Description

Discover the charm of Manor House, a remarkable, detached, late Victorian townhouse nestled in the heart of the vibrant seaside town of Cromer. Built in 1906 and designed by the acclaimed British architect Rowland Wilfred William Carter, this exquisite property stands as a testament to Carter‘s Arts and Crafts architectural style, which graces much of North Norfolk. Featuring five grand bedrooms and three luxurious bathrooms, this home exudes timeless elegance while offering modern comforts, making it the perfect family home or a lucrative holiday let. Listed in the archives of Cromer Museum, Manor House is steeped in rich history, having once served as the ‘Manse‘ for the nearby Methodist church, it was given the amusingly unfitting restrictive covenant prohibiting the sale of alcohol - adding a unique layer to its story.

Manor House spans over 3,500 square feet of beautifully designed space, perfectly blending its Victorian heritage with contemporary updates. The five spacious bedrooms are distributed across the home, offering flexibility and privacy for family members or visiting guests. One of the downstairs rooms has been thoughtfully transformed into a self-contained bedroom, complete with its own utility-come-kitchenette - ideal for those who value both comfort and seclusion. Despite its extensive and meticulous refurbishment, the property retains the original Victorian soul, boasting high ceilings, intricate woodwork, and large windows that bathe the home in natural light.

This home‘s current owners have lovingly maintained it for over 12 years, during the latter part it has also been run as a successful holiday let. Yet, it remains more than just an investment property; it is a much-loved family home, cherished for its historical significance and character. From its spacious living areas to its elegant bedrooms and immaculate bathrooms, Manor House provides an ideal balance of luxury and practicality. The stylish, modern upgrades ensure all the conveniences of 21st century living, while the manner in which the original features have been maintained is an art, rarely captured but, perfected at Manor House.

Location is key at Manor House, offering proximity to the town centre, Cromer‘s iconic beach, and the nearby rail link connecting Sheringham to Norwich. This stunning home also boasts off-road parking - a rare and valuable asset in the heart of Cromer - as well as a private, low-maintenance walled garden that invites relaxation and outdoor enjoyment. Whether you‘re looking for a serene family home, a profitable holiday rental, or a blend of both, Manor House presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of Cromer‘s history.

Experience the perfect balance of historic charm, modern comfort, and seaside living at Manor House, where every detail has been carefully crafted to create an inviting and truly special home.


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
