Location

Brick Kiln Lane is a small rural lane in the Norfolk village of Suffield, a peaceful setting surrounded by farmland but well placed for access to local amenities. Day-to-day shopping, supermarkets and a wide choice of services are found in North Walsham, around 10 minutes by car, which also has both primary schools and North Walsham High School. Smaller primaries, such as Colby Primary, are closer to hand in the surrounding villages. Healthcare is similarly centred in North Walsham, with GP surgeries, a community hospital and dental practices, while Cromer Hospital provides additional services a short drive toward the coast.

Transport connections are convenient for a rural lane: North Walsham railway station on the Norwich–Cromer–Sheringham Bittern Line offers regular services into the city and to the coast, and the nearby A140 and A149 roads provide straightforward driving routes. For leisure, the lane is well placed for both countryside and coast. The celebrated Gunton Arms pub, with its extensive parkland setting, lies just a few miles away, as does the historic Gunton Park Sawmill, a rare working water-powered sawmill. The beaches at Cromer, Mundesley and the wider North Norfolk coast are all within 15 minutes’ drive, making the location ideal for both practical living and access to the area’s highlights.

At the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and dining room, designed in a farmhouse style that blends charm with functionality. Here, quality cabinetry, granite worktops, and a traditional Aga cooker set the tone for relaxed country living.

The grand sitting room is a showpiece, centred around a brick-built fireplace with an inset wood burner, casting warmth across the space. Floor-to-ceiling windows and French doors allow natural light to flood in and frame views of the garden, creating a room that feels both cosy and expansive—a true gathering spot for family and friends.

Upstairs, four bedrooms offer comfort and privacy. One benefits from a built-in wardrobe, while others are bathed in natural light from large skylights, creating bright and restful spaces.

Exposed beams and stylish tiling finish the room with rustic sophistication.
