Marshbanks is a spacious five-bedroom detached home in the highly desirable coastal village of Blakeney, set to take full advantage of uninterrupted marsh and harbour views. Arranged over three floors, the house offers generous principal rooms including a living room with adjoining garden/sun rooms, formal dining room, study and kitchen with utility. A large master suite with an en suite bathroom occupies the first floor, with two further doubles and two more bedrooms on the upper floor — in total approximately ten rooms and four bathrooms, suitable for a family or coastal retreat.
The property sits in formal established gardens with mature trees, multiple seating areas, an upper patio for al fresco dining and a secluded pool with summerhouse. There is a gravel driveway with turning circle, off-street parking and a garage. Practical details: freehold tenure, oil-fired central heating via boiler and radiators, mains services connected, low flood risk and excellent mobile signal — though broadband speeds are slow in the area.
Notable considerations are factual and important: the fabric includes solid brick and flint walls with assumed no cavity insulation, and heating is oil-fuelled which can be more costly and requires storage and servicing. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house dates from the mid-20th century character rebuild and may benefit from energy-efficiency improvements, general updating in places and routine maintenance to the grounds and pool.
This is a rare opportunity for someone seeking an established coastal home with expansive marshland views and substantial garden space in Blakeney. It will suit buyers prioritising location, space and character who are prepared for sensible investment in insulation, heating and cosmetic updating. Additional land is available by separate negotiation.
