Cottage for sale in Holt Road, Gresham, Norwich NR11

The deceptively spacious period 3 bed cottage requires some updating but has enormous potential. It has off road parking, a courtyard garden and is being sold with no upward chain!

Area

Gresham is a small and pleasant rural village close to Holt in semi-rural wooded surroundings southwest of Sheringham and Cromer. It has an interesting church with a much-organised Victorian remodelled exterior. However, once inside, you find it whitewashed and free of any decoration. The church used to be Anglo Catholic but was 'persuaded' to be Protestant by a Consistory Court in the 1940's. The church, with its 14th century chancel, is a magnet for church explorers, because it contains one of the best of the East Anglian seven-sacrament fonts series. It is also the ancestral home of the Gresham family, founders of Gresham's School and the Royal Exchange.
