£595,000 Guide
3 Bedroom Cottage Sold STC
Lavender Cottage is not only stunningly presented, but also perfectly positioned in the very heart of Burnham Market, voted one of the top ten prettiest villages in the United Kingdom.
When the current owners bought Lavender Cottage seven years ago it was in a rather sad and unloved condition. They immediately set about a complete programme of refurbishment, which included opening up the rooms to allow the light through and creating a much more practical living space.
Having once been a shop, there is of course a front door onto the street. However, the natural entrance for this cottage is from the rear, via a very pretty sun terrace and into its fully glazed, vaulted entrance atrium.
The living space has been opened up to provide a free flowing kitchen and dining space, and then through to the reception room at the front. To the rear of the cottage there is a ground floor single bedroom as well as a separate cloakroom.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room, whilst the other has use of a family bathroom. Outside, and in addition to the west facing terrace, there is an additional private lawned garden off set to the property and to the rear.
What is also highly unusual for a property in such a central village location, is this cottage has one off road parking space, essential in Burnham Market in the summertime!
Attention to detail is evident throughout and the finish in Lavender Cottage is immaculate. As such the cottage has subsequently proven to be an incredibly popular and successful holiday let investment.
BURNHAM MARKET Treasured memories of family holidays, a day at the world famous horse trials or a well-earned afternoon spent browsing its pretty boutiques - there are plenty of ways to experience Burnham Market, the jewel in north Norfolk's glittering crown.
Located close to the mouth of the River Burn, believed to be the source of its name, the village has long been associated with naval hero Admiral Horatio Nelson, who lived at nearby Burnham Thorpe.
A refined elegance permeates every aspect of village life, from the traditional homewares found at Uttings, the locals 'go-to' for household essentials, to sampling tasty treats at the Tuscan Farm Shop, Humble Pie Deli or Gurneys Fish Shop - this is a place to savour the finer things. Eating out is also a joy with award winning Socius serving a British-inspired tapas menu on the edge of Foundry Place, and NoTwenty9's bar, restaurant and courtyard provides a relaxed spot to wine and dine on warm summer's nights.
Fashion counts on the Champagne coast and for chic style head to Anna's boutique or 'next gen' department store Percy Langley, make it fancy at The Hat Shop, go country at Gun Hill Clothing Company or casual at Joules or Jack Wills. For a little culture, peruse Burnham Market's art galleries - the Fairfax Gallery has been exhibiting for more than 20 years and Pococks the Artmonger has an eclectic display. Or if you have little ones in tow, don't miss a trip to Mable's - unmissable with its pretty pink frontage - where you can encourage their artistic talent with a pot painting session or treat them to a bag of traditional sweets.
It goes without saying that Burnham Market and its smaller siblings, Burnham Deepdale, Burnham Norton, Burnham Overy Staithe and Burnham Thorpe, are home to some of the finest houses on the coast. Whether your dream is a Georgian classic, a traditional cottage or a sleek, contemporary house, this is an incredible place to discover your forever home.
