About this property

DESCRIPTION The Cottage was acquired in 2016 in need of complete renovation and requiring a great deal of thought and vision from the current vendors to transform the residence into something very special. The attraction to this lovely home was firstly the position, being tucked away within a delightful rural pocket of South Norfolk with its fine views, particularly over the gardens and grounds which extend to almost 1.7 acres and importantly face to the south. The Cottage stands proud, being well set back from the minor road having been completed in 2021, built of traditional brick elevations under a plain clay tile and slate roof, together with a triple bay traditionally built garage block, with a slate roof and accommodation above. The whole is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a home which is ready for immediate occupation in a lovely south Norfolk spot.

The Cottage is approached into a spacious hall enjoying access to the cloakroom with additional storage via an inner hall, and the principal ground floor rooms. The dual aspect sitting room with its feature fireplace is a super space and French doors lead out onto the terrace and gardens. The hub of the home is the wonderful 33ft kitchen/family room with dual aspect sliding doors enjoying seamless access into the gardens. The kitchen itself features an island together with a range of integrated appliances and access into the utility room and formal dining room via double doors.

On the first floor there are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom positioned off a light and airy landing. The principal bedroom and guest bedroom both feature en-suite shower rooms. Fitted wardrobes remain a key feature to the principal bedroom. 

The Cottage enjoys further accommodation externally with the addition of a brick and timber triple garage with three separate electric doors. A staircase at the side leads up to the studio/playroom/study with three Velux windows offering plenty of natural light and there is a toilet, sink and room for a shower. This room has further potential and could be used to derive an income subject to the necessary planning consents. There is parking for a number of vehicles on the driveway. 

The attic has planning permission in place, granted in November 2023 for the addition of two further bedrooms and two en-suite shower rooms. Attic style trusses have already been installed. The planning permission can be found via South Norfolk Council, reference number 2023/2883 and is valid for three years.

The gardens are mainly laid to lawn and are enclosed via post and rail fencing which border the house beautifully. A five-bar gate leads into the main paddock which makes up the remaining grounds, all enclosed by mature hedging. The whole is offered with no onward chain.
