Summary - Overy House, Tower Road, Burnham Overy Staithe, Norfolk PE31 8JB
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Approximately 0.62 acre plot with direct marsh and creek access
Set on about 0.62 acres with direct access onto creeks and saltmarsh, this individual brick-and-flint detached house (c.1992) delivers rare coastal seclusion and wide marshland views. The house sits well back from neighbours with extensive gardens, hardstanding for vehicles or boats, an integral double garage, workshop and an attached studio — all useful for families, creatives or anyone who needs space for boats and outdoor gear.
Internally the layout is generous across multiple storeys: a ground-floor sitting room, entrance hall with study area, ground-floor WC and shower room, with a first-floor kitchen/dining room and master suite with en suite alongside two further bedrooms. The footprint and room count (approx. 10 rooms, c.1,975 sq ft) give practical scope for flexible living, home working and hobby space.
Practical considerations: the property lies in a designated Conservation Area and is subject to restrictive covenants in favour of the Holkham Estate. The covenants limit use to a single family dwelling (no holiday let) and require prior consent for exterior alterations. Heating is by an electric boiler with two open fireplaces — something to budget for in running costs. Broadband is average; mobile coverage is generally good outdoors. Council Tax is Band G and therefore relatively expensive.
For buyers prioritising privacy, coastal access and generous grounds, this is a strong proposition. The setting and views are the primary value drivers, while the conservation designation and covenants protect the character but limit development and commercial use. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the outlook and the extent of the grounds.
