Property description & features

  • Substantial Four Bedroom Home
  • Elevated Position & Stunning Countryside Views
  • Abundance of Living Space
  • Four Bedrooms
  • Flexible Accommodation with Potential for Annexe
  • Almost 3/4 of An Acre of Secured Gardens (STS)
  • Potential to Extend Property (STPP)
  • Popular North Norfolk Village Location
Perfectly positioned on the southern edge of this increasingly popular North Norfolk village and with far reaching views over the countryside, Well Cottage is a substantial four bedroom property that is now in need of some updating. The main house was built in the early 1970s and was constructed to take maximum advantage of its elevated position and the stunning views. More recently the house was extended on the ground floor to provide office space consisting of two rooms with a separate access and was then used to run an accountancy business from. As such there is an absolute abundance of living space on the ground floor that offers a great deal of flexibility for a granny annexe or separate guest accommodation that could provide a modest income as a holiday let. The house sits in almost three quarters of an acre (STMS) of secured gardens, and whilst it has clearly been lovingly maintained, it is now a little dated but, subject to the usual consents, there is obvious potential to enlarge and take full advantage of such a generous plot. The garden has dog secure fencing around its entire perimeter.
 

GREAT BIRCHAM Norfolk coast and comprises of three parishes:- Great Bircham, Bircham Tofts and Bircham Newton. Great Bircham has a good farm shop with deli, a church, St Mary's and the Kings Head Hotel with award winning restaurant. There is also a fully restored windmill, considered to be the only working windmill in this part of the county, where visitors can climb five floors up to the fan stage and on windy days, can see the sails and milling machinery turning and admire the view. The mill also has a bakery, tea room, gift shop, small children's farm and cycle hire centre. Bircham Newton has a small, private trout fishing lake and the Church of All Saints, one of the smallest in the county, with no porch, few windows and Victorian box pews. Nelson's daughter Horatia married Philip Ward, who was the rector and brought up a large family at Church Farm. Bircham Tofts is recorded in the Domesday book as Stoftstan, referring to its stony soil and merged with Bircham Newton in 1719. The closest train station is at King's Lynn providing direct rail links to Cambridge and London King's Cross.

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

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 18, 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
