Burnham Market

THE NORTON Generously arranged over what was once the Burnham Market village surgery, The Norton is located within a discrete yet at the same time impressive development of only four generous family homes designed and built by The Willow Group, one of North Norfolk's most established, highly regarded and professional developers.

As is always the case with The Willow Group, great care and thoughtfulness has been taken with the design, detail and aesthetic on this home. By using traditional materials this modern home blends seamlessly into its peaceful setting yet inside it incorporates every single aspect of modern day living.

Positioned as the centre piece to this discrete and very private development, and set back from Church Walk, The Norton is a beautifully finished and grand, four bedroom, brick and flint house with the perfect balance of living and entertaining space and arranged over three floors.

On entering The Norton you are immediately struck by the generosity of the space, the entrance hall with its oak staircase climbing up towards the second floor gives access to all the ground floor rooms. One of which is the ever useful boot room, located at the end of the hallway and is an ideal point of entry after a wet and muddy beach walk. Accessed from the right of the entrance hallway, and stretching the full width of the house, is the essential kitchen dining family room. Without question the kitchen is the essential feature of this room, designed and built by Kitchens Etc, the local and highly acclaimed kitchen designer, it sits central to the room, just as it should, as the hub of every home.

At the southern end of this room is the dining area, both formal in structure and yet just as easily can be informal thanks to the free flowing and social nature of this room. At the other end is the more relaxed seating area with its full width bi-folding door and lantern roof over this is an incredibly light area and perfect for summer evenings with the doors pulled back.

On the other side of the entrance hall is the more formal reception room with a bay window at one end and French doors the other it is a more intimate entertaining space. With its log burning stove this is clearly a room that becomes cosy, welcoming and warming as the days shorten and the season changes, the ideal place to snuggle down on a winter's night with a glass of wine and the comforting crackle of the fire, yet on a summers evening, open up those French doors and it links seamlessly with the other rooms of the house.

Upstairs and on the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms one of which is the principal bedroom suite. This room enjoys the full depth of the house with not only a designated dressing room area but also a substantial en-suite bathroom that incorporates a stand alone bath as well a s a shower cubicle. Up on the second floor there are two more large double bedrooms that share a shower room.

Outside The Norton has two allocated private parking spaces, essential for when this village becomes busy, and there are patio areas immediately off both the reception room and the kitchen dining room doors, whilst the remainder of the gardens are laid to lawn and easy to maintain.

 

BURNHAM MARKET
Treasured memories of family holidays, a day at the world famous horse trials or a well-earned afternoon spent browsing its pretty boutiques - there are plenty of ways to experience Burnham Market, the jewel in north Norfolk's glittering crown.

Located close to the mouth of the River Burn, believed to be the source of its name, the village has long been associated with naval hero Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived at nearby Burnham Thorpe.

A refined elegance permeates every aspect of village life, from the traditional homewares found at Uttings, the locals 'go-to' for household essentials, to sampling tasty treats at the Tuscan Farm Shop, Humble Pie Deli or Gurneys Fish Shop - this is a place to savour the finer things. Eating out is also a joy with award winning Socius serving a British-inspired tapas menu on the edge of Foundry Place, and NoTwenty9's bar, restaurant and courtyard provides a relaxed spot to wine and dine on warm summer's nights.
Fashion counts on the Champagne coast and for chic style head to Anna's boutique, make it fancy at The Hat Shop, go country at Gun Hill Clothing Company or casual at Joules or Jack Wills. For a little culture, peruse Burnham Market's art galleries - the Fairfax Gallery has been exhibiting for more than 20 years and Pococks the Artmonger has an eclectic display. For a spot of self-care, wellbeing boutique Aura 37 stocks a range of sustainable brands. Or if you have little ones in tow, don't miss a trip to Mable's - unmissable with its pretty pink frontage - where you can encourage their artistic talent with a pot painting session or treat them to a bag of traditional sweets.

It goes without saying that Burnham Market and its smaller siblings, Burnham Deepdale, Burnham Norton, Burnham Overy Staithe and Burnham Thorpe, are home to some of the finest houses on the coast. Whether your dream is a Georgian classic, a traditional cottage or a sleek, contemporary house, this is an incredible place to discover your forever home.
