Description

With an entry in the Domesday Book of 1085, Ingworth is a small, parish village steeped in local history and set in the heart of National Trust countryside. Forming a very special cluster of hamlets and villages set around the historic Blickling Estate this exceptional location is one of North Norfolk‘s best-kept secrets and home to a few fortunate residents.

The village features a cluster of individual period homes that flank the River Bure which winds its way gently through idyllic countryside.

71 The Street is a charming, three-bedroom brick and flint cottage lovingly created from a former pair of cottages that once formed part of the historic Blickling Estate. Now held on a long lease with the National Trust this exceptional home offers the rarest of opportunities to own a genuine piece of Norfolk history set in arguably one of the most idyllic and unspoilt corners of the county.

An intricate brick and flint faade conceals a deceptively spacious and charming home that spans over 1,600 sq. ft. across two floors. Two balanced receptions provide versatile living space, one with an open fire and one with a wood-burning stove. A recently renovated shaker-style kitchen adds a touch of style and elegance along with a modern and stylish bathroom and separate shower room.

The first-floor features three, double bedrooms each with character and the two principal bedrooms include fitted wardrobes, the larger of the bedrooms has an en-suite WC which could easily be adapted into a full en-suite bathroom.

In addition to the habitable space of the cottage is an attached workshop and spacious store. Set within a charming, barn-style structure attached to the cottage this area offers great potential for conversion into additional living space subject to relevant planning consents. Presently it provides excellent storage space, workshop and ancillary space to support the gardens.

What sets this fine cottage apart are the glorious and generous gardens. Lovingly designed and maintained by the present owner the gardens wrap around on three sides of the cottage to create a magical haven.

Approaching 0.2 acres (stms) the gardens feature shaped lawns connected by pathways that meander through established shrubs and trees. The garden features individual sections that create areas for quiet reflection and entertaining in equal measures. The gardens gently rise away from the cottage to create an ‘amphitheatre‘ feel and look out of rolling opine countryside.

To one side is an area dedicated to off-road parking accessed via a shared driveway with the neighbouring cottage.

This special area boasts a unique and diverse habitat that is home to otters, a variety of insects and birds, plenty of trout and coarse fish in the river- plus the occasional visit from a kingfisher. For the opportunity to create your very own ‘Tales of the Riverbank‘, and to fully appreciate the lifestyle this special residence can offer, we highly recommend a viewing
