LOCATION

Situated overlooking a church the only noise you will hear will be the owl at night and the church bells on Sunday morning. The private drive on which it is located is off a tiny lane and the silence is usually deafening! It is a very quiet residential area and therefore the property is NOT suitable for late night parties, but is highly suited for discerning families who wish to get together in a quality residence near the sea. There are many walks, not least the walk to the beach at Overstrand which is 1 ½ miles away and Cromer which is about 2 miles away. The lovely village of Southrepps is also 2 miles away and the local pub is only ¼ mile.

Outside Features

Car park for 4 cars, enclosed small garden with seating for 12.
