Description

The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Bumblebee Cottage, a beautifully presented brick-and-flint family home, occupying a generous corner plot within the highly sought-after village of Gayton. Ideally positioned in the heart of West Norfolk, the property enjoys easy access to the market town of King's Lynn, the stunning North Norfolk coastline and the Royal Sandringham Estate, making it perfectly suited as either a full-time residence or an idyllic countryside retreat. Constructed in 2018 and lovingly maintained by its original owners as a private holiday home, Bumblebee Cottage combines the character and charm of a traditional Norfolk home with the comfort and efficiency of modern living. Throughout their ownership, a number of thoughtful enhancements have been made, including the installation of air conditioning to the principal bedroom and elegant plantation shutters to all bedroom windows.

The accommodation is both stylish and practical, extending to three generously proportioned double bedrooms, spacious living areas and beautifully landscaped gardens. Additional highlights include solid oak internal doors, ceramic tiled flooring with underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, an energy-efficient air source heat pump, a comprehensive range of integrated kitchen appliances with granite worktops, and a charming wood-burning stove creating a focal point within the sitting room.

For those seeking a straightforward move, we are pleased to confirm that the property is offered with no onward chain.

ACCOMODATION
An attractive oak-framed entrance porch welcomes visitors into a spacious and inviting reception hall, setting the tone for the quality found throughout the home. From here, there is access to the cloakroom, a useful understairs storage area and the staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room is a wonderfully comfortable space. At its heart, a wood-burning stove sits within an attractive brick fireplace, creating a warm and cosy atmosphere during the cooler months.

To the rear of the property, the layout opens into a superb open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, designed to provide a sociable hub for everyday family life and entertaining alike. The well-appointed kitchen features an extensive range of fitted cabinetry beneath granite work surfaces, complemented by a solid oak breakfast bar and an excellent selection of integrated appliances, including a full-height fridge, full-height freezer, dishwasher, oven, hob, wine cooler, twin-bowl sink and pull-out larder unit. The adjoining dining and seating areas offer flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles, while double doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. A separate utility room provides additional storage, space and plumbing for laundry appliances, together with a convenient side entrance.

The first-floor landing is bright and spacious, leading to three impressive double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a full wall of fitted wardrobes and the added luxury of air conditioning, ensuring year-round comfort. Bedrooms two and three are also generous doubles, with the second bedroom incorporating a large built-in airing cupboard. Serving all three bedrooms is a stylishly refurbished family shower room, beautifully finished with a contemporary 1400mm walk-in shower enclosure, vanity wash basin, WC and heated towel rail.

OUTSIDE
Bumblebee Cottage occupies an enviable corner position with attractive gardens extending to both the side and rear of the property. The front garden creates an appealing first impression, while a block-paved driveway to the rear provides off-road parking for two vehicles and leads to the detached double garage. The enclosed rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped and enjoys a high degree of privacy. A neatly maintained lawn is complemented by colourful planted borders, a charming wildlife pond and a paved terrace, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The garden continues to the side of the property, offering additional outdoor space and access to the front via a gated pathway.

The substantial brick-built double garage is equipped with power, lighting and a remotely operated electric door, providing excellent storage, workshop potential or secure parking.

About The Norfolk Agents, Dersingham

7b Hunstanton Road, Dersingham, PE31 6HH

The Norfolk Agents are proud to be called a local estate agents for North, South, East, West and Mid Norfolk.

We know Norfolk intimately and can provide first class local knowledge with market leading fees. Your property will be marketed on our new website, the Rightmove portal and across our vast social media pages. We are very friendly and experienced estate agents whose main aim is to make your house sale / move in Norfolk as stress free and cost effective as possible.

We do this by combining the best attributes of pure online estate agents with those we learnt from working in high street agents for many years.

At The Norfolk Agents we believe vendors shouldn't be expected to pay the inflated fees most High Street agencies charge, but that both vendors and buyers alike also deserve to receive a better service than national online agencies currently offer.

The Norfolk Agents combine the best of both worlds, to provide a cost effective fees package that you can control, backed up by high quality marketing and first class customer service, all provided by our truly local friendly and experienced team.
