Set on almost 1.9 acres just a few minutes from historic Reepham, this two-bedroom period cottage suits buyers who prioritise outdoor space and rural living. Character features include exposed beams, a wood burner, cottage stairway and a separate self-contained studio annexe — useful for guests, home working or rental income. The Marriott’s Way runs across the road for long walks, cycle routes and easy countryside access.
The large, mostly grassed grounds are arranged with vegetable beds, fruit cages, workshop, outbuildings and secure enclosures currently housing small livestock — ideal for smallholding, equestrian or hobby-farming use. A substantial timber workshop and hardstanding area provide scope for garaging or further buildings, subject to local authority consent.
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is oil-fired with boiler and radiators, the cottage has solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated) and broadband speeds are slow. The outbuildings and conversion potential will require formal planning checks and any buyer should commission a full survey, especially given the property's age and construction.
This home will suit families, couples or smallholding enthusiasts seeking countryside character close to local amenities and schooling, with good access to Norwich and the North Norfolk coast. It offers immediate rural enjoyment alongside clear scope for sympathetic modernisation to improve comfort and energy efficiency.
