Burnham Norton

Within sight of three of the most iconic and best known North Norfolk landmarks, this is a property that is all about location.

Treeton is a detached, two bedroom bungalow which is typical of the post-war era in that it sits central to its plot and is sensibly arranged within. It has off-street parking as well as an adjoining garage and the property is in fair but dated condition throughout.

However, this is a property that has very obvious potential to be so much more. With a plot size of approximately 0.25 acre (STMS) there is plenty of space within which one could very easily create a more substantial home (subject to planning) and, in so doing, take full advantage of being the northernmost property on Friars Lane. To the east there are the water meadows of the River Burn with a delightful view of the watermill that has stood there since 1790. Beyond this, and wonderfully silhouetted against the sky, is the windmill at Burnham Overy Staithe. Set beside the coast road and the coastal path, this is another important Georgian building that has been much admired for over 200 years, featuring in many a Norfolk oil or watercolour, although with the location of Treeton there is no need for such a painting.

Finally, to the south-west is St Margaret's Church which, with its imposing Norman round tower, has stood sentinel over the village for almost a thousand years, and provides the third historic building that can be seen from this property. To have a view of any one of these iconic north Norfolk coastal buildings is a delight, to have all three is truly special.

Treeton was a much loved home for many years, its peacefulness and tranquillity being equalled by its timeless views. 

BURNHAM NORTON Burnham Norton is a charming village known for its picturesque landscapes, historical landmarks, and serene environments.

The village is home to St. Margaret's Church, known to date back to the 13th century.
