Set on about 0.6 acres on the edge of Wortwell, this period cottage blends rural charm with family-sized space. The house offers a versatile layout with three reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room, a useful utility and five possible bedrooms served by two bathrooms — useful for growing families or multi-generational living.
The plot includes a rear paddock and almost 800 sqft of outbuildings (stms), plus a newly built double cart lodge for covered parking. Solar panels on the outbuilding roof contribute to running-cost savings, and the property benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing installed since 2002.
Buyers should note a few material points: the cottage shares a small flying freehold with the adjoining property and there are recorded historical structural works from 1996 (remedial works documented). The paddock lies partly within the managed water channel flood plain and the house has solid brick walls likely without modern cavity insulation — the EPC is D. The overall accommodation and outbuildings, however, present clear potential for refurbishment, home working conversion or annexe creation subject to consents.
This home will suit families seeking village life in the Waveney Valley: good primary and secondary schools are nearby, broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the large garden and paddock offer space for children, pets or small-scale equestrian use. Viewings will reveal the period features and the flexible potential to modernise to personal taste.
