"This Grade II Listed Cottage, is delightfully located in the popular coastal village of Stiffkey."
The Property
Valley Cottage is a pretty Grade II Listed property, much loved by its owner, who opens the door and breathes out every visit. With dogs in tow, there are amazing walks over the marsh. Over the bridges, there is a feeling of getting away from everything, seeking the peace and solitude the space provides. Then, on the walk back home, a stop-off at The Stores is a must-do to join the popular coffee hour.
The accommodation is beautifully presented and includes a modernised, contemporary kitchen where the space allows entertaining family and friends. If relaxation is on your list, enjoy the comfortable sitting room with its contemporary replacement doors that open onto the pretty landscaped garden.
The three bedrooms are served by a modernised bathroom with a free standing bath that overlooks the woodland upwards of the river valley, where the barn owls fly. Lie back in the bath and listen to the swifts on the wing, identified by their familiar screeching. The third bedroom includes a contemporary fitted sliding dormer window, allowing our vendor to utilise the space as a study while keeping a watchful eye on the pretty water meadow view.
Externally
Our vendor has enjoyed looking out from every large window, where each one provides a different picture. It’s not difficult to understand Valley Cottage is a much-loved sanctuary, bringing such pleasure to every visit. It is time to move on and seek a new custodian to enjoy and create their own story in this solid cottage that has brought so much joy…

Description
Local Information
Stiffkey, located between Wells and Blakeney, is one of the most picturesque villages on the north Norfolk coast. The river Stiffkey flowing west to east has carved a valley creating properties with stunning views and a short walk to the tidal marshes. The village is famous for its ‘Stewkey Blues’, a local blue cockle. It has a good pub, the Red Lion, with real ale and good food. There’s also a general store and newsagents. The village is very well placed for the North Norfolk Coast. There is excellent sailing nearby, and superb coastal walks.
Just 4 miles away is the popular seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea, which is set behind a small harbour on the beautiful North Norfolk Coast – its beach was voted The Best British Beach of the Year 2016 by The Times. The town has a maze of narrow streets, old alleys and yards, filled with shops, pubs and cafes and there are many listed and impressive Georgian and Victorian buildings. The town has a doctors’ surgery, library, community hall and primary and secondary schools, and, for those that enjoy the water a public house on a boat.
Wells-next-the-Sea is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty at the heart of the Heritage Coast between Hunstanton and Weybourne. The beautiful sandy beach, with its pine trees, sand dunes and colourful beach huts, can be reached by a pleasant walk, car or alternatively you could just enjoy the Quay with its active fishing fleet and sailing club. Both Wells-next-the-Sea and Holkham Woods are designated Nature Reserves, and walkers and birdwatchers enjoy the North Norfolk Coastal Path, creeks and marshes.
