Baconsthorpe, Norfolk

Description:

Charming and unique home in private village setting, close to the Georgian town of Holt and the North Norfolk coastline. Description Saxton House comprises a principal period home that has been meticulously renovated and remodelled, with a detached annexe/holiday cottage and double garage, within private and mature grounds. The house has evolved under the current custodianship, to create the most wonderful village home that is impressive and inspiring in equal measure. The remodelling has successfully established the look and feel of a 16th century farmhouse, with aesthetically pleasing flint work in lime mortar, leaded windows with hand made glass and Portland limestone mullions, stained glass windows, oak fascias, external shutters, iron ties, stone work and distinct oak door, a replica of a medieval door with dragons hand carvings. Whilst some elements have been reclaimed, particularly internally, the exterior materials have been bespoke commissions, resulting in a house of excellent condition. The roof has been rebuilt, with reclaimed plain terracotta tiles installed, chimneys and new zinc gutterings installed. A defining feature was added in 2019/2021, in the form of a barn attached to the western gable of the house, in a period style, with a glazed link through to the main house. This adds a considerable living space to enjoy. The original Welsh oak cruck framed house from XIV century extended in XVII century was dismantled and re erected on the site, perpendicular to the house as a barn/extension structure. With double height vaulted ceiling, charming reclaimed herringbone brick work, stained glass windows and doors, reclaimed beams and plenty of south west facing glazing, the room of 11m x 4.8m has huge visual and atmospheric impact. It is also a practical space, with kitchen/dining area and sitting space, absorbing many different lifestyles, and complete with a mezzanine level bedroom with bathroom underneath featuring a large stone bath.
