About this property
Situated in a prominent position in the Burn valley this iconic landmark property offers characterful accommodation of inspirational dimensions with volumes, flooded by natural light, that seem in total harmony with the big skies of Norfolk. The current owners use a fair proportion of the ground floor to exhibit art, but the space would suit a host of potential uses including home office, therapy practice or studio space.
Occupying a mature, private plot backing farmland, with useful outbuildings and parking, the cavernous accommodation includes kitchen breakfast room, dining area, large reception room/bedroom, two further reception rooms (currently exhibition space) and cloakroom on the ground floor plus two separate first floor areas, accessed via different staircases, including principal bedroom with large sun terrace offering rural views, two further double bedrooms, bathroom and shower room.
Externally the mature plot provides a high degree of privacy and features secret courtyards, a delightful wildlife pond, wild garden area, lovely lawns with inset mature trees and deep, well stocked borders, a walled courtyard to the front and double gated vehicular access from Burnham Road to private parking.
South Creake is a small village in the valley of the river Burn which flows to Burnham Market and the other Burnham villages. It has a village pub, The Ostrich Inn (currently closed), a Memorial Pavilion/community centre, playing fields with a children's play area, beautiful church, St Mary's, plant centre, fishing lake and an annual classical music festival.
The village lies almost equidistant between the market town of Fakenham and the beautiful Georgian town of Burnham Market with the nearest train station approximately 22 miles away at King's Lynn.
