This beautifully extended and recently refurbished three bedroom semi-detached cottage is perfectly positioned within walking distance of both Burnham Overy Staithe and Burnham Market. Offering generous, stylish accommodation and thoughtfully landscaped gardens, this spectacular North Norfolk home blends period charm with contemporary comforts, creating a rare and versatile opportunity in one of North Norfolk’s most desirable locations.
Lovingly updated and extended, the property now offers over 1,800 sq. ft of beautifully presented living space. In brief, the accommodation comprises three spacious double bedrooms, two reception rooms, a striking open-plan kitchen/family room, two newly fitted shower rooms, and a further occasional bedroom or home office space. Externally, the home enjoys front and rear gardens, private parking for three vehicles, and a delightful walled rear garden with paved terrace – perfect for outdoor entertaining.
From the moment you arrive, the cottage exudes charm, with a smart enclosed front lawn and attractive frontage setting the tone. A welcoming entrance hall leads through to the cosy yet spacious sitting room, complete with oak flooring and a wood-burning stove – the perfect spot to unwind in comfort.
The showstopping kitchen/family room has been cleverly designed to blend open-plan living with practicality. Boasting limestone flooring, a modern yet timeless aesthetic, and ample space for both cooking and dining, this room forms the true heart of the home. Adjacent to the kitchen is a stunning garden room with glazed doors opening directly onto the walled garden – a serene spot that floods the space with natural light.
Also on the ground floor is a beautifully finished shower room and WC, along with a separate boiler/laundry room, providing valuable storage and utility space.
Stairs lead to the first floor, where three generously sized double bedrooms await. The principal bedroom is particularly special, featuring a striking vaulted ceiling and views over the garden. All bedrooms have been decorated in calm, neutral tones and benefit from coir carpeting, creating a sense of warmth and comfort throughout.
A second, beautifully appointed shower room serves the bedrooms, while an additional landing space offers flexibility as a home office, dressing room, or occasional fourth bedroom.
Externally, this charming home continues to impress.
To the front, the garden is enclosed and laid to lawn, while a private driveway to the side provides parking for up to three vehicles.
To the rear, a thoughtfully landscaped walled garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and is mainly laid to lawn, with a generous paved terrace ideal for alfresco dining, entertaining, or simply soaking up the peaceful surroundings.

BURNHAM OVERY STAITHE
A small village on the North Norfolk Coast, Burnham Overy Staithe has a natural tidal harbour. It has a good gastro pub - The Hero and there are good walks across the marshes and long sandy beaches. It’s close to Burnham Market with all of its amenities.
Both Overy Town and Overy Staithe lie on the River Burn, and until the end of the Middle Ages trading ships were able to reach the village of Burnham Overy Town. Whenever a ship arrived a gong would be sounded at the top of Gong Lane in Burnham Overy Staithe, to alert the farm workers to unload the incoming goods.
Perhaps Burnham Overy’s most famous resident was Richard Woodget. He first went to sea in coasters plying the waters off the east coast of England. In 1885 he was appointed captain of the Cutty Sark. He made several record breaking journeys between the UK and Australia.
Burnham Thorpe, the birthplace of Nelson, is a mile to the southeast. King’s Lynn is 20 miles away with mainline access to Cambridge and London and Norwich is 30 miles away with its international gateway via Schiphol.
