Description

With delightful, free-flowing living and entertaining space on the ground floor and well-balanced accommodation on the first floor, this is the perfect family home.

Set within a peaceful location on the southern edge of the town and positioned on the southern side of the road, this is a house filled with natural light.

On the ground floor, the living space is perfectly arranged for modern living. To the front, there is a generous living room that flows through to the dining room, which is then connected to the kitchen. The dining room can also be closed off from these two rooms and, as such, can double up as a home office. Next to the kitchen is a very useful utility and laundry room, leading through to the large conservatory at the back, with views over and access out to the garden beyond.

Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room, while the remaining three share the large family bathroom.

Outside, to the front, there is paved off-street parking and, in addition, a good-sized integrated garage. To the rear, the garden is completely enclosed - perfect for letting the two- and four-legged little ones run off some steam in complete safety. What is particularly lovely about the garden is that it backs onto Pensthorpe Nature Reserve, offering not only a pretty countryside outlook, unusual for a town setting, but also the certainty that the view will never be spoilt or developed.

Number 56 has recently been refurbished to a high standard throughout, with a contemporary kitchen and modern bathrooms, making it the perfect home to move straight into.

About Sowerbys, Burnham Market

Our home in Burnham Market

Nestled in the heart of Norfolk's much-loved Georgian village, Burnham Market is where our story began.

Where it all began

More than 30 years ago, Max Sowerby founded Sowerbys right here. Back then it was just him, his trusty four-legged companion and an old computer.

Meet the team

Today, Karen Lewis-Mitchell manages our Burnham branch - a team with more than 70 years of combined industry experience.

Our place on the green

You'll find us among a wealth of local businesses surrounding the quintessential village green, in a picture-perfect Georgian double-fronted store.

A building with history

Formerly known as White Cottage, the building has served its community in many ways. In the mid-19th century it was a grocer and tallow chandler. The Roy family traded here from the early 1900s until 1971, selling everything from groceries to shoes and haberdashery. For almost 30 years it was home to the local newsagents, until 2001 when Max Sowerby moved the team in.
