Originally commissioned and built in 1906, this fine, double fronted detached residence has been a much loved, family home for the past 25 years. This character filled property offers balanced and versatile accommodation that is well-maintained and modernised, yet still embracing all its period charm and detail.
Extending to around 1,500 sq. ft. the accommodation is set over two floors and has an elegant and stylish feel throughout. A central, front entrance hall provides an inviting reception and features two oval windows. A dual aspect, formal lounge features an ornate fireplace, stripped and polished floorboards, and french double doors out onto the south facing garden.
A formal dining room sits adjacent to the sitting room to provide the ideal entertaining space or versatile second reception. The kitchen has recently been enhanced and renovated to provide a modern and stylish yet elegant space thanks to classic ‘Shaker‘ style cabinetry. The kitchen is served by the all-important utility room and a guest WC completes the ground floor.
The first-floor features four, individual double bedrooms with the two principal rooms looking out over the formal gardens. The bedrooms are perfectly served by a family sized bath and shower room.
The property is set in mature and established gardens, much of which exists on the front of the property and to the south-east. Set well back form the road and around 90‘ in length, the formalised gardens feature a paved terrace looking out over shaped lawns and colourful, flowering beds. A scattering of trees provides dappled shade and an attractive Sylvan setting. A gated entrance on the front boundary offers parking options.
The property is accessed via a shared lane that leads to a private, rear courtyard area. This area features secure, off-road parking options and access to the ‘barn style‘ double garage and hayloft. This sizeable building offers excellent potential for further enhancement or adaptation (subject to relevant planning consents).The Oaks is located in a discreet and leafy setting yet conveniently positioned on the edge of Cromer and the north Norfolk coastline.
CROMER With an elegant pier, Pavilion Theatre and grand Victorian villas, many with panoramic views over the pebble and sand beach, it‘s easy to see why Cromer has perennial appeal to staycationers and permanent residents alike. Banksy recently visited the town on a headline-making ‘spraycation‘ which focused the media‘s attention on the east side of the Norfolk coast, and in recent years there has been a regular flow of relocaters from the capital and home counties looking for a life by the sea.
This, in turn, has triggered an ‘on the up‘ momentum for the area and seen fabulous start-up businesses breathe new life into the streets surrounding the town centre. Spend a morning exploring the pretty boutiques and follow the lanes towards the seafront to pick up a Cromer crab - widely regarded as one of the best found in English waters, the eight-legged crustacean still provides a major source of income for the town‘s fishermen and simply served with bread makes an unbeatable lunch or supper!
Or push the boat out with fish and chips from No 1 Cromer, Galton Blackiston‘s award winning Cromer eatery perched on the clifftop. Treat yourself to a relaxing lunch at the Upstairs Restaurant where stunning sea views meet tasty seafood, or join the queue downstairs and enjoy your takeaway sitting on the wall as the seagulls soar above you for a fully immersive ‘beside the seaside‘ experience. Follow the slope down from the clifftop to the beach and walk the shoreline or practise your hand at an afternoon skimming stones out to the horizon line.
With a good selection of schools including independent Beeston Hall School at nearby West Runton, it‘s easy to see the appeal of this gorgeously gentrified town for young families as a place to put down roots. Come discover if it‘s the place for you too
