Period charm with modern kitchen, large south-facing plot and waterside location.
Three double bedrooms with generous storage space
This tastefully updated 1930s thatched bungalow combines period character with contemporary convenience in the Norfolk Broads village of Horning. The home offers three roomy bedrooms, a bright living room and a modern kitchen fitted with quartz worktops and integrated appliances, all set on a generous, south-facing plot that captures plenty of daylight.
Recent works include a new boiler and energy-efficient radiators (installed 2023), a re-ridged and re-netted thatch, and a newly roofed garage — improvements that reduce immediate maintenance needs while retaining the cottage’s traditional appeal. The property is double-glazed (pre-2002) and runs on mains gas with conventional boiler-and-radiator heating.
Practical conveniences include off-road parking, an integral garage, enclosed front and rear gardens, and a large plot with well-kept lawns and patio areas. Horning’s village amenities, riverside pubs and primary school are within easy walking distance, with Wroxham and Norwich reachable for wider shopping and transport links.
Important considerations: the bungalow sits in a high flood-risk area, which will affect insurance and resilience measures. The walls are original solid brick with no built-in insulation (assumed), the EPC is rated E, and council tax is above average. Buyers should factor in long-term upkeep typical of thatched properties and confirm flood mitigation, insurance costs and any required consents.
