The epitome of coastal living.
Description
Bliss
Bliss Blakeney is one of the most outstanding coastal houses to have been offered to the open market in recent years. The property is the embodiment of modern coastal living.
The house was created about 5 years ago, to a carefully thought through design incorporating eco living with practicality, whilst always retaining its connection to the coastline. A major feature is the careful positioning of all glazing, maximising the views of Blakeney salt marshes and harbour wherever possible, with feature windows, glazed walls with sliding doors and roof lanterns. There are multiple openings onto balconies and terraces, making this very much a house that invites the outside in.
The space is exceptional, with open plan living coupled with more intimate areas, and a layout that creates an ease for either everyday living through to entertaining. At the heart of it all is the kitchen/living/dining area, with sliding glazed doors on each side which when open create a seamless continuation of space from the swimming pool courtyard, through the house to an outside terrace and dining area looking out over the coastline. Other rooms of particular note are the sea room, set between the ground and first floor, with a defining uninterrupted view out to the North Sea, the principal bedroom with his and hers dressing areas and bathrooms, and the cinema, in the ‘Everyman’ mould with acoustics walls, doors and ceiling. A wellbeing area provides a further glimpse into life at Bliss, with steam room, treatment area and gym with ‘Technogym’ equipment.
On a more practical level there is underfloor heating throughout, an air recovery system that regularly changes the air through the house, nest heating controls for the biomass heating system, an array of Gaggenhau appliances built into the kitchen, Italian laminate walls, Bisazza tiles and resin floors perfect for day to day coastal living. Bliss has successfully combined comfortable family living with fantastic entertaining areas, on a scale that provides space throughout yet with a warmth and calming atmosphere.
The Cabin & Hub
The Cabin is a self-contained wing to the main house, and is a creative lateral space to provide overflow accommodation to the main house, giving friends or family their own private quarters yet without compromising on style and scale.
Polished concrete floors run through all rooms, from the light and airy kitchen/living/dining area through to all four bedrooms, with en suite shower rooms and the principal bedroom providing fine views over to the village and prominent village church. All rooms have direct access to the private and enclosed gardens, with terraced entertaining area complete with kiln fireplace.
The Hub is a stand alone building at the southernmost point of the property, with a tucked away feel, and privacy from the main house and Cabin. Paths through landscaped gardens of nepeta and tall grasses, with wildlife pond, lead to glazed doors into an open plan area utilised as office space for the current owners' business interests. With a sitting area, meeting area and desk space this is the ultimate work from home area, with a further room that can be utilised in many ways not least as garaging, complete with shower room.
Outside
The grounds have been designed to blend in with the surrounding landscape. Panelled electric gates open to a driveway that sweeps up to the house, with plenty of parking and boat storage, and leading on to parking for The Cabin and up to The Hub.
The house was designed around the central courtyard, an exceptional entertaining space entirely enclosed and accessed from the house and wellbeing wing. Raised decking with outside kitchen area embraces the heated swimming pool, with the south to south-west aspect providing the ideal setting for outside enjoyment. Steps down to paved areas surrounding the house provide the seamless link into the living areas. To the front of the house is a large decked area, linked directly to the kitchen/living/dining area, with open views across the coastline. An expanse of lawn sweeps away from the house, with wild flower areas, tall grasses and clipped hedging providing form all year round. Within the grounds is a kitchen garden, ornamental pond, well established boundaries and the aforementioned private gardens to The Cabin and The Hub.
Location
Blakeney is a quintessential coastal village, with pretty flint cottages lining narrow streets leading down to the charming quay. The village has excellent public houses including The White Horse and Kings Arms, a thriving delicatessen, art galleries, The Moorings fish restaurant, the renowned Blakeney Hotel and the convenience of a village store.
The quay is popular for crabbing, and boating enthusiasts can enjoy good sailing out to Blakeney Point and round to Morston, with this Area of Oustanding Natural Beauty famous for its bird watching. There is a seemingly endless network of coastal paths following the edge of the marshes heading east and west of the village. Within the village there is a primary school, tennis club and other local community events. At other points along the coast there are a plethora of restaurants and pubs including the famous Wiveton Hall Café. To the east are good golf courses at Cromer and Sheringham.
The picturesque market town of Holt is about 4.5 miles and is renowned for its boutique shopping, Byford’s delicatessen, good restaurants and pubs and further specialist and everyday shopping. There are also banking and transport facilities within the town and private education at Greshams School, with Beeston Preparatory school further along the coast to the east.
