Paston Road, Paston

Heath Farm Cottage is the kind of home that instantly invites you to slow down and soak it all in—set on a one-acre plot (stms) with wide-open skies and rolling fields as your daily backdrop. With its brick and flint charm, sweeping driveway and beautifully converted interiors, it’s a countryside sanctuary where space, style and serenity come together. From the luxurious main home to the versatile self-contained annex, there’s room for multi-generational living, holiday letting, or simply spreading out in comfort. Days here are filled with outdoor lunches in the sun, evenings in the sitting room by the log burner, and weekend strolls to the coast or local farm shops. Solar panels and thoughtful design choices reflect a lifestyle that values sustainability as much as it does beauty. Whether you're hosting guests, raising a family, or carving out your own creative escape, this is North Norfolk living at its most rewarding.

The Location

Set along one of North Norfolk’s most scenic stretches, Paston is a peaceful village that perfectly captures the charm of coastal countryside living. With the golden beaches of Mundesley just moments away and the lively seaside atmosphere of Cromer less than half an hour’s drive, there’s always something to explore — from fish and chips on the promenade to cliff-top walks and seal spotting along the coast. Families will find plenty to keep all ages entertained, whether it’s crabbing on the quayside, cycling quiet country lanes, or day trips to local attractions and wildlife parks dotted across the region.

For everyday ease, North Walsham is close at hand with its schools, supermarkets, cafés and train station offering straightforward links into Norwich and out to the coast. The village itself sits along the coast road, making spontaneous outings to beachside villages, local pubs or scenic picnic spots a simple pleasure.

And for those who dream of not just living the lifestyle but sharing it too, the property’s self-contained holiday let offers the perfect chance to welcome guests looking to experience everything this area has to offer — from coastal calm to countryside charm. Whether you’re soaking up summer in the garden or offering others a taste of Norfolk at its best, Paston promises a setting that’s as inviting as it is rewarding.

Heath Farm Cottage, Paston

Approached via a long, private driveway that gently unfolds towards an elegant façade of brick and flint, this exceptional converted cottage barn radiates timeless character and rural refinement from the outset. Set on an expansive one-acre plot (STMS), the property stands proudly in an enviable and truly idyllic position.

With panoramic field views stretching as far as the eye can see, this is the kind of lifestyle opportunity rarely presented—where luxury, privacy and open countryside coexist seamlessly. Measuring over 3,100 sqft in total, the home offers a layout that flows with an ease and generosity often hard to find, ideal for those looking to embrace space both inside and out.

Step through the front door and you’re greeted by an inviting entrance hall that branches effortlessly—one way guiding you towards the elegant living quarters, the other to the home’s expansive entertaining and day-to-day spaces. At the heart of the home lies a handcrafted kitchen and dining area, designed for both showstopping dinner parties and family mornings. Granite worktops catch the natural light that streams through Velux windows and patio doors, while a peture finish, central island and Belfast sink complete the luxe feel.

Step outside from here and you’re on a patio made for long lunches with nothing but birdsong and sweeping vistas around you—true escapism made real. A tucked-away utility room provides all the practicality you need without ever compromising on style.

The main sitting room is light-filled yet grounded in comfort, centred around a log burner and offering access through patio doors into a charming courtyard—another pocket of outdoor bliss. From here, two further reception rooms extend the flexibility of the layout: a peaceful office for those remote work moments, and a snug perfect for winding down with a book or hosting guests.

Moving through to the main living quarters, the principal residence offers three large bedrooms, two beautifully appointed bathrooms (one with a freestanding tub), and an easy, flowing layout that promotes comfort and function in equal measure.

The Annex (Garden Cottage)

Attached yet entirely self-contained, the annex is a revelation of potential. With its own private entrance, this multi-level space features an entrance hallway, lounge, full kitchen, bathroom and two additional bedrooms. Whether used as independent accommodation for family, a holiday let, or an income-generating space, it adds an exciting layer of flexibility to the home’s already generous offering.

For those seeking additional possibilities, there is also the option to separate the annex and main home into two individual titles rather than the single one currently in place—further expanding the scope of what this unique property can offer.

Potential for seven bedrooms in total across both parts of the property, all under one sprawling roof—this is countryside living reimagined.

Take a look outside…

Outside, the grounds invite you to fully embrace the lifestyle on offer, blending natural charm with thoughtful design. The courtyard is ideal for sun-soaked lunches and relaxed evening get-togethers, offering a seamless extension of indoor living.

From this vantage point, the home’s eco-conscious elements are proudly on display—the rooftop solar panels visible against the skyline, a clear nod to sustainability without compromising style. A sweeping lawn curves gently around the residence, framed by mature trees and the soft expanse of rolling farmland, creating a setting that feels both expansive and effortlessly inviting.

A double garage adds further storage or conversion potential, opening the door for even more living space, studio ideas or creative projects. Whether you're seeking a forever family base, a lifestyle move to the country, or an investment with versatility built in—this one-of-a-kind converted barn cottage delivers on every level.
