Docking, Norfolk
Only 15 minutes from the coast, in a conservation area, is a pretty cottage with roses growing around the pitched porch. In fact, roses are a theme with the motif repeated in several stained-glass windows. The five-bedroom home was once a pub with 1795 carved into a small arch of exposed brick below timber beams in one of the bedrooms. There’s a domed, tiled wet room on the ground floor and a cellar. The garden, bursting with shrubs, wraps around one side of the house with a courtyard area, seating and space for several cars. £599,950. Bedfords, 01328 730 500
