Sheringham

Location Sheringham is a charming North Norfolk coastal town surrounded by some of Norfolk's finest countryside. The town centre high street has a healthy number of independent shops serving every day needs together with a Tesco supermarket, primary and secondary schooling to include a sixth form together with a busy theatre and library, modern health centre, dentist and 18 hole clifftop golf course, together with regular bus and rail services to the city of Norwich and other nearby towns. There are also some beautiful coastal and woodland walks in the are and the town plays host to several festivals throughout the year. 

Description Constructed in 1912 for the Reverend GTW Trendell and designed by local architect RW Featherstone (the original architects drawing hangs in the hall) this delightful semi-detached period house standing on a corner plot, is arranged over three floors and as will be noted form our photographs, has numerous period features influenced by the Arts and Crafts period. This is particularly evident in the superb reception hall with its central fireplace and symmetrical corner alcove pews, beamed ceiling and plate rack. This is perhaps where the Reverend Trendell met with his parishioners if calling on him.

On the ground floor, there is an impressive and comfortable sitting room with feature bay window and fireplace with wood burning stove, superb formal dining room with a feature semi-circular bay window and fireplace, attractively fitted kitchen with archway to a particularly bright and airy breakfast/family room with patio doors to both the beautiful front garden and a sunny paved courtyard garden at the rear, ideal for breakfast or your morning coffee. A spacious study/home office and cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. The five double bedrooms are arranged over two floors with the principal having a very generous en-suite bathroom and the remaining bedrooms sharing a family shower room.

The beautiful, well stocked cottage gardens are a real feature of the property and the corner position takes full advantage of the south and westerly aspect and offers a surprising amount of privacy and seclusion. There is parking for a small car within the gardens, plus unrestricted availability on road, but the real benefit of Aysgarth is the short walk to both Sheringham town centre and the beach.
