This two-bedroom detached period cottage blends authentic 18th-century character with recent, sympathetic refurbishment. Exposed beams, hardwood sash windows and a wood-burning stove give the house a warm, traditional feel while the kitchen, bathroom and services have been updated for modern living. Part underfloor heating adds comfort on the ground floor.
The property sits on an unusually deep, south-facing plot of about 60 metres, rare for a central town location. A gated gravel driveway provides generous off-street parking, and a private, part-walled rear garden offers a sunny, sheltered outdoor space—ideal for family life or entertaining. There is an external utility room for additional storage and practicality.
Practical considerations: the house has solid brick walls built before 1900 and is assumed to have no cavity wall insulation, and the EPC is grade D. There is potential to extend, subject to planning permission. Buyers should commission their own surveys and service checks to confirm insulation, wiring and structural condition.
Located in the heart of Fakenham, the cottage is a short walk from shops, weekly market, schools rated Good and local amenities including the town’s racecourse. The property is freehold, in a low-crime, affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — a strong combination for family purchasers seeking a central, character home with garden and parking.
