Nestled in a quiet corner plot in a residential zone, this unique and stylish property makes an unforgettable seaside retreat. Thoughtfully designed with excellent attention to detail throughout, this eco-friendly abode offers flexible accommodation for up to six guests, perfect for families or groups of friends. With open-plan living accommodation flowing out to a landscaped back garden, it’s ideal for relaxing and socialising with the attractions and beaches of Sheringham on your doorstep.

Designed in the shape of a human eye, the architect of this property created it with an eye on accessibility as well as the environment. So the property flows on a single level, with every room accessible from the circular hallway. Highlight of this home is the main ‘Grand Room’ with a contemporary fitted kitchen, family dining table, and a large corner sofa and entertainment centre. Bi-fold doors open onto the southwest-facing garden, where a patio table and barbeque invite guests to dine alfresco, or simply relax in the afternoon sun. Round off your day by sinking into the deep bathtub, before getting a relaxing night’s sleep in one of three bedrooms.

The traditional seaside resort of Sheringham is a superb base for exploring the North Norfolk Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Within a mile of the property, you’ll find a sandy beach, museums, a theatre, a bustling town centre, and a heritage railway station where you can catch the Poppy Line steam train to the Georgian town of Holt (6 miles). Walkers can follow the five-mile coastal path to Cromer or amble around Sheringham Park, a landscaped park with wonderful coastal views. Along the coast is the popular town of Wells-next-the-Sea (17 miles) with walking trails, wildlife reserves and a delicious local food scene.

Very quiet area but still close to all the shops in Sheringham and good for the railway.

The Eye provided the perfect place for our three generation family holiday. It was a great holiday house with a fabulous design, plenty of space, very clean, excellently equipped with a lovely garden. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to the town, beach and a supermarket. However, it was away from the hustle and bustle and lovely and Read morequiet. We loved it and would not hesitate to return. Hide
