3 WESTGATE HOUSE Market Place, Burnham Market, Norfolk, PE31 8HD AN ATTRACTIVE GEORGIAN RESIDENCE IN THE CENTRE OF BURNHAM MARKET Four Double Bedrooms Three Bathrooms Three Reception Rooms Beautifully Presented Garage Sought After Village Location Enclosed Private Rear Gardens High Quality Fittings Throughout Westgate House is a most attractive Georgian residence which given its position, commands spectacular views through its original large sash windows across Burnham Market s famous green, and the neighbouring St Marys Church. The current owners have recently carried out an extensive refurbishment, which delivers a stunning modern home, fused beautifully with the many period decorative and architectural features the property has retained since its construction. The property has been enhanced by the introduction of vintage sanitary ware within the bathrooms, light neutral décor to all walls, and new carpets and curtains throughout. The beautiful walled rear garden benefits greatly from its Southern orientation, and makes for a secluded haven away from the vibrancy and convenience of the village. The house has a large attached garage, which in this location is indeed a rarity.
