Set back in a quiet hamlet near Thetford, this three-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers a peaceful country lifestyle with sweeping field views and a large garden. The ground floor centres on a comfortable lounge with a feature log burner and a generous kitchen/diner, making it straightforward for family life and informal entertaining. A family bathroom plus a separate W/C adds practical convenience for households.
Built c.1900–1929 with a traditional brick/granite façade and double glazing fitted after 2002, the house retains period character while offering everyday comfort. Heating is by oil-fired boiler and radiators; the property is freehold and comes with a brick-built outbuilding useful for storage, hobby use or a workshop. Local amenities are limited by the rural location, but Great Hockham Primary School (Good Ofsted) is within reach and crime levels are low.
Buyers should note the EPC rating of E and that the original stone walls likely lack cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency upgrades could be needed. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average — important for those who work from home. There is a modest service charge of £450 (below average) to be aware of. Overall, this is a characterful family cottage with scope to improve energy performance and modernise utilities while enjoying a sizeable plot and countryside outlook.
