Summary - 5, Birds Corner, Shipdham IP25 7NH
3 bed 1 bath Detached
Renovated character cottage with modern systems, private garden and off-street parking.
Three-bedroom detached cottage retaining original character features
Set in the small hamlet of Bird’s Corner, this attractive three-bedroom detached cottage blends period character with recent practical upgrades. Exposed beams, a brick-surround log burner and well-proportioned reception rooms give genuine cottage charm, while a stylish fitted kitchen, separate utility and a four-piece bathroom meet modern family needs.
The current owners have carried out notable improvements: new flooring, an updated fuse, a WiFi-enabled central heating and hot water control, and a new oil combi boiler. Environmentally useful additions include solar panels that assist with hot water and a water filtration system, helping to reduce running costs. Double glazing and external insulation on the solid brick walls improve comfort.
Outside, the property sits on a decent plot with a shingle driveway providing off-street parking and a thoughtfully landscaped split-level rear garden with a powered timber shed and secluded seating areas. The village location offers quiet rural living with local amenities and good primary and secondary schools within easy reach.
Buyers should note material facts: the home is heated by an oil-fired boiler (not a community supply), broadband speeds in the area are very slow, and the setting is a small hamlet which may suit those seeking rural privacy rather than fast urban connectivity. Overall this is a newly renovated cottage for buyers who value character and sensible modernisation.
