From the moment you arrive, the sense of calm and natural flow throughout the property is unmistakable.

Designed with thoughtful separation between living and sleeping areas, Furrows offers a layout ideal for modern living. The bedroom wing comprises three generous bedrooms, including a principal suite with its own en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms share a stylish family shower room, while a separate guest WC adds further convenience.

On the opposite side of the home, the living and entertaining spaces have a welcoming, semi open-plan layout that’s as practical as it is inviting. The heart of the home is a spacious kitchen-dining room, ideal for gatherings and casual family meals, which flows effortlessly into a light-filled sitting room. A striking south-west-facing bay window bathes this space in afternoon sunshine, while a central log burner adds warmth and ambiance for cosy evenings in.

French doors from the dining area open directly onto a south-facing patio – a perfect suntrap for long summer evenings, dining al fresco, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy this setting offers.

Beyond the house itself, Furrows offers excellent lifestyle amenities including generous off-street parking and a separate, brick-built double garage – an ideal home for all your coastal adventure kit, from boats and kayaks to bicycles and paddleboards.

All this sits just moments from the heart of Thornham, a sought-after village renowned for its gastropubs, thriving community, coastal walks, and easy access to the wide sandy beaches of the North Norfolk coast.

Whether you’re seeking a full-time residence or a weekend retreat, Furrows offers an exceptional opportunity to embrace the best of Norfolk coastal living in comfort and style.

THORNHAM
Thornham may just be the quintessential Norfolk coastal bolthole. With plenty of brick and flint cottages and larger period homes just a short walk from the water’s edge and nature reserve, dig a little deeper and you’ll also discover it is a fantastic foodie hotspot with a clutch of award winning pubs and eateries, along with a boutique retail park. Once a largely forgotten village on the run between Hunstanton and Burnham Market, over the past decade Thornham has evolved into a chic stop.

Historically a centre of trade and seafaring, the village was used by the Romans and saw fierce conflict between smugglers over the centuries until the harbour silted up in the early 20th century. Many of the traditional fishermen’s cottages have been gentrified with a soft palette and contemporary coastal style and life now moves at a calmer pace.

Start the day with a slow brunch at Thornham Deli before picking up some nibbles at the food counter or browsing its quirky lifestyle store. Then, continue your retail therapy a little further along the coast road at Drove Orchards, which seems to have something fresh each season. Or take it easy and fill your basket at the Farm Shop – with a small meat counter, deli, bakery and pantry selection, plus a satellite of Gurneys Fish Shop next door, dinner’s sorted. Open Sky Cycles can also be found here, offering bike hire, making this a great base to leave the car and explore.

Drove Orchards is also home to the original, award winning Eric’s Fish & Chips and Eric’s Pizza, located in a neighbouring Yurt, where traditional dishes have been given a contemporary spin. But if you are looking for good pub grub, head to The Lifeboat Inn or The Orange Tree – both located within this small but prominent village. Whilst some stumble upon Thornham by accident while touring the coastline, there are many who have decided to make it a place to call home.
