Those looking for an escape to the North Norfolk countryside will love the idyllic setting and laid-back lifestyle offered here. This recently renovated home has plenty of space for large groups and boasts all-contemporary appliances and tasteful furnishings for seamless modern living. Exposed flint feature walls, wood floors and the neutral colour palette will continuously ground you in this beautiful landscape. Thanks to the open-plan layout, the home lends itself well to hosting and socialising. While some cook in the sleek kitchen, others can chit chat at the breakfast bar or on the soft sofas in the living room. Best of all, this home affords expansive rural views from every angle, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling corner windows. But our favourite aspect of this home is the sprawling back garden, beckoning family group lawn games and sundown drinks on the chill-out seating area. Peacefully positioned in the picturesque village of Langham, you’re a twenty-five-minute drive from the coast and an even shorter walk from the newly refurbished village pub – we hear their fish and chips is excellent.
