Description
Just a short stroll to the dramatic Pakefield coastline, the scenic views over the neighbouring ancient Church and its resident Sheep makes for quite the perfect location to call home.
Believed to date back to the mid 1800’s, this charming cottage isn’t just all about the location, this is a home with beautifully aged bones framing a sympathetically modernised interior.
Great lengths have been taken over the years to protect the historical legacy of this home, blending old with new to achieve stunning results which are immediately evident from the moment you step beyond the quaint arched doorway. Sensitively extended, the kitchen is a wonderfully social space, full of natural light from the array of windows dotted around the room, highlighting the exposed brickwork, aged wooden beams, and rustic cottage style cabinetry. Wonderful surprises are to be found at every turn, from stained glass windows and cast-iron radiators to the archaic aged woodwork, there is certainly no shortage of character here. There’s also a sense of tranquillity due to the stunning location and lovely integration with nature surrounding the house.
A room where you can enjoy the seasonal views throughout the year, the conservatory opens up beautifully private views out over the gardens to the side and rear, particularly beautiful within the warmer months enjoying a natural indoor-outdoor flow. For cosier times, the sitting room is large enough for the whole family to enjoy the charming log-burning stove with an edge of rustic intimacy.
Discover four good size bedrooms, a family bathroom and separate shower room as you explore upstairs, all sensibly leading from the winding landing, packed with more character and some beautiful views to both the front and back of the house.

Outside...
Approaching the house from the coastal lane, pull into the shingled driveway where there is plenty of space to park a couple of vehicles.
The gardens to the side and rear, wrap around this home with the opportunity to chase the sun throughout the day into the early evening. Beautifully private, the green space to the rear is a pleasant surprise in terms of size particularly given the sought-after location. An old brick outbuilding can be found to one corner next to a slightly ram shackled shed, overtaken by nature and time.
The lane to the front will take you directly by foot to the stunning Pakefield beach in a matter of minutes, strolling by Pakefield Church and its historic graveyard carefully tended to by the infamous herd of Sheep, a real local niche.
