With ivy trailing across its red-brick exterior and a plant-filled front yard, the outside of this 1850s cottage alone is likely to charm you and your family. Step inside, and you'll find yourselves in a cosy living room complete with a huge original exposed-brick fireplace, as well as plenty of board games and books to keep you occupied. Spend leisurely mornings enjoying breakfasts in the delightful summer house and while away warm evenings over a meal cooked from Norfolk produce on the barbecue. What's more, this home is in the historic market town of Aylsham, situated beside the River Bure, where you'll find a twice-weekly market and an attractive town centre. There are a range of shops and a pub just over a five-minute stroll away. If you want to explore further afield, the Norfolk Broads is around twenty-five minutes in the car. Alternatively, drive to Cromer or Mundesley on the Norfolk coast in about twenty minutes, while Blickling Hall, the former home of Anne Boleyn, is thirty minutes away.
