5 bedroom detached house for sale

Located on the western edge of Burnham Norton, Sandpits is an incredibly private, detached house that enjoys some of the most eye-catching coastal and countryside views to be found along our beautiful North Norfolk coast.Designed and built from new by the current owners, this is a house conceived to take full advantage of its stunning location. The layout is reversed, with the accommodation on the ground floor and the main living space above. There is a front door, of course, but as with any true Norfolk home, entry is naturally via the side door, where the utility and boot room are conveniently located — the perfect place to shake off muddy coats or sand-filled sandals after a winter walk or a summer paddle.On the ground floor are four generous double bedrooms. Three share the family bathroom, while the fourth benefits from a large en-suite and bi-fold doors that open onto the sheltered patio.Taking the grand oak staircase to the first floor, you’ll be immediately struck by three things: the sense of space created by the vaulted ceiling, the abundance of natural light from the windows and bi-fold doors, and, of course, the absolutely stunning views. Who needs landscape paintings when the scenery outside rivals any work of art?The kitchen is sociable and practical, with a central island, while a log burner adds a cosy touch for those blustery winter evenings. And when summer comes, simply slide back the glass doors and let the outside in, with the large balcony beyond.The fifth double bedroom suite is also located on the upper floor, meaning that once the children or grandchildren have gone home, the house naturally transforms into single-floor living — perfect for just the two of you.Outside, there is ample off-street parking to the side, along with plenty of space to store boats over winter. The garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a sheltered patio area adjoining the ground floor suite.A much-cherished home-from-home, Sandpits is now ready for new owners to enjoy its peaceful setting, abundant wildlife and birdlife, and those breathtaking North Norfolk coastal views.BURNHAM NORTON
