About this property

Stunning New Property with Roof Terrace and Amazing Views

NB - Covid-19. Should bookings have to be cancelled due to Covid-19, a 100% refund will be issued, regardless of the our normal Terms and Conditions.

Completed in March 2020, Freeholders is a unique new property with far-reaching views. Living accommodation is on the first floor and has beautiful oak flooring throughout. The open plan living/dining/kitchen area has a wall of windows overlooking the creek. A large dining table, huge squishy sofa and well-equipped kitchen with a fully controllable Electrickit Aga, make this a comfortable and convivial space. The two bedrooms have kingsized beds and original features. The bedroom at the front of the house has a drop down window allowing guests to lounge in bed and admire the marshes. The first floor bathroom has a bath with shower and downstairs there is an additional shower room. A very special feature of this property is the secluded roof terrace with 360 degree views, furniture for lounging and dining, and a dumbwaiter to bring food and drink from the kitchen. There is a car parking space opposite the house.

NB If you need more beds (up to 6) and would like to bring your canine companion on holiday, have a look at our next-door property, Hampden House, which has a lovely terrace overlooking the creek. Homeaway listing 6518975.

UPDATE - Freeholders has just won a commendation in the American Institute of Architects awards for 2021:
AIA UK 2021 Virtual Design Awards Gala
…Next is special commendation in the Professional Practice Small Projects category.
Jane Duncan - Judge:
“I am given the great and wonderful task of giving a special commendation in the professional practice small projects category and that commendation goes to Freeholders by Mole Architects. This is a low-key and fantastically contextual design for a house which is so beautifully detailed and so quiet you could actually walk by it without noticing it was there, but it shows masterful craftsmanship, a wonderful and exquisitely flowing design for the plan and the section on a really awkward site. The whole jury was knocked out in particular by the living space and that absolutely brilliantly framed view - to die for and the ceiling height which really just set it off - we all just wanted to live there! Congratulations!”
Ian Bramwell - Mole Architects:
“Well thank you so much it's a real honour to accept this award from the Institute for
Freeholders. Freeholders was a wonderful project to be involved in and is located in such an exceptional site on the waterfront in Wells-Next-The-Sea, in the middle of a conservation area. Of course projects like this just don't happen without exceptional clients and Jon and Jane had vision, aspiration and ambition to produce something out of the ordinary and they really pushed us to design and deliver a building that exceeded their expectations - so thank you Jon and Jane.

An absolutely outstanding place. The accommodation was wonderful, beds comfy, kitchen really well stocked with plenty of crockery etc.,. unlike some places that just give you 4 cups, 4 plates etc.. then you are forever washing or putting the dishwasher on!Of course the most outstanding feature is the view! Just spectacular. A wonderful spot as it is close to Wells but not in the middle - so a quieter area right on coastal path with walks both ways.The accommodation is also spotlessly clean - we usually end up leaving some places cleaner that we found that - but no way could we do that here - outstandingly clean.We will definitely hope to return here.Thankyou for a wonderful stay
Just stunning - a good selection of a comfy sofa and some chairs too - perfect
What a view to wake up to! I didn't bother with the blinds so I could see the view on waking up!

Stunning place with amazing views

Fantastic property with amazing views over the harbour and estuary. The house is stunning, very comfortable and situated within easy walking distance of local shops, restaurants and pubs. No entertainment needed as you can spend the whole day just watching the tide going in and out and all the activities not the water. Freeholders is a special place.

Fantastic Apartment

We fully agree with every positive thing that was said about Freeholders in other reviews. It more than met our (very high) expectations: being quiet, well equipped, comfortable, within walking distance of everything we needed and with responsive hosts. Plus Wells is wonderful. We are planning to come again in the warmer weather for longer.

Fabulous

We loved the property and its design style and furnishings. It was in a great location and the views were amazing. We enjoyed a day of gales and rain reading overlooking the changing estuary tides out to sea and also an evening on the roof terrace with fish'n'chips and prossecco in the sun with views over the water. What a find.

Sea views!

We stayed for three nights. This is a very special property and we enjoyed our stay very much. It's a beautifully thought out and well equipped building but the best thing for me were the ever changing views of the creek. It was wonderful to see so many special birds from the magnificent picture windows. The location was also perfect as it is on the North Norfolk coastal path and also within easy walking distance to all the amenities of Wells-next-the-sea. We were sad to leave!

Short break

Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a North Norfolk getaway- you can park the car and not be use it will until you leave due to convenience of shops, pubs, restaurants and walks (to Marshes in one direction and Holkham in the other). Don’t worry about the weather ….it won’t matter when you are here. Hope gho recommend

Quickly feels likes home

We had a much needed relaxing stay at this very modern, yet comfortable and relaxing property. We were aided by fantastically warm weather, although the view would have been just as good with a storm raging at us through the picture window. I'd be happy here anytime of year. We wern't there long enough to make use of all of the items in the superbly equipped kitchen. Wells is supplied with amazing shops to get all your fresh produce too. We hope to come again.

About the host

Hosted by Jane Chick

Host profile image
As a child, my mum brother and I would often spend the whole 6-week summer holiday in a tent on the campsite at Wells. We played in the woods and on the beach with an ever-changing cast of children from the campsite. It has always been a very special place for me and I have returned throughout my adult life. There is nowhere in the world I rather spend my holidays.

Why they chose this property

When the opportunity to build a new property arose, we couldn't resist. We wanted to build something unique but that would also fit in and enhance, rather than detract from, the surroundings. Despite many problems, restrictions and set backs we persevered - and we are so thrilled with the end result. The property was completed in March 2020

What makes this property unique

Living accommodation is on the first floor because East End is in a flood zone. This means that the views are truly spectacular. It would be impossible to tire of simply gazing out f the window,
