House For Sale £750,000
Prominently positioned in the heart of Snettisham! A spacious & beautifully presented 5 double bedroom cottage with an attached retail premises and 1-bed annexe. Private garden with roof top terrace
The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer one of Snettisham's most recognisable properties, prominently positioned and with a distinctive facade which overlooks the marketplace. The Grapes has been a fixture on Snettisham's marketplace for many years, originally as a public house and more recently a picture framer's and gallery. The sale includes the current retail premises, a superbly presented 5-bedroom cottage and an independent 1-bedroom annexe/holiday cottage. At the rear of the house there is an enclosed and beautifully maintained walled garden with outbuilding and a stunning rooftop terrace.
The current retail space includes the 28ft shop area, along with two other rooms (listed as the stock room and cutting room); however, this could be increased by moving further into the residential space if required.
The main house is superbly presented with character features throughout and with existing spaces being cleverly re-purposed to accommodate the needs of modern living. On the ground floor there are two spacious reception rooms, a farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room, study, laundry room and cloakroom. Upstairs there are five double bedrooms and a stylishly appointed family bathroom, with the master bedroom also enjoying the luxury of an en-suite shower room.
The annexe, known as Grapes Cottage, was adapted several years ago to accommodate a member of the current owner's family and offers a well-presented open-plan living area with kitchen, a double bedroom and a shower/wet-room. The annexe could also be used as a holiday or long-term let if required.
At the side of the property, a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking, with gated access into the private garden. The garden is delightful space, hidden away from the retail area, with various places to sit scattered around a neatly maintained lawn with colourfully planted shrub and flower borders. There is also a fantastic 20ft x 14ft workshop/storeroom which has been recently re-roofed and refurbished. A set of timber steps at the side of the house leads up the stunning roof-top terrace, which provides an amazing place for outside entertaining, with exceptional views to the west.
