Location

Langham village is located just inland from the famous North Norfolk coast, so incredibly well positioned to enjoy a coastal lifestyle whilst being able to return to a quiet village life during peak season. Within Langham is The Bluebell public house, a short walk from the house, with The Harper, a boutique Spa hotel just around the corner. Also within the village is a popular primary school, rated Ofsted outstanding.

The neighbouring village of Morston is the gateway to the coastline and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has The Anchor public house, a Michelin starred restaurant at Morston Hall, and sailing and general boating from Morston Quay out to Blakeney pit. There is excellent sailing at various points along the coast, a plethora of restaurants and pubs in the area, seal trips at both Morston and Blakeney and a network of coastal walks through the marshes and beaches with world famous bird watching.

Holt (approximately 5 miles) is famous for its boutique shopping, Byfords delicatessen, good restaurants and pubs, art galleries, crafts shops and antique show rooms. The town has further specialist and everyday shopping, private and state education, and banking and health facilities within the town. Greshams school is to the east of the town, with Beeston prep further along the coastline.

Description

On the edge of the perfectly positioned North Norfolk village of Langham, Milson’s Cottage is a home that has a traditional feel to it with attractive brick and flint exterior, yet was built to modern standards and since updated further, to provide a home that is easy to run and be enjoyed. Most recent notable works include the replacement of all windows, new carpets, and redecoration throughout, and boiler and pressurised water system installed within the last 5 years.

Enjoying a corner plot, creating an openness in a village environment, the house has a really liveable layout. It has been designed in a way that allows for an open plan style of living, or the ability to create cosier spaces if required or depending on the season. By opening up double doors into the large conservatory and sitting room, the house becomes almost entirely open plan, with the kitchen, dining room, sitting room and conservatory all becoming one seamless space, with a spacious and light feel, and of course very sociable, great for entertaining. In contrast, the sitting room can become a lovely cosy room, with fireplace (ready for a woodburner). Elsewhere, there is a useful study tucked away at the back of the house, and functional utility, whilst the kitchen is well arranged and complete with island unit with breakfast bar.

Upstairs, off a central landing, are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a spacious double room, with en suite shower room, and a great view out to the south over countryside. A second double bedroom at the other end of the house is actually larger than the principal room, and with triple aspect, with a third bedroom and bathroom completing the accommodation.

The house has an integral garage, ideal for storage of bikes, gardening tools and other life kit, or could become part of the house’s accommodation if required.

Outside
A brick weave drive serves as the entrance to Milson’s Cottage, providing private off street parking leading up to the garage. A paved path then leads to the front door, continuing round to the back of the house.

The gardens of the cottage are a delight, wrapping round the house from the north to the south, and have a lovely maturity. Sweeping lawns are bordered by shrubberies and herbaceous beds, with lavender framing the well appointed conservatory. A patio area to the south is ideal for outside dining.

The south boundary is walled, whilst to the south and east an attractive willow weave fence defines the boundary.
