About this property

Nestled in the tranquil village of Little Snoring just 5 miles from the Norfolk Coast aonb, this idyllic retreat is ideally situated in the heart of the countryside. Perfect for families or groups of friends, the cosy open-plan living space is warmed by a crackling wood burner, with a tranquil lawned garden and rear courtyard awaiting outside.

This welcoming hideaway combines contemporary styling with characterful exposed beams and plenty of natural light. Upon entering, a hallway leads to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where two sets of French doors create a connection with the landscaped courtyard. The well-equipped kitchen is ready for preparing delicious meals, and the sleek dining table invites you to enjoy sociable meals. After dinner, the inviting lounge provides the perfect space to unwind on sumptuous sofas. A utility room and a separate cloakroom complete the ground floor. At the end of the day, three stylish bedrooms offer a tranquil upstairs retreat. The master bedroom features a king-size bed and en-suite shower room, while the second king-size room and the twin bedroom share a well-equipped family bathroom. Outside, the front of the property boasts a lawned area with garden furniture, providing a safe space for children to play. At the rear, the secluded courtyard offers a perfect setting for al fresco dining.

The village itself boasts a pub, a shop, and a post office, all within a few hundred metres of your door. For a touch of Georgian charm, visit the nearby town of Holt (10 miles), known for its art galleries and antique shops, along with various dining options. The village of Thursford (4 miles) showcases a magnificent collection of steam engines and organs, and it's the place to discover new Christmas traditions at the Thursford Christmas Spectacular. The market town of Fakenham (3 miles) provides all your everyday needs, and you can also try your luck at Fakenham Racecourse.
