Blending the charm of a cottage-style chalet with the flexibility of modern living, this property is well suited to families, downsizers or those seeking a countryside base with space to grow.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged to provide four double bedrooms, offering plenty of room for family life or visiting guests. Two of the bedrooms are located on the ground floor alongside a family bathroom, while the first floor provides further bedroom space with its own shower room - ideal for creating a private principal suite or an independent living area.

Mature gardens create a natural backdrop and provide plenty of scope for outdoor enjoyment - whether gardening, entertaining or simply relaxing in the peaceful surroundings. A double garage and ample driveway parking further enhance the practicality of the property.

Brisley itself is a well-regarded village with a strong community feel, offering a popular local pub, primary school and easy access to the market towns of Dereham and Fakenham, as well as routes towards the North Norfolk coast.

With its flexible layout, generous plot and desirable location, Crest Bungalow is a chain-free property which can adapt to many different needs, offering a lifestyle combining village living with space, comfort and opportunity.

BRISLEY
Brisley is a beautiful and unspoilt village situated between the two market towns of Fakenham and Dereham which offer an excellent selection of supermarkets, shops and schooling. Brisley is well known for its surrounding countryside and the renovated award winning Brisley Bell Inn which has a first-rate menu and a warm welcome which has earned it multiple awards.

Brisley has a village hall and a well-respected Primary School and is also in the catchment area of Litcham High School which is one of the best Secondary Schools in the area. The common is owned by the village and is one of the largest in the UK, stretching to over 200 acres and includes the active village cricket ground with men’s and women’s teams. In recent years an area of amenity land has been transformed to create a woodland of native British trees to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee, desirable allotment plots, a children’s play area, football pitch and fitness trail. The area is a delight for residents and visitors to use for walks and picnics.

Nestled in the Brecklands, in the heart of the county, Dereham is a classic country market town and an architectural haven with plenty of Georgian gems set on generous plots, blended with more recent developments. With good local schools, a leisure centre and golf course, Dereham and its surrounding villages are a fantastic spot to enjoy the best of Norfolk country living with easy commuting access to Norwich and the coast at Wells-next-the-Sea, just 22 miles away. Come discover a Norfolk gem.

Within Fakenham there are plenty of places to eat in including pubs, cafés and restaurants, as well as a four screen cinema, garden centre and the Gallows Sports Centre with golf, squash, tennis, archery, rifle shooting and bowls.
