3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Church Walk, Burnham Market PE31

5 Church Walk is a semi-detached home occupying an enviable position in one of North Norfolk's most sought-after villages, backing directly onto open countryside and just a stone's throw from The Green at Burnham Market. The property offers a stunning opportunity to improve, extend and upgrade - subject to the required consents - with the potential to create a unique home on a large mature plot. Originally constructed in 1921 as part of the Homes for Heroes programme, the house retains much of its character and style with many original features. It is one of six older properties, now all privately owned, many of which have been extended and updated to provide spacious family homes.

The accommodation includes a welcoming hallway, cosy snug with fireplace, large living room overlooking the garden, kitchen with pantry, rear lobby and useful utility/store. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms, two with country views and a family bathroom. The property is heated with an electric boiler to radiator system.

The property is set well back from the road with off road parking for numerous vehicles and pleasant lawns with inset shrubs and trees. The rear garden is an absolute delight, with southerly aspect, backing directly on to open fields and footpaths and having useful outbuildings and a garden WC.

Please note that 5 Church Walk is being offered for sale with non onward chain but it subject to a Section 157 covenant that prohibits purchase by those who have not lived and/or worked in Norfolk for at least the past 3 years.

Burnham Market is a beautiful, traditional village close to the North Norfolk coast, offering a full range of shops, including numerous independent boutiques, a Post Office, antiques shop, jewellery shop, garage, butcher, fishmonger, wine merchant, deli, bakery, and doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries. At the heart of the village is a fine parish church, with a selection of pubs — including the famous Hoste Arms hotel — and excellent restaurants such as Socius and No. 29. The village centre is arranged around a picturesque green, surrounded mainly by Georgian houses, in what is widely regarded as one of Norfolk’s most desirable locations.

The Burnhams comprise six villages along the North Norfolk coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with miles of unspoilt beaches, wild salt marshes, and creeks punctuated by small, historic harbours. Wells-next-the-Sea lies five miles to the east, accessible via the spectacular Holkham Estate, while to the west, Brancaster Staithe offers excellent sailing and watersports opportunities.
