Brancaster Staithe

Having remained in the same family for over 5 decades, this will be the first time Number 22 has been on the market for over half a century.

The ground floor is primarily dedicated to a spacious reception and dining room, extending from the front to the rear of the house. A bay window on the southern end floods the space with natural light, while a sliding serving hatch connects the dining area to the kitchen at the opposite end. The kitchen pays tribute to its original era, maintaining its authentic wallpaper and tiles, which have circled back into fashion once more.

The first floor comprises three bedrooms: two spacious doubles and a sizable single, all sharing the family bathroom located on this level. From the upstairs, one can enjoy the view overlooking the Staithe, allowing for a clear view of the incoming tide, signalling the opportune moment to embark on the boat.

Outside and to the front, there's room for off-street parking for two cars, while at the back, the garden is paved and fully enclosed. Adjacent to the house is a single garage, originally built to accommodate slightly smaller vehicles but still offering ample storage space for a boat, kayaks, windsurfs, and bicycles. Additionally, its end-of-terrace positioning presents evident potential. Whether you opt to maintain the garage storage or convert it into extra living space on the ground floor, it's easily feasible to construct a fourth bedroom with an en-suite above (STPP).

Throughout its original layout, the house stands as a testament to the care and affection showered upon it by successive generations of the family over the past fifty years. Its pristine condition reflects the deep love it has received. Situated close to the sea, the family has relished the breathtaking sunsets during summer evenings, the sight of geese flocking overhead each winter, coastal strolls, and the warm ambiance of the two nearby village pubs. 22 The Close has been a sanctuary for cherished memories, but the time has come for a new family to begin crafting their own.
