Description
The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Beach House, an impressive and individual family home, occupying beautifully maintained grounds of around an acre, in an enviable location; just a minute's walk from the beach in the picturesque coastal village of Holme-next-the-Sea. Since it was built in 1860, the property has had a mere six owners, with the current occupiers proudly calling it their home since the mid-1980's; during which time they have meticulously maintained the house and lovingly nurtured the delightful grounds. The gardens, which adjoin and directly overlook the eighth fairway of the exclusive Hunstanton Golf Course, include carefully planned areas of planting which provide colour throughout the year; as well as numerous places to sit out and enjoy the sunshine at different times of the day.
The property offers so much versatility, including a completely independent 1-bedroom cottage within the enclosed grounds, as well a range of useful outbuildings. The main house offers well-presented and practical accommodation over three storeys, with bright and well-proportioned rooms, exceptional views from the second floor and an abundance of storage built-in throughout. The annexe, known as Beach Cottage, was successfully let out for holidays and short breaks for several decades and continues to offer the opportunity to generate an additional income should it be required, as well as providing fantastic guest accommodation away from the main house.
BEACH HOUSE
Visitors are welcomed through the entrance porch into a spacious hall, where there is a large understairs storage cupboard and a door into the ground floor cloakroom. The principal reception space is the well-proportioned family sitting room, which enjoys triple aspect views over the delightful gardens. Other features include a wood burning stove and a set of bi-folding doors which open out to a veranda which extends along the western wall. The dining room is a versatile and well-proportioned reception room, with southerly views of the garden and a door into the kitchen. The kitchen comprises a collection of storage units under granite work surfaces, with an integrated oven and hob, along with a 2m x 2m larder cupboard with fitted shelving. From the kitchen there is a stable door leading out to the garden and an inner door to the adjacent utility room.
Stairs from the hall lead up to the spacious first floor landing, where there is a further array of built-in storage cupboards and another staircase which rises up to the second floor. The master bedroom suite is a delightful feature, including a neatly appointed en-suite bathroom and a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, which enjoys a pleasant view to the front. The well-proportioned bedroom area is full of natural light, with windows to the front and side, and also displays an original feature fireplace. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are also comfortable double rooms, with bedroom 2 also being equipped with a fitted desk unit, wardrobes and a window seat. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are served by a fully tiled family bathroom with a shower over the bath, a vanity unit and heated towel rail.
The second floor is comprised entirely of an impressive guest suite which enjoys the best views in the whole house, encompassing the golf course, sand dunes and across to the sea. The bedroom also has a large storage cupboard and access into the eaves. Across the landing there is a shower room with a built-in cupboard.
BEACH COTTAGE
The cottage offers great versatility to the property, whether as guest accommodation, an independent space for a family member or as a commercial holiday let, as it was successfully used by the current owner's for many years. The ground floor includes a characterful living/dining area and a well-equipped fitted kitchen, with space for appliances and a stable door to the garden. Upstairs there is a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an adjoining en-suite bathroom.
GROUNDS & OUTBUILDINGS
The property is approached through a private gate which opens onto a sweeping shingle driveway, providing parking and turning space for numerous vehicles or machinery. To the north of the house and cottage there is a complex of outbuildings, which includes an open-fronted triple cart shed with an adjoining tool store. The original brick, chalk and flint outbuildings have all been renovated and adapted to provide useful auxiliary space. These include a versatile barn with a working chimney, which has been used and enjoyed for family parties; a workshop, log store and a useful external laundry room, which is also equipped with a shower.
The gardens have been carefully nurtured over decades of careful planning, providing colour and texture throughout the year, with an underplanting of spring bulbs throughout the various beds and borders. There are also a variety of fruit trees, including apples, pears, plums and quince, as well as mulberry, fig and medlar. Within the grounds there are several seating areas, which enjoy the sun at different times throughout the day.
In March 2024, planning consent was granted to allow for the formation of a new vehicular access with associated parking, to the south of Beach House. For more information relating to the planning permission, please visit the King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Council planning portal and use the reference: 23/01926/F.
