Spacious family home with garden room and large landscaped plot.
Chain-free, immaculately renovated period cottage
This immaculately presented three-bedroom detached cottage in Briston blends period character with thoughtful modernisation. Enter through an oak-framed porch into the main reception room, where an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burner creates an inviting family hub. A separate dining room and a well-planned kitchen with adjoining utility make everyday life and entertaining easy. The ground-floor, modern four-piece bathroom adds practical convenience for all ages.
Outside, the large, landscaped plot offers versatile space: a gravel driveway with off-street parking, a terraced lawn with gabion walls, and a sun-trap patio beside the detached garden room — ideal for guests, a home office or playroom. A detached cart lodge provides useful covered storage or workshop space. The property is chain-free and has been sensitively updated, with double glazing fitted after 2002 and internal insulation to the solid brick walls.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, and broadband speeds are slow — common in rural locations — which may affect heavy home-working. The EPC is rated D. While the cottage has been recently renovated, its age (pre-1900) and traditional construction mean buyers should expect typical maintenance for an older home. Council Tax band C is described as affordable.
Set in an established farming community, Briston offers a strong village feel with local shops, a junior school, medical practice and pubs, while the North Norfolk coast and towns of Fakenham and Holt remain within easy reach. The house suits families seeking character, space and a calm rural lifestyle, while offering flexible outbuildings for guests or hobbies.
