Description

A Victorian Cottage, requiring refurbishment, overlooking the Burn Valley in this favoured North Norfolk village. Glebe Cottage, forming part of the surrounding Holkham Estate, is a charming semi-detached Victorian cottage nestled on the edge of the River Burn valley, with the river running in full sight of the cottage. This is a cottage with exceptional potential. An increasingly rare proposition in an area where most cottages or houses have already been subject to transformation, Glebe Cottage is essentially a blank canvas for the next custodian to renovate to their own specification and vision. Given the age of the cottage, the rooms are generous in size with tall ceilings and Victorian sash windows, helping to create a spacious and light feel. This is most evident in the dining room, which is dual aspect and complete with fireplace and original cupboards, and a sitting room with alcove shelving and cabinets, and fireplace. The functional kitchen is again dual aspect, generous in size and a good square room to design a kitchen for. A boot/utility area is beside the kitchen, which could be incorporated into the kitchen or provide a separate room ideal for returning from muddy countryside walks, or salty sailing. The first floor hosts three bedrooms, with two double bedrooms and a single bedroom. The principal bedroom will be lovely, with a window to both the east for morning sun, and west for the sunset. All bedrooms have their own wardrobes. Crucially, there is a first floor bathroom. The cottage is now in need of complete renovation, to make the most of the sizes of rooms and natural light, not to mention the setting looking out over the river. Gardens The gardens and grounds to Glebe Cottage are to the west, so ideally positioned with an open south and west aspect. The grounds currently host an array of sheds/outbuildings, forming a courtyard, with the boundary to the south and west marked by brick and flint walls. Much like the house, the gardens are a brilliant opportunity to clear and redesign. Given the light the gardens enjoy, it will be a glorious area to make use of and landscape. There is space to create private off street parking and boat storage, with space leftover to create a garden to personal tastes. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
