Enchanting Countryside Cottage in Bacton

Grange Cottage is a truly wonderful Grade II listed property, steeped in history and overflowing with character. Originally one substantial home, it is now arranged as two individual cottages, offering exceptional flexibility. Whether you are seeking multi-generational living, an income-producing opportunity, or the chance to restore it to one impressive family home (subject to the necessary consents), the possibilities are plentiful.

Both cottages are full of period features, including impressive inglenook fireplaces, exposed wall and ceiling timbers, areas of exposed brick and flint, and beautiful stained glass windows, all combining to create homes of immense charm.

Outside, the cottages are surrounded by enchanting cottage-style gardens with mature planting, lawned areas, a walled garden, ample parking, a small woodland, a traditional outbuilding and two surviving pill boxes, reflecting the property’s fascinating wartime history.

1 Grange Cottage, positioned to the left, offers a welcoming sitting room, kitchen, hallway and delightful garden room. The first floor provides three bedrooms and a shower room, while the top floor features a further vaulted bedroom, cloakroom and useful attic storage.

2 Grange Cottage, to the right, comprises an entrance porch, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, bathroom, utility room, pantry, dining room and a ground-floor bedroom with en suite. The first floor serves three further bedrooms and a cloakroom, whilst the top floor offers an additional vaulted bedroom.

Life in Bacton revolves around its wide sandy beach, ideal for long walks along the Norfolk Coast Path and the Paston Way, both popular with walkers, runners and dog owners alike. The village centre supports a genuine sense of community with a village shop serving daily essentials, a traditional pub, cafés such as The Tea Shed and Café Carmel, a fish and chip shop and takeaway choices, all within easy reach on Coast Road and Walcott Road.
