Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, this property is ideal for exploring the North Norfolk coastline, dotted with picturesque towns and villages, many with great beaches. Heacham has two beaches that are less than a mile away from the property. South Beach is famed for its glorious sunsets over the sea and North Beach has a promenade along which you can enjoy a spectacular walk or cycle to the popular seaside town of Hunstanton. Local amenities and tourist attractions at Hunstanton include gardens, shops, amusements, pubs, eateries, tennis, bowling, a theatre, indoor swimming pool and Sealife Centre. Local days out include Brancaster for sailing, Holkham Hall for the deer park and beach, Snettisham Park for wildlife, and the Queen’s home of Sandringham House and Gardens.

 As you enter the property from the driveway, you arrive in the homely hallway and immediately get a feel for the Norfolk-inspired theme that has been lovingly applied throughout. From the hallway you have access to the living areas, the first door to the right takes you into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. The lounge is the perfect place to relax and unwind with ample comfortable seating for up to six guests, so why not cosy up and watch your favourite show through the Smart TV? The dining area has a generous sized table and seating, perfect to gather around for a light snack or hearty meal. The kitchen has everything you will need for a real home away from home with an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and a washer/dryer. Leading off the kitchen and down one small step is a conservatory which provides an ideal place to enjoy some downtime with a book. There are three bedrooms to choose from, all with plenty of storage space for your belongings. The main bedroom is a spacious double with room for a travel cot if required. There is a second double bedroom and a twin room. All bedrooms are serviced by the family bathroom with a shower over bath and WC.

A comfortable, clean and well equipped bungalow. Only one bathroom and no separate toilet which might be an issue if there were 6 of you. Good location for accessing the beaches at Heacham and for exploring the North coast of Norfolk.
