Recently Improved Grade II Listed Home with Sea Views in Hunstanton

Occupying a prominent position on the approach into Old Hunstanton, The Corner House almost marks the transition between Hunstanton and the old village beyond. Its handsome Georgian façade and refined proportions convey a sense of permanence and stature, just moments from one of Norfolk’s most admired coastlines.

The house itself has recently undergone a programme of improvement by the current owner, carefully restoring clarity, balance and character back into the property whilst respecting its historic integrity. The result is a home that now feels lighter, more coherent and ready for the next chapter, offering an exceptional opportunity for a buyer to further refine and personalise the interiors.

The accommodation extends over four storeys and offers a flexibility that will appeal to a variety of buyers, whether as a principal residence, coastal retreat or multi-generational family home. Reception spaces feel balanced and sociable, whilst the upper floors provide generous bedroom accommodation and elevated outlooks towards the surrounding coastline and open skies beyond. An elegant framework upon which a future custodian may continue to enhance and evolve the interiors over time.

Externally, The Corner House is approached via a shared carriage driveway, reinforcing the sense of arrival befitting a home of its standing. To the rear, the terrace and garden provide a sheltered setting for outside dining and entertaining, with the coastal light and sea air very much part of everyday life here.

Old Hunstanton itself remains one of the most desirable coastal villages in Norfolk, admired for its quieter character, sandy beaches, dunes, golf course and historic village setting, distinct from the larger Victorian resort nearby. The Corner House offers the opportunity to become part of a uniquely special stretch of the North Norfolk coastline.

OLD HUNSTANTON
Old Hunstanton is a highly regarded coastal village on the North Norfolk coast, known for its distinctive striped cliffs, wide sandy beach and unspoilt coastal landscape. It offers an appealing mix of character homes, converted properties and contemporary coastal residences, all set within easy reach of the shoreline and countryside walks.

One of the village’s most recognisable landmarks is the Grade I listed ruins of St Edmund’s Chapel, dating back to the 13th century, which sits close to the cliff edge and overlooks the coastline. Nearby, the iconic Hunstanton Lighthouse continues to guide vessels along this stretch of the Wash, adding to the village’s historic maritime character.

Old Hunstanton Golf Club provides a traditional links course highly regarded for its coastal setting, while nearby Royal West Norfolk Golf Club offers another prestigious championship links course set against the dramatic backdrop of the marshes and shoreline.

For dining and hospitality, the village offers a strong selection including The Lodge, The Ancient Mariner and The Neptune, the latter being a Michelin-starred restaurant widely recognised for its fine dining and seasonal menus. A village store and craft centre provide everyday essentials and independent shopping, while additional amenities can be found in nearby Hunstanton.

The coastline itself is a major attraction, with long stretches of golden sand, beach huts and dunes leading into the Wash. The area is particularly known for its sunsets over the sea, attracting visitors year-round. The coastal path offers extensive walking routes, with opportunities to explore neighbouring villages such as Holme-next-the-Sea, Thornham and Brancaster.

Old Hunstanton is also well served by the Coasthopper bus route, providing convenient coastal connections between local villages and towns along North Norfolk’s shoreline.
