Description
Tucked amongst rolling countryside between the Norfolk Broads and the coast, sits Sherwood Cottage, a quintessential detached flint cottage dating back to 18th Century that was once a farmhouse to a large estate. It serves as a much-loved family home in a plot of approximately 1/3 Acre (STS) and boasts a wealth of characterful rooms including multiple receptions and five/six bedrooms.
The sprawling ground floor hosts an array of flexible and characterful receptions including a classic run of farmhouse receptions which flow effortlessly from one to the other, each adding charm of their own with exposed beams, ornate fireplaces and reams of natural light. Sitting rooms, snugs, studies and family rooms can all be found amongst these delightful receptions. A quintessential farmhouse kitchen houses the AGA amongst a decorative brick surround with the stunning adjacent garden room currently which makes for an idyllic spot to gather for family meals amongst panoramic views of the gardens.
Having once been two separate cottages, the home features two separate staircases at either end of linking the first floor together which is home to five well-proportioned bedrooms and a further dressing room/nursery.
Enjoying a large plot amongst beautiful countryside, the gardens at Sherwood Cottage are every bit as charming and well presented as the house itself. Numerous terraces make the very best of the all day sunshine. An outdoor kitchen graces one such terrace, well equipped for BBQs with family and friends is a well sheltered spot amongst wisteria and the elegant elevations of the home. Vegetable patches, sprawling lawns, well stocked beds and mature trees round out a truly enchanting plot with multiple outbuildings including a thatched Folly at the bottom of the garden. There is an application pending for a cart lodge.
