Delve into village life in Barton Turf, Norfolk...
Pennygate is a Hamlet situated in the idyllic Broadland village of Barton Turf, located in the heart of the Norfolk Broads National Park. Known for its beautiful surroundings, Barton Turf offers a peaceful retreat while still being within easy reach of essential amenities. The village itself is home to an historic church (St Michael and All Angels), and a popular cricket ground. Barton Turf also features a staithe, providing residents with direct access to the water, making it a perfect spot for boating and paddle boarding. Nearby Neatishead, just 1 mile away, offers further amenities including a well-stocked community-run shop and post office, a pub, a new modern village hall which has events, entertainment & meetings, and the highly regarded Neatishead C of E Primary School, which is rated "Good" by Ofsted. Secondary education options include Stalham High School and Broadland High Ormiston Academy in Hoveton, both within easy reach and served by school transport.
Barton Turf is just 4 miles from Stalham and approximately 5 miles from the bustling riverside town of Wroxham, which provides a wider selection of shops, cafes, restaurants, and a large supermarket. Wroxham also serves as a transport hub for the region, with a railway station offering regular Greater Anglia services to Norwich and onward connections to London.
Norwich, the nearest city and county town of Norfolk, is around 14 miles away and provides comprehensive amenities including top-rated schools, nhs and private healthcare facilities, a range of retail options, and Norwich International Airport, offering flights to domestic and European destinations.
Barton Turf itself is a hidden gem, prized for its access to the Norfolk Broads via Barton Broad, one of the largest broads in the region, popular for boating, birdwatching, and peaceful waterside walks. For the current owner, living on Pennygate has offered a perfect balance of quiet, peaceful country living and the warmth of a good, friendly community.
An exceptional countryside retreat in the heart of the Norfolk broads...
Tucked away in a blissfully private setting at the edge of the Norfolk Broads, Cobble End Croft is a truly bespoke residence, crafted with heart, vision, and a deep appreciation for both family life and refined living. Designed in 2000 by the current owners, in close collaboration with an architect, the home was tailored with intention, a blend of graceful entertaining spaces and warm, functional family living. Over the years, it has played host to weddings, celebrations, and countless cherished memories, a home that has grown with love at its core.
As you arrive via a sweeping shingle driveway, elegantly designed in a roundabout style with a central island of curated palms and planting, the sense of seclusion is immediate. The approach sets the tone for what lies beyond: Peace, privacy, and countryside charm. Ample parking accommodates guests with ease, while a garage provides additional storage solutions.
Stepping inside, the entrance hall exudes warmth and grandeur, with twin archways opening into the formal dining room, a space made for laughter, stories, and candlelit dinners that stretch into the evening. To the front, the sitting room captures your attention with a striking brick-built fireplace housing a gas-fired wood burner, creating a focal point that both impresses and invites. Flowing naturally into the sun-filled garden room, this expansive area offers a seamless transition between indoors and out, with French doors that open onto the generous patio terrace.
For those who enjoy hosting, the dedicated bar room is a true delight, designed for lively evenings with friends or quiet cocktails with family. The kitchen/breakfast room offers a perfect marriage of traditional style and modern convenience, with high-quality cabinetry, a Quooker boiling water tap, integrated appliances including a cda induction hob and double Zanussi oven, and a charming breakfast area overlooking the grounds. A separate utility room and walk-in pantry keep the practicalities discreetly tucked away, while a ground floor shower room and versatile fifth bedroom/home office provide flexible options for modern living, whether for guests, children, or remote work.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress. Four double bedrooms provide comfort and privacy for all members of the family. The principal suite is impressive, featuring a private en-suite and French doors opening onto a roof terrace, a rare luxury, offering panoramic views across open farmland and skies that stretch for miles. The second bedroom also enjoys the benefit of an en-suite, while the remaining two share a beautifully appointed family bathroom. All bedrooms come complete with built-in storage, maintaining the home's clean, flowing aesthetic.
Outside, Cobble End Croft unfolds into a sanctuary of its own. Set within grounds extending to approximately an acre (stms), the landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully designed to maximise both beauty and function. The spacious rear terrace, perfect for summer entertaining, surrounds the home and offers a backdrop of open fields, uninterrupted and unfenced, merging the garden with nature beyond.
A timber-built hot tub room sits beautifully on the terrace, with triple-aspect glazing that allows you to enjoy the spa in all seasons, while still immersed in the scenery. A large, detached log cabin, currently used as a gym, with a toilet and a sink, offers endless potential for a studio or a garden office, overlooking the garden and farmland. A scattering of mature, fruit-bearing trees, including apple, cherry, plum and damson, ensures the changing seasons are always celebrated, with fresh harvests come autumn.
At the far end of the garden, practical additions include a roller-doored shed, providing ample space for equipment including a ride-on mower, all carefully positioned to blend into the natural setting. Yet, despite its rural feel, Cobble End remains well connected, with easy access to nearby villages, coastal walks, and the beauty of the Broads just moments away.
Cobble End Croft isn’t simply a house. It’s a home woven with stories, filled with light, and wrapped in nature — a private haven, built for living beautifully.
