Cuckoo Cottage is a charming end terrace cottage built circa 1850 in one of north Norfolk's most desirable coastal villages and just a short walk from the centre of the village centre and the footpath leading to the marsh and coastal path.
The property has characterful ground floor living accommodation accessed through a utility/boot room with a cloakroom off, a kitchen/dining room and a cosy sitting room. Upstairs, there are 2 interlinked bedrooms and a well appointed bathroom. Further benefits include a double sided wood burning stove between the kitchen/dining room and sitting room, electric boiler central heating (with a Hive smart thermostat), quarry tiled floors and exposed ceiling beams with sash windows with shutters to the front elevation and original internal doors.
Outside, Cuckoo Cottage has a small walled southerly facing courtyard garden with space for a table and chairs and barbecue etc. The cottage is a successful holiday lettings business for the current owners and the furniture, fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.
Blakeney is one of north Norfolk's most favoured coastal villages with its narrow streets and picturesque cobble cottages leading down to the harbour. In the Middle Ages it was considered to be one of the most important ports in Britain supporting a vibrant smuggling community for many centuries up until as late as the 1850s but the draining of the marshes and the silting up of the channels put pay to them. Today the pace of life is more gentle and visitors prefer to enjoy watching the birdlife, the seals and exploring this area of outstanding beauty.
Blakeney has many amenities and leisure activities on offer in the town or close by in the neighbouring coastal villages including, sailing, bird watching, walking, first class accommodation and restaurants, schools, doctor's surgery, garage and a full range of shops including a fresh fish shop and a delicatessen.
Mains water, mains drainage and mains electricity. Electric boiler providing central heating to radiators (with a Hive smart thermostat) with supplementary night storage heaters. EPC Rating Band TBC.
