" With generous and versatile accommodation, 9 The Street is a period gem with an expansive garden. Located in an idyllic village setting in the heart of north Norfolk. Making this traditional cottage a rare opportunity.

This property has come onto the market for the first time in 40 years. A much loved holiday home and country retreat, the cottage holds many fond memories of summer gatherings and winter breaks. Formerly a pair of attached cottages, they were combined to provide a deceptively spacious accommodation, ideal for large family gatherings.

Whilst it would be fair to say the cottage could benefit from a degree of modernisation, it offers highly adaptable space with the opportunity to personalise and create your very own country cottage retreat. Set over two floors and extending over 1,300 sq.ft this versatile home briefly comprises; central entrance hall, two formal receptions, kitchen dining room, separate utility boot room and a ground floor bathroom with separate WC.

Ascending to the first floor there are two double bedrooms of similar sizes and two cosier smaller bedrooms. From the principal bedroom there is a private staircase that connects to the front sitting room.

The cottage sits in established gardens approaching 1 4 acre stms . At almost 200‘ in length the rear garden provides a wonderful open space and environment with sprawling lawns peppered with a variety of trees and hedgerow boundaries.

An extensive, paved sun terrace provides the ideal location for entertaining and looks out over the garden. A line of mature trees encloses the rear boundary to provide a delightful ‘Sylvan‘ backdrop. A side access and small front courtyard leads out onto the street.

9 The Street commands a prime, semi rural setting in the pretty and peaceful village of Briningham. The village is small, discreet and is made up of a scattering of homes surrounded by glorious open countryside. An abundance of walks can be found literally at the doorstep and the area is a haven for wildlife.

BRININGHAM Briningham is a small parish in the heart of Norfolk. Originated from Anglo Saxon this village has a history that dates back. The main and oldest building is the Belle Vue tower, originally a Mill it has now been converted to a private dwelling. Saint Maurice, a church that was dedicated to the Roman Egyptian matyr is unusual due to the fact the tower is on the south side of the church.

Roughly four miles to Holt this village is in the perfect location. A strong sense of community thrives among the proud residents and local businesses of Holt, and many of the latter champion the local ‘Love Holt‘ initiative which waves the flag for the independent shops that add vibrancy to the Georgian town centre. Throughout the year, there are plenty of local events including a summer Holt Festival and 1940s Weekend, which takes over the town and ‘Poppy Line‘ heritage railway that runs between here and Sheringham.

With a traditional butcher, fishmonger and greengrocer, the town even has its own department store and food hall, Bakers and Larners, a local landmark which has been run by the same family since 1770.

The town and its surrounding yards house a collection of chic boutiques and luxe lifestyle stores to explore and fill your home and wardrobe with beautiful things linger and choose your favourite locally made fragrance at Norfolk Natural Living.

Life moves at a leisurely pace in Holt, and there are plenty of places to idle over a coffee or bite to eat. Believed to be the oldest house in town, Byfords deli and caf is a central landmark and fabulous place to stop and watch the world go by. There‘s no need to hurry home relax and enjoy country life! On the edge of town is the eponymous Gresham‘s school.

While there is an abundance of Georgian property, particularly in the streets surrounding the town centre, venture a little further and you will find leafy roads with stylish, detached 1930s family homes, plus well designed contemporary houses that blend seamlessly with their country setting. And, should you need to spread your wings a little wider, head to the heathland of Holt Country Park or Spout Hills and reconnect with nature.?
