House For Sale £425,000
A period property in the picturesque catfield common, which lies just north of the riverside village of Potter Heigham - sometimes referred to as the Gateway to the wildest and quietest part of the norfolk broads which lies twenty miles to the north east of the historic city of norwich.
Catfield Common sits between the river ant and hickling broad and benefits from the navigational access along the River Ant to the wider Norfolk Broads waters. Life off the water also has an abundance of recreational attractions with two national nature reserves, the long-distance weaver way walk.
Set back and screened from the passing road by high natural hedging, Staithe Cottage is approached through a gated entrance leading to a hard standing and shingle driveway providing ample off-road parking. A lawn frontage sweeps around the side of the property granting access to a well maintained, enclosed rear lawn garden with a timber garage.
This generous family home enters into a practical hallway with a utility room. An archway from the hallway leads to a spacious kitchen with internal doors leading into a bright breakfast room, a separate dining room and a welcoming sitting room. From the breakfast room a rear hallway leads to a lobby, a family bath and shower room and out to a conservatory overlooking the rear garden. To the first floor, doors off the landing lead to four bedrooms, the master with an en-suite shower room.
Life at Staithe Cottage is further complemented in its setting; a short stroll to the staithe with a number of small boat moorings. The crown inn and the post office stores, the village hall and primary school in the neighbouring village of Catfield and the ‘the greyhound’ public house in Hickling. The bustling market town of stalham with its ample amenities is a short three miles north or alternatively the sandy coastline is less than seven miles east.
