This chain-free, two-bedroom period cottage was fully refurbished in 2021 and blends character features with modern fittings. The sitting room retains an inglenook fireplace and exposed reclaimed beams, while the kitchen and shower room were renewed for immediate move-in. A garage and private off-road parking to the rear are rare extras for a property of this size.
The south-facing garden is small, private and low-maintenance, with a large paved patio and lawn. The cottage sits by the River Burn and is approached via a quaint footbridge, offering attractive country views to the front. The property is semi-detached, built before 1900, and set in a small hamlet close to Burnham Market and the north Norfolk coast.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the walls are original solid brick (no cavity insulation assumed), heating is via electric storage heaters, glazing is secondary, and the official EPC is poor (rating F). The location has a high flood risk. Council Tax band C is affordable and the property is freehold and chain free, making it straightforward to purchase for buyers who accept these trade-offs.
