Features and description
- Freehold
Hollywell Cottage is a charming detached period cottage situated in a tucked away location right in the heart of the popular north Norfolk village of Docking. There is spacious flexible family sized accommodation comprising a kitchen with a separate utility and cloakroom, dining room, sitting room, study and a ground floor bedroom which could instead provide another reception room. Upstairs, a spacious split level landing leads to 3 further bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room.
The property still retains many attractive period features such as exposed ceiling beams, a fireplace in the sitting room housing a wood burning stove, cast iron fireplaces in several of the other rooms and arched display recesses. Further benefits include UPVC double glazed windows and doors in the main and oil-fired central heating.
Outside, there is driveway parking and a beautifully landscaped garden which the cottage wraps around with a useful good sized brick built workshop/store. The former garage has been converted to provide an artist's studio but also lends itself to conversion to other uses, subject to the necessary permissions.
Being only 4 miles from the coast at Brancaster, all of this combines to make Hollywell Cottage an ideal second home with holiday lettings potential or, as its current use, a much loved family home.
Docking is a thriving community with good amenities including a primary school, doctors surgery, village hall hosting a wide range of activities for all age groups, village stores/Post Office, public house and a fish and chip shop. There is also a popular market every Wednesday selling the best of local produce.
Its location is ideal for both families living in the area or visitors to the North Norfolk Coast with the beautiful beach at Brancaster only 4 miles away. 12 miles to the south east lies the market town of Fakenham with schools, supermarkets and other high street stores whilst 6 miles to the north, Burnham Market provides shopping for the more discerning customer with a range of delicatessens, up market clothes shops and galleries.
Mains water, mains drainage and mains electricity. Oil-fired central heating to radiators. EPC Rating Band F.
