Outside

Little Barwick is located along Bircham Road with the advantage of a large shingled private drive (not gated) with ample parking space at the front.

The substantial house is situated in good-sized gardens surrounding the house which are mainly lawned and have been well-maintained with an abundance of shrubs and plants. There is a gate from the front drive leading to the gardens which are enclosed by a wire fence, making it small child-proof, but not necessarily dog proof!)
There is a south facing charming garden with several different areas to explore and enjoy, including brick steps to one area.

At the back of the house is a large paved terrace with garden furniture and a charcoal barbecue. The lovely south garden overlooks open countryside.

The Duck Inn and a children's playground are both just under a mile away, with the unspoilt North Norfolk coast only 10mins drive away.
