About this property
A charming, pet friendly cottage, in the beautiful coastal village of Heacham.
Built in 1876 and full of original period features, Moongazer is a pretty, two bedroom Carstone cottage, situated in the enchanting Norfolk village of Heacham. This beautifully presented cottage is full of character, with exposed beams, stone walls and original floorboards. It is ideal for families, friends, or couples, who are wishing for a relaxing coastal break. It is within walking distance of the beach as well as a wide variety of the village amenities (shops, pubs, restaurants). The famous Norfolk Lavender Farm is also within walking distance, along with so many other local attractions. Enjoy the miles of sandy beaches and for bird watchers, visit the R.S.P.B coastal nature reserves at Snettisham and Titchwell. The Victorian seaside town of Hunstanton is just 2 miles away and Sandringham House and Gardens only 5 miles. Conveniently, the village is on the coastal bus route too. There are so many wonderful places to explore!
Inside the cottage, is a cosy living room with a wood burning stove, a spacious kitchen with dining area, a utility area with washing machine and a downstairs bathroom, with a full size bath and rainfall shower. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms, as well as a WC. One bedroom has a double bed and a quaint window seat- to watch the world go by. The second bedroom includes twin full size single beds, suitable for both adults and children, with a skylight- just perfect for moon gazing!
Moongazer cottage is set back off the road with an enclosed gravelled area to the front of the house. On street parking is available opposite the cottage. The rear garden is fully enclosed and is the ideal spot for relaxing, after a day of exploring.
A peaceful, relaxing and comfortable cottage, within walking distance to the beautiful beach.
