8 Church Street North Creake, Fakenham, Norfolk, NR21 9AD 8 Church Street North Creake, Fakenham, Norfolk, NR21 9AD Guide Price £695,000 Viewing by appointment with our Burnham Market Office 01328 730340 or [email protected] 8 CHURCH STREET Number Eight Church Street is a beautifully presented three double bedroom cottage but with the added bonus of flexible additional buildings with huge potential for different purposes. The house itself was fully refurbished to an incredibly high standard only five years ago and has been lovingly maintained as a main home ever since. The original cottage is most likely early Victorian and whilst the character and age of the house can still be sensed in the main drawing room with its wonderful, exposed beams and cosy log burning stove, the rest of the house is more contemporary in style. To the rear is a large kitchen, dining and family room with the curve ended shaker units with their oak worktop perfectly matching the oak flooring and the french doors at the end giving access out to the west facing garden. Upstairs all three bedrooms are good doubles with the principal bedroom at the front having an en-suite shower room whilst the other two share a family bathroom. Outside and to the side of the house is a very large gated gravelled parking area as well as what looks like a large double garage. However, step inside and you will find that it has ben converted into a fully insulated, light and airy artist’s studio. This is an absolutely ideal building for those looking to run a home based business or alternatively it could easily convert into a completely self-contained annex (subject to the usual consents) or it could just continue as it is, a hub for creativity. The garden beyond overlooks the water meadows of the village giving the impression that it extends well beyond its boundary and at the bottom the River Burn burbles past the olive trees that parallel it and this outside space has been carefully segmented into different areas that flow naturally together. Watch the morning sun from a table in the western corner or enjoy its midday heat from the sheltered patio behind the studio, or even pass through the ochre coloured steel weaved partition and enjoy a gin and tonic as it sets over the meadows to the west. If all that was not enough, there is also a fully insulated garden room with by-folding doors that would make an idyllic home office or playroom. In all Number Eight is a beautifully presented home that offers opportunities and potential for a host of different buyers.

These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
