Originally two cottages that have merged together at some point over the last two centuries, this is now an extremely well balanced, four double bedroom, Grade II listed cottage.The property is effectively double fronted allowing two equally proportioned rooms to the front. On one side is the sitting room with its cosy log burner set within a herringboned fireplace. The dining room has a full inglenook fireplace with bread oven and you can really sense the laughter and stories that have been told around the dining table in this room - it is impossible to say which room is more charming! Both rooms feature brick flooring, crafted from bricks fired in the local Holkham Estate kilns. Additionally, both rooms are equipped with underfloor heating. The kitchen is vaulted with exposed beams and the stable door allows a cool breeze to waft through the cottage on those balmy summer days.Another delightful feature are the two sets of stairs, one at either end of the house. All four bedrooms are doubles, with the two on the second floor having their own staircase each but with an interconnecting door, making it perfect as a children's floor. There is a sumptuous bathroom with slipper bath and shower cubicle on the first floor as well as a ground floor shower room that is perfectly placed by the back door for sluicing down after a sandy day on Brancaster Beach.To the rear there is a south facing courtyard garden that is fully enclosed, safe and a proper sun trap.Skeet Cottage has not only been a much loved home from home for the current owners but it has also proven to be a very successful holiday let, being just a couple of minutes walk from the village green, yet far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle when it is busy, makes this the ideal location for a holiday.BURNHAM MARKETTreasured memories of family holidays, a day at the world-famous horse trials, or an afternoon browsing pretty boutiques-there are many ways to experience Burnham Market, the jewel of north Norfolk.Located near the River Burn, the village is historically linked to Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived nearby in Burnham Thorpe.Refined elegance defines village life.
