South Creake

Forming the end of a pretty Victorian terrace, this is an absolutely charming two bedroom cottage that has the unusual bonus of both off street parking and a garage.

Whilst there is a front door to this cottage, this is not the most used entrance. Like a lot of country homes, this property is mainly entered day-to-day via the more practical back door, as the off-street parking and garage are both to the rear of the property.

Like many Victorian cottages, the majority of the ground floor is made up of the living room, which is filled with character, as well as a sense of history. The exposed beams and inglenook fireplace make the space incredibly inviting with plenty of space for a dining table as well as a seating area.

Another unusual feature for a property of this age is the standard staircase located in the sitting room, as it is quite common to feature a Norfolk Winder staircase, which can be slightly less practical for some homeowners. Upstairs presents beautiful views over the open farmland to the front of the property and features two bright and cosy bedrooms.

The garden is west facing and completely enclosed, offering a safe space for young children and pets to run around. The garden also has a side gate, ensuring easy access down the side and to the front of the property.

The home has been a haven for the current owners for many years, but now with grandchildren multiplying and growing up, the decision has been made to move on and give someone else the opportunity to enjoy this charming cottage.

SOUTH CREAKE
A very popular rural village, South Creake has a pretty village green through which the River Burn runs.

The Ostrich pub has recently undergone a huge refurbishment and now provides not only an intimate village pub but also an outstanding restaurant. There is a homegrown fruit and vegetable stall, a children's play area, tennis courts and fishing lakes.

The village has a vibrant community and the busy village hall is home to many events. South Creake is about five miles from the village of Burnham Market which is located close to the mouth of the River Burn, believed to be the source of its name, the village has long been associated with naval hero Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived at nearby Burnham Thorpe.

A refined elegance permeates every aspect of village life, from the traditional homewares found at Uttings, the locals 'go-to' for household essentials, to sampling tasty treats at the Tuscan Farm Shop, Humble Pie Deli or Gurneys Fish Shop – this is a place to savour the finer things. For amenities, Burnham Market Stores is well-stocked and The Post Office, Burnham Motors Garage - for mechanical needs - and the petrol station are all also very useful. Eating out is also a joy with award winning Socius serving a British-inspired tapas menu on the edge of Foundry Place, and NoTwenty9's bar, restaurant and courtyard provides a relaxed spot to wine and dine on warm summer's nights.

Fakenham and Wells-next-the-Sea both have primary and secondary schools.

South Creake is perfectly positioned for the beautiful north Norfolk coast.
