Cross LaneBrancaster, King's Lynn, Norfolk, PE31 8AE

Marshlands is an exceptionally located lifestyle opportunity. With an impressive principal house, a highly successful holiday cottage/self-contained annexe, plenty of parking, garage and stores, car port, private south facing gardens, direct access to the coastal path and quite spectacular, uninterrupted views of the marshes, creeks and Royal West Norfolk golf club..

Both houses are currently thriving holiday homes, yielding a significant income and providing an adaptability to how the property can be enjoyed. There is also further potential to incorporate the stores, garage and car port into living space should it be required.

Marshlands
The principal house is a detached barn-style house, which has been altered and improved to make the most of its setting. As soon as you enter, the eye is drawn straight out to the marsh views, a continuing theme throughout the house. The accommodation is stylishly presented having been the subject of refurbishment in 2020, with interiors by Sophie & Boo. A large living room with central fireplace and wood burner, bespoke cabinetry and window seats with dreamy views over the marsh, has double doors through to a spacious dining room, and a further set to an outside terrace. A well-appointed kitchen is part open plan through to an open dining and sitting area, with impressive vaulted ceiling and glazed bi-fold doors out to the south facing terrace. The two main bedrooms are on the first floor, with the expected views over the coastline, and both are spacious double rooms, with the principal bedroom en suite having a generous contemporary bath/shower room.

The gardens to the south of the house have been thoughtfully landscaped to provide open areas and defined seating areas to make the most of the sun throughout the day. A sheltered private courtyard seating area is to the east which is also south facing, there is a raised patio for afternoon and evening sun, complete with outdoor kitchen, and finally a partly sunken paved seating and dining area, with all day sun and bordered by Lavender, Olive trees and a Magnolia Grandiflora.

Marsh Retreat Annexe
To the west of the main house is the self-contained annexe, otherwise known as Marsh Retreat. With a fantastic occupancy rate, and plenty of repeat business, this is a proven income generator. It is not difficult to see why, with a completely charming open plan kitchen/living/dining area, with fine views of the coastline to match the main house, and complete with wood burner. A well-fitted bathroom sits between the living space and the spacious double bedroom, with panelled wall and direct views from the bed over the marshes, perfect for lazy mornings. There is planning consent to link through to the rest of the outbuildings, creating a substantial living room with bi-fold doors, a further bedroom with en suite, and a utility and store room.

Marsh Retreat has the use of a outdoor dining area, underneath a pergola surrounded by lavender, verbena and box balls, with a masonry bbq, and adjoins the marsh with far reaching views. Between Marshlands and Marsh Retreat is a private gate onto the coastal path, to provide almost endless and scenic walks.

Buildings and grounds
Marsh Retreat forms part of a ‘U' shaped building, of traditional brick and chalkstone, which hosts a two bay open fronted car port, a store/garage and a large second bedroom/ games room, WC, and boiler/utility room, with lean-to storage behind the building. This useful building provides excellent storage for cars, boats, garden furniture and equipment, but could ultimately be utilised in many different ways, including the potential of further accommodation.

A gravelled driveway, with panelled wooden gates, sweeps down to the properties, with two gravelled parking areas for both houses with plenty of space for many cars and boats.
