SUMMARY This enchanting Grade II Listed detached cottage has been owned by the same family for over 30 years, but is now available to purchase, with no onward chain. Honeysuckle Cottage offers a tranquil setting, just a short stroll from the Quay and benefits from off-road parking, making it a true gem, in a sought-after coastal location.
GROUND FLOOR The property originally comprised a pair of fishermen's cottages, dating from the early 1800's, which have subsequently been thoughtfully combined to create a generous, character home.
There are three doors providing access to the cottage, however the main entrance has traditionally been at the rear, leading directly into the charming kitchen, complete with a gas-fired AGA - a quintessential feature of the home. The kitchen is perfectly suited to those who wish to prepare a quick bite, having returned from savouring the delights of the Norfolk Coast, with ample worktop space and storage.
The property offers two reception rooms, both benefiting from large south-facing windows that create a bright and airy feel and the reception room located at the western end of the house features a working open fireplace, bringing a warm and welcoming ambience to cooler evenings.
A shower room completes the ground floor.
FIRST FLOOR There are two well-apportioned double bedrooms, both with the added convenience of an en-suite WC - ideal for hosting guests, or creating comfortable and private retreats.
OUTSIDE The outdoor space is compact, yet charming, and is presented with colourful and character features. A gravelled driveway provides off-road parking for one vehicle - a sought after benefit in this area. In addition, there is a separate courtyard style garden, neatly paved and bordered by flower beds and potted plants, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy a morning coffee, or a glass of something chilled on a warm summer day.
LOCATION Wells-next-the-Sea is one of the prettiest towns on the North Norfolk Coast. Once a busy commercial port, trading between the 16th - 20th centuries and now a popular seaside resort for holidaymakers. Almost the entire 50 mile stretch of coastline from Snettisham in the west to Mundesley in the east is designated as an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Wells is perfectly located as a base from which to explore this.
From the sweeping sandy beach bordered by pinewoods and colourful beach huts, to the bustling harbour where you'll find children crabbing on the quay opposite the finest fish & chips, to the pretty tree-lined green known as The Buttlands with its warm and welcoming taverns – Wells is the perfect, family friendly seaside destination.
There are plenty of amenities including schools, a doctor's surgery, dentist, churches, library, convenience stores, pubs, restaurants and interesting independent boutiques and galleries. The Maltings also provides a venue for art, theatre and cinema. The vibrant community schedule year-round events that help keep this seaside town one of the most desirable places in Norfolk to live.
