Houses At Barley Courtyard, Eastgate Street, Holme-Next-The-Sea PE36

Malt house & granary house

There is something particularly appealing about a small collection of homes where individuality and a sense of place have been given equal consideration. At Barley Courtyard in Holme-next-the-Sea, just five thoughtfully designed properties come together around an attractive shared setting.

Created by local, family-run Millthorne Developments, the architecture draws naturally upon its North Norfolk surroundings. Traditional red brick elevations and pantile roofs give the homes an established character, while the two house types offer notably different interpretations of modern coastal living. Throughout, the emphasis is on craftsmanship, quality of finish and homes designed to sit comfortably within this special village.

The Malt House – Plots 2 & 3 – offers a particularly well-balanced arrangement, with each home linked to its neighbour only by the garage, allowing the accommodation itself to remain detached. At the heart of the ground floor is a generous kitchen and dining area, centred around an island and opening directly onto the garden. A separate sitting room provides somewhere quieter to retreat to, while a utility room, cloakroom and integral garage bring useful practicality to everyday life.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms make good use of the first floor. The principal bedroom has its own en-suite shower room, complemented by a family bathroom serving bedrooms two and three. It is an uncomplicated and considered layout, particularly suited to those who appreciate clearly defined spaces while retaining a sociable heart to the home.

Granary House – Plot 4 – provides a different proposition, with its three bedrooms arranged across both floors and an emphasis on flexibility. The generous kitchen incorporates a central island and dedicated seating area, while the separate sitting room creates another distinct living space. A utility room and cloakroom complete the practical ground-floor arrangement.

A particular feature of Granary House is its ground-floor bedroom with en-suite shower room, offering genuine versatility for family, guests or those who value bedroom accommodation at entrance level. Upstairs are two further bedrooms, including the principal bedroom with its own en-suite and built-in storage, together with a separate bathroom. It is a layout capable of adapting comfortably as requirements change over time.

While The Malt House and Granary House offer two different ways of living, they share the qualities that define Barley Courtyard: Traditional architecture, modern comfort and the intimacy of a development comprising just five homes. The choice is therefore less about compromise and more about selecting the arrangement that best suits how you want to live.

For those looking to make North Norfolk their home, the current availability at Barley Courtyard presents a rare opportunity to choose between two distinctive three-bedroom designs – The Malt House or Granary House – each created to enjoy coastal village life throughout the seasons.

Holme-next-the-sea

A very sought after coastal village, Holme-next-the-Sea has a huge expanse of beach and marshes.

This area makes this quiet village perfect for bird-watching. An ancient ring of timbers discovered on Holme beach after a very low tide is believed to be a ritual burial site dating from Druid times. The Seahenge, as it is known, has been removed for conservation and is exhibited at Lynn Museum in King’s Lynn.

The village is between Old Hunstanton and Thornham on the north Norfolk coast and is a short drive to the amenities in Hunstanton.

Hunstanton was established in 1846 by Henry Le Strange as a bathing resort designed in a Victorian Gothic style, the esteemed townsman wisely led the development of a railway from King’s Lynn to enable day-trippers to reach the ‘new town’ – a canny investment as the route was later to become the most profitable in the country.

Holidaymakers still Mecca to Hunstanton, many staying at Searles Leisure Resort which opened as a caravan park in 1936. Enjoy an afternoon on the water with a boat trip on its Wash Monster, ride the carousel at the fairground or keep it traditional and feed the penny slots at the arcades. The town’s Princess Theatre, renamed in the 80s in honour of Lady Diana Spencer, features a year-round programme of live performances, film screenings plus a seasonal panto. Golfers of all ages can try their hand with a mini golf course and pitch and putt on the cliff-top, plus a renowned Links course in neighbouring Old Hunstanton.
