3 THE RETREAT Main Road, Thornham, Norfolk, PE36 6LX A STUNNING NEW DETACHED HOME IN A SOUGHT AFTER COASTAL VILLAGE Five Bedrooms Four Bathrooms Open Plan Living Area Bespoke Handbuilt Kitchen High Specification Finish Off-Road Parking Coastal Views Enclosed Rear Garden Morning and Evening Terraces The Retreat is extremely deceptive from the front; it is only when you start to explore the property internally that you soon realise that this isn t your typical new home. There are multiple levels throughout the property which flow with the gradient of the plot, and the inset LED down lights which light the way tempt you in to explore the house. Although there are lots of rooms there is an open plan feel, with each room on the ground level leading to another which provides a sense of light and space and creates a very social environment. The outside space blends seamlessly with the inside; there are bi-folding doors to east and south of the open plan kitchen/dining room, which is the hub of the house. A morning terrace is ideal for enjoying breakfast outside in the summer months, and the bi-folding doors to the rear lead to a sheltered south facing terrace and on to the lawn; with the doors open you really get a sense that the garden spaces become a part of the house. There are also very practical elements on the ground floor, with a utility room/boot room at the front of the house with its own entrance door directly from the parking area, and a large shower room/wet room close to the entrance perfect for washing sandy feet and paws after a day at the beach. Upstairs is also set over many different levels, and is just as unique as the ground floor; vaulted ceilings with glass roof panes flood the landing areas with natural light. There are five double bedrooms and three bathrooms, including the very impressive master bedroom suite which would not look out of place in a boutique 5 star hotel. It is incredibly private and perfect to hide away from the world a real retreat! The garden has been professionally landscaped and designed with morning and afternoon terraces to the east and south - perfect for entertaining. There is a raised decked area, raised planted shrub and flower beds. Inset lighting in the patio areas, spot lighting in gardens and up and down lighters fitted to the house really make the gardens and house come alive at night. The Retreat really is an individual, one of a kind home that must be seen to be fully appreciated. Burnham Market Office burnham@sowerbys.com
