The Location

Tucked away in the peaceful countryside of North Norfolk, River View enjoys a truly rural setting within the small village of Witton. It’s a place where open fields, quiet lanes, and fresh country air set the tone, while still being conveniently close to the lively market town of North Walsham, just a short drive, around a mile and a half away.

The property benefits from being close to some of North Norfolk’s most picturesque spots. Bacton Woods, with its beautiful walking and cycling trails, and the North Walsham and Dilham Canal, ideal for peaceful strolls and wildlife watching, are both within easy reach-less than half a mile from the house. It’s a wonderful setting for anyone who enjoys the outdoors, with countryside views all around and a real sense of space and tranquillity.

Although Witton itself is delightfully quiet, everything you could need day-to-day is nearby in North Walsham. The town offers a good mix of shops and services, including large supermarkets like Sainsbury’s, Waitrose, and Lidl, as well as independent stores, cafés, and restaurants. There are excellent schools covering all ages-including a sixth form college-plus doctor’s surgeries, leisure facilities, and a traditional weekly market that keeps the town centre bustling.

North Walsham’s railway station provides regular connections on the Norwich to Sheringham line, making it easy to reach the coast or the city without a car. For days out, the sandy beaches of the Norfolk coast are only about three miles away, while the Norfolk Broads National Park lies around ten miles to the south, offering endless opportunities for boating and exploring. The historic city of Norwich is roughly 17 miles distant, providing a wider choice of shopping, culture, and entertainment-all within comfortable reach.

Inside, the property has been thoughtfully extended to make the most of its position and natural light.

Outside, the property really shines. The gardens wrap around the house, offering lawned areas to the front, side, and rear, each with its own charm. The west-facing rear garden is a particularly special spot, completely private and perfectly positioned to enjoy the most beautiful sunsets that light up the sky and fields in shades of pink and gold.
