Set on an established plot of approximately 0.45 acres (sts), this detached single-level bungalow sits in a prominent position opposite the historic village church, with open field views to the rear. The house offers comfortable one-level living with a sizeable sitting room featuring a wood burner, a separate study and a versatile drawing room or fourth bedroom — useful for guests or a home office. Mature gardens include a large mulberry tree and private lawns that extend toward the surrounding countryside.
Practical benefits include a cart lodge, useful workshop and generous off-road parking. The property is about 4 miles from Diss, providing access to local shops and London train links, and is close to well-rated local schools, making it suitable for families or downsizers seeking a peaceful rural setting with good connections.
There are important modernization considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters, the property has double glazing installed before 2002, and the walls are timber-frame with no known insulation (assumed). Buyers should expect to upgrade heating, insulation and possibly windows to improve comfort and running costs. Council tax is above average and the home is of older construction, so routine maintenance and sympathetic refurbishment will be needed.
Overall this bungalow will suit buyers seeking generous single-level accommodation in a quiet village location with a large garden and further potential for improvement. It offers immediate liveability with scope to create a more energy-efficient, modern home while retaining its attractive rural character.
