A charming three-bedroom semi-detached cottage set on the peaceful edge of a private village, offering about 900 sq ft of well-proportioned living space and large gardens that back onto meadowland and woodland. The ground floor has a cosy sitting room with a wood-burning stove, a dual-aspect kitchen/dining room, utility and cloakroom; three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation.
This home requires updating and renovation, which creates scope to modernise interiors, improve insulation (solid brick walls assumed uninsulated) and upgrade services. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler to radiators and broadband speeds are very slow — practical considerations for anyone working from home or seeking low-running-cost systems.
Outside the plot is a strong selling point: substantial lawns, mature trees, outbuildings and allocated parking, with wonderful rural outlooks. The property is offered freehold and chain free, but note there is an annual maintenance/service charge of £450 for communal/private road upkeep and covenants apply within the village.
For a family or countryside buyer seeking character and potential, this cottage represents a rare opportunity to create a comfortable, individual home in a tranquil Brecks setting, a short drive from Thetford and within reasonable reach of Bury St Edmunds.
