden and is fitted with a range of matching storage units along with a double bowl sink, an integrated double oven, an electric hob with extractor and space for a fridge/freezer. The utility room features a butler sink along with a WC and plumbing/space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Adjacent to the kitchen is the garden room, which can be either used as an additional dining space or is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the afternoon sun. Completing the ground floor accommodation is one of the five bedrooms and the family bathroom that comprises a bath, a pedestal wash basin and a WC.


Navigating upstairs, you will find the four remaining bedrooms, which include the master bedroom suite that can be accessed via its own hallway and includes a comfortable-sized double bedroom along with a generous-sized ensuite bathroom and a walk-in airing cupboard that could be used for additional wardrobe space. Bedroom 2 is another comfortable-sized double bedroom that benefits from built-in wardrobe space and an ensuite shower room. Bedrooms 3 & 4 are currently configured as separate bedrooms, but bedroom 4, could also be utilised as a dressing room if required to create one large double bedroom with ensuite and dressing room.


OUTSIDE

The home is accessed through a gated entrance and approached over a shingle driveway, which provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The property occupies a generous-sized plot with well-tended front and rear gardens, which are both laid mainly to lawn with a range of attractive trees, plants and bushes, creating fantastic spaces to relax or entertain family and friends. The property also features two garages, one integral to the house and the other located at the end of the garden, along with an attached workshop. This large outbuilding at the end of the garden is two storeys and has great potential to be converted into additional accommodation if required. Also at the end of the garden is an additional parcel of land, which is approximately 0.25 acres and again laid to lawn.


LOCATION

Full profileProperty listings
Laura Robinson and Ross Nicholas are founders and directors of The Norfolk Agents, both of whom are very experienced estate agents with a wealth of knowledge, having both worked and lived in Norfolk for a number of years. Having experienced the changing landscape of local estate agents, Laura and Ross identified a gap in the market to create a hybrid agency in Norfolk combining the best of both Online and Traditional High Street estate agency. In January 2020 Shane Ballard joined the business as the third director bringing more than 15 years experience to our growing business. Shane has previously held director roles at the award winning Greene and Co working under the stewardship of industry heavyweight David Pollock and latterly as Retail Director of Mid – Market London for Countrywide incorporating brands such as Bairstow Eves, Gascoigne Pees and Greene and Co. On Shanes return to Norfolk and before joining The Norfolk Agents he continued as Regional Director for Countrywide looking after 15 offices across Norfolk. All three directors are really passionate about our business model and believe that our proposition is one that delivers both on value and service compared to the High Street. Since the business was formed it has continued to grow and win friends across Norfolk, saving our customers in excess of £1,000,000 in fees. We do not have or believe in expensive High Street offices and believe that our model is proven to be the most cost-efficient way to provide fantastic service and deliver significant value to our customers.
