Charming renovated two-bed period cottage with garden, parking and countryside views.
Chain-free two-bedroom period cottage, renovated throughout
Tucked away on a quiet lane in Sustead, this chain-free two-bedroom period cottage combines restored character with ready-to-live-in comfort. The owners have renovated throughout, leaving a cosy living room with exposed beam and wood-burning stove, two well-proportioned bedrooms and a functional kitchen and bathroom — ideal for a first home or a peaceful weekend retreat.
Outside, the small private garden and gravelled off-street parking are genuine countryside bonuses, with open views across rolling fields and a 20-minute walk to Felbrigg Park. The location is rural and tranquil yet equidistant to the coastal towns of Cromer and Sheringham for amenities and transport links.
Buyers should note a few material points. The property has an EPC rating of F, heated by an LPG boiler (bottled LPG) and drains to a shared septic tank. The cottage’s solid-brick construction likely lacks full cavity insulation, and broadband speeds in the area are very slow — all factors that may affect running costs and connectivity. These are straightforward to plan for but are important when budgeting.
Overall, this newly renovated period cottage offers character, off-street parking and countryside views without immediate refurbishment work. It will suit a buyer seeking a manageable, characterful home in a peaceful Norfolk hamlet who is comfortable with rural utilities and the energy considerations of an older solid-wall property.
