DESCRIPTION

Primrose Farm occupies a wonderful position in the highly sought-after coastal village of Wiveton, set within just under two acres of gardens and meadowland. The property enjoys a peaceful setting between Chapel Lane and The Street, offering both privacy and excellent access to the surrounding countryside and coastline.
The traditional brick-and-flint farmhouse provides well-balanced and versatile accommodation with attractive views across the gardens from many of the principal rooms. The reception hall, with wooden flooring and staircase rising to the first floor, leads to a study/snug, cloakroom with shower and the main reception areas. The dual-aspect sitting room is a particularly welcoming space, featuring an open fireplace and exposed beams, while doors on either side of the chimney breast connect through to the spacious kitchen dining room.
The kitchen dining room is filled with natural light and enjoys French doors opening onto the garden and offers ample space for dining and family living. The kitchen area is galley style with fitted wooden cupboards and integrated appliances including an electric oven and gas hob. There is also space for a freestanding dishwasher and fridge freezer.
On the first floor, a long and light-filled landing serves five bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous double with views across the grounds, complemented by two further double bedrooms and two single/bunk bedrooms. The family bathroom is fitted with a freestanding claw-foot bath, heated towel rail and traditional white suite, while a separate shower room provides additional convenience.
A significant feature of the property is the substantial traditional barn situated adjacent to the house. Partially converted, it currently provides an excellent games room with mezzanine level above, together with a separate home office/library, utility room and extensive storage space. Subject to any necessary consents, the barn offers exciting potential to be incorporated into the main house, creating additional living accommodation or a reconfigured layout to suit modern family requirements.

OUTSIDE

The grounds are a particular highlight, extending to just under two acres and comprising a combination of formal gardens, an orchard replete with mature mulberry, quince, plum and apple trees and a large paddock beautifully planted with specimen trees including oak, walnut, silver poplar and Spanish chestnut.
The setting provides a wonderful environment for families, wildlife enthusiasts and those seeking space and privacy. There is potential for many lifestyle choices like a kitchen garden, chickens or even keeping a pony, while gated access onto The Street adds further flexibility.
Towards the far end of the grounds are a few outbuildings which have previously been used for occasional accommodation, with water, electricity and WC facilities connected. These buildings now require renovation but offer further potential, subject to any necessary permissions.
The surrounding area is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, with coastal walks, open countryside and the North Norfolk coastline all within easy reach. A bridleway opposite the property provides further access making Primrose Farm ideally placed to enjoy everything this highly regarded coastal location has to offer.

SITUATION


Wiveton is a wonderfully unspoilt village that sits on the opposite side of the River Glaven from Cley, which was until a century and a half ago a tidal estuary, and both places were ports with harbour frontage. Today the village benefits from the popular Wiveton Bell gastro pub and a fine parish church dating to the fifteenth when the port was most prosperous.

Excellent local facilities are also available within walking distance in the neighbouring villages of Cley-next-the-Sea and in Blakeney, the latter of which is a year-round lively village, as well as a holiday destination offering a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, a fine parish church, tennis courts, playing field and a primary school.

North Norfolk and the region enjoys everything on offer from locally sourced butchers, fishmongers and farmers markets to artisan bakers, cool coffee shops, restaurants, delicatessens, up-market farm shops and art galleries.

This is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a Conservation Area and offers easy access to the saltmarshes and Blakeney Point with many ways of whiling away leisure hours including sailing, seal trips, cycling, golf, amazing coastal walking and fine beaches. The Cley marshes wildlife reserve dates from 1926 and makes this one of the best places for spectacular birdwatching.

Just four miles to the south is the Georgian market town of Holt, renowned for its attractive street frontages and for its wide and eclectic range of independent shops. Holt is also home to Gresham’s pre-prep, prep and senior schools, founded in 1555.
