Owl Cottage

About this home

An attractive modern version of a traditional brick and flint semi-detached cottage that looks perfectly at home in this pretty rural setting in the quietly popular village of Warham, sitting just up the road from its much lauded village pub, frequented by locals and visitors alike.

On entering the cottage, you are appropriately welcomed by a stunning artwork on the hallway wall of an owl mid flight.

From here a door opens to an open-plan L-shaped living space, with a modern country-style fitted kitchen area that expands into an inviting dining area set beside a large wood burning stove and then out into a light-filled relaxing sitting room, overseen by a fine stag print by Norfolk artist Lucy Boydell.

The decor is cool and calm, with a Scandi vibe and, altogether, makes for a very conducive sociable space. In the sitting room a wall of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors open to a large outdoor patio, sitting above the landscaped garden area below and extending a view across the garden wall to a bucolic scene of open landscape beyond.

A view to much admire from the comfort of one of the easy armchairs to be found, inside and out, depending on the time of year – you could well spot an owl quartering the fields.

Back at the entrance hallway a staircase leads up to the first floor, where you will find three bedrooms – a king-size, a twin and a single room – two with deep blue feature walls, and all beds bedecked with cushions and blankets, continuing the cosy hygge theme, and sharing use of a family bathroom, also on this floor.

A cloakroom on the ground floor, next door to a useful utility/boot room area at the back of the hallway is the finishing touch.
