A comfortable and spacious house in a thriving North Norfolk village.
Located in one of our favourite North Norfolk villages, Lime House is perfectly located for the country and coastal lifestyle that the county has to offer. Constructed of brick and flint that this area of Norfolk is so well known for, with just over 2500 sq ft of living space, the house is comfortable, light and spacious and with a layout that would suit many styles of living.
A welcoming entrance and staircase hall leads off to all the main spaces of the ground floor. At the rear of it all is the kitchen, with dual aspect, the homely Aga, and large enough for a central dining table. Further dining space is in the adjoining garden room, with as the name suggests, has a great view over the gardens. Double doors flow through to the sitting room, complete with woodburner, with the two rooms creating a very sociable space to enjoy. An additional sitting room provides space to escape and relax, again with fireplace. For practicality, a utility with external door allows for hosing down after a muddy walk or day on the coast, with the integral garage off this which provides excellent storage and the chance to create further accommodation, perhaps a ground floor bedroom if required.
Upstairs, off a central landing, there are four double bedrooms. These include a light and airy principal bedroom, with en suite bath/shower room and built in cupboards. Across the landing are the three further bedrooms, all with good natural light, and with built in wardrobes in bedroom two. A family bathroom serves these, with a useful airing cupboard too.
The Gardens and Grounds
Set back from the road, Lime House has a wide private gravelled parking area that leads up to the house and car ports. From the parking area, and indeed the house itself, there are fine views out across the river valley, which is a tributary into the river Stiffkey.
The main gardens are to the south of the house, with great privacy. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn, with shrubbed borders, central flower bed, and gravelled area adjoining the house. It is a real sun trap, being sheltered and directly south facing. The gardens gently rise up to a level area on the southern most part, where there are further charming views across neighbouring meadowland. This top area is ideal for taking in the famous Norfolk sunsets.
A gravelled path leads round the house, from the gardens to the front parking area and car ports. The latter are ideal storage for cars and boats, with direct access into the integral garage.

I am a huge fan of Binham, and this is the ideal village house from which to enjoy it from, as well as being able to get to the coast quickly.
