Property description

South Cottage is a detached brick and flint cottage, quietly tucked away in a peaceful and private setting in the heart of the popular coastal village of Weybourne.Reached only on foot via a quiet private loke, the approach to the cottage is as charming as the home itself. With the gentle flow of the village beck running alongside and birdsong filling the air, the setting immediately evokes a sense of calm and timelessness. It feels like a world away, yet you’re just moments from the village pub, shop, and shingle beach.Used as a coastal retreat for nearly 40 years, the cottage has been extended to the rear to create a more spacious and practical layout, while carefully retaining much of its original warmth and character. The ground floor includes two cosy reception rooms, perfect for relaxing after a coastal walk, a utility area, and a ground floor WC for added convenience. Upstairs are two comfortable bedrooms and a bathroom, offering flexible accommodation for full-time living, a second home, or a holiday let, (subject to EPC)Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight - generous, private and bathed in sunlight throughout the day. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning coffee, pottering among the flower beds, or dining outdoors on a summer evening, it’s a tranquil space to unwind and connect with nature.Full of charm and history, South Cottage offers a rare opportunity to embrace coastal village life at its most peaceful and picturesque, with the Norfolk Coast Path and unspoilt shoreline right on your doorstep.WEYBOURNE
Just three miles west of Sheringham, Weybourne is familiar to many as a stop on The Poppy Line steam railway, which is a magnificent way to arrive at this unspoilt coastal village. You might spot pretty Weybourne Windmill as you ride the line, which local legend says once signalled to smugglers with the turn of its sails whether the coast was clear to land.The mill was later home to Mr and Mrs Dodds who were arrested as spies during World War II, after police spotted the couple using the windmill to signal out to sea and discovered a radio transmitter. East Anglia’s proximity to Europe meant it played a key role in the war effort and a secret World War II military site to the left of the village, Weybourne Camp, which was visited by Churchill is now home to the Muckleburgh Collection, one of the UK’s largest privately owned displays of guns and military vehicles.Following Station Road, turn into Church Street where the medieval All Saints Church sits, and behind it Weybourne Priory, once home to Augustine monks. Further along is The Ship Inn, a traditional village pub which has been serving locals since the 1800s. Enjoy one of its wide selection of local ales and artisan gins as you enjoy seafood freshly caught just footsteps away. If you follow Beach Lane down to the coastline, you might see the boats which fish the waters for their catch.Take the coastal path west towards pretty Cley and Salthouse Marshes or head east back to Sheringham. Surrounded by fields, woodland and heathland in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with its village shop, tea room, many traditional cottages and period homes this is a wonderful place to call home.SERVICES CONNECTED
