Bakers House, Wells Next Sea | House in Norfolk
4 Bedroom House in Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk
A superbly appointed, very special 17th Century 4 bedroom holiday home in the popular North Norfolk seaside town of Wells next Sea, winner of the UKs best beach 2016 in the Sunday times. The house is comfortable and stylish accommodation for ten+ and perfectly positioned for the quayside, shopping on Staithe street and gourmet meals on the historic Butlands. It is furnished and decorated throughout in a fresh, contemporary style, with a light and airy feel to all the rooms. Dogs very welcome.
We have lovingly renovated Bakers House to create a fabulous family home. The kitchen/dining/family room is perfect for socialising with friends and family - the glazed canopy roof above the dining room is a striking feature that floods the inner areas with light. A spacious open plan kitchen area with adjoining living room allows friends and family to spend quality time together while preparing meals. Children can play on the rocking horse with you while you cook ! The 4 bedrooms and 4 WC/shower rooms comfortably accommodate 10 guests. The outside seating area and garden is pretty and spacious and has parking for 3 cars. The house is perfectly positioned within the heart of the bustling coastal town of Wells-Next-the-Sea next to the picturesque quay, and numerous pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops. From the spacious bedrooms you can glimpse the sea beyond Holkham and the boats floating in the harbour where the children also fish for crabs. The house was originally built as 2 separate houses for 2 families and it is rumoured as many as 36 people used to live there. A fisherman’s grave stone in the Wells cemetery says he lived in the house in 1695. In the loft some of the old ships beams still have the rope tied round them that was used for the ships rigging 400 years ago. We have named it Bakers House because as recently as 1970 it was a Bakery selling their wares through the kitchen window. We only finished renovating the house in February and are offering introductory pricing for the remainder of the year.
