Castle Acre in west Norfolk might be home to beautiful castle ruins and one of England's largest and best-preserved monastic sites, but this charming mid-terrace cottage, down a quiet country lane, is totally modern.

Currently on the market with Sowerbys at a guide price of £200,000, the property has been recently renovated and now offers gorgeous, contemporary-style interiors and an unexpectedly open-plan layout.

On the ground floor, there is a modern kitchen fitted with traditional wooden surfaces and a good range of integrated appliances.

In the adjoining living area, which features a brick surround fireplace with an eye-catching oak beam mantle, there is a cosy wood-burning stove and its neutral interiors create a light and airy feel.

Two well-proportioned bedrooms can be found upstairs and the bathroom is downstairs, towards the back of the house.

Off-road parking is also available at the property, which is just around the corner from the idyllic St James Green.
