Forget Me Not Cottage is a Grade II listed thatched home at the heart of Feltwell, offering authentic period character and a large, well-planted cottage garden. Two reception rooms with exposed beams and working fireplaces create warm, versatile living spaces, while the well-equipped kitchen/diner and ground-floor bathroom make everyday life practical. The property is freehold and set within walking distance of village amenities including a shop, pub and primary school.
This is a cottage for someone who values heritage detail and country living. The house is packed with original features — low ceilings, exposed beams, stone elevations and thatch — and benefits from a generous plot with a former blacksmith’s barn/garage that has power, lighting and oil-fired boiler. Broadband is fast, crime levels are very low, and there is no flood risk, making it suitable for year-round occupation or an idyllic second home.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the Grade II listing and thatched roof create ongoing maintenance obligations and will restrict alterations. Low / cosy ceiling heights and some small-to-medium room sizes may not suit everyone. Prospective purchasers are advised to obtain specialist surveys (especially on services, thatch and listed consent requirements) before committing.
Rare to the market, this cottage will most appeal to buyers seeking character-filled, village living and a garden for horticulture or quiet outdoor entertaining. If you want a traditional Norfolk thatched property with period charm and a substantial plot, this is worth viewing.
