Maples is an elegant three-storey Victorian home set in the heart of The Avenues, a characterful part of town known for its sense of space, architectural charm and period proportions.

Currently operating as a successful holiday let, the property offers six bedrooms and six bathrooms, providing exceptional flexibility for guests or family living. The ground floor has been thoughtfully opened up to create a spacious kitchen–dining hub - a natural focal point of the home where cooking, conversation and entertaining come together with ease.

Outside, off-street parking to the front adds everyday convenience, while the south-facing courtyard garden to the rear offers a sunny and sheltered space to relax. Just a short distance from the beach and High Street, Maples presents a rare opportunity - a substantial family home in a sought-after setting, or a ready-made business available as a going concern.

Hunstanton
Who wouldn’t want a place by the sea? Hunstanton, a traditional, unspoilt coastal town, is perfect for a beach walk and a fish and chip supper. For residents, this Victorian gem offers even more.

Founded in 1846 by Henry Le Strange as a Victorian Gothic bathing resort, Hunstanton thrived with the railway from King’s Lynn, becoming a top day-trip destination. Today, holidaymakers flock to Searles Leisure Resort, enjoy boat trips on the Wash Monster, fairground rides, and traditional arcades. The Princess Theatre, renamed in the 80s for Lady Diana Spencer, hosts live performances, films, and seasonal pantos. Golf enthusiasts can play mini-golf, pitch & putt, and the renowned Links course in Old Hunstanton.

Facing west across The Wash, “Sunny Hunny” is famous for its sunsets. Summer evenings are perfect for watching the sun set from the green, beach, or Victorian squares. Impressive Victorian and Edwardian properties line these squares, alongside contemporary homes, apartments, and senior living accommodations. Education options include a primary and secondary school (Smithdon High, a Grade II listed building), and Glebe House School, a co-educational prep school. Amenities feature a gp surgery, post office, leisure pool, and gym at The Oasis, overlooking the sea.

Local shopping includes Tesco, Sainsbury’s, and a Lidl nearby in Heacham, along with a fantastic local greengrocer and award-winning deli. Dining options range from full English breakfasts to afternoon tea at Berni Beans and relaxing at wine bar Chives.

Hunstanton attracts young families, professionals, and retirees seeking a slower pace of life. Discover why this charming town is the perfect coastal retreat.
