Bluestone Lodge is a detached period bungalow set on a 0.2-acre plot in a peaceful rural spot in Cawston. The single-storey layout includes two double bedrooms, a double-aspect sitting room with an open fire, a fitted kitchen, bathroom, and a separate cloakroom — a comfortable layout suited to downsizers or a small family. The property is offered chain-free, with private parking and a garden enclosed by post-and-rail fencing.
Practical points to note: heating is by an oil-fired boiler and the home uses a private water supply and private drainage, which require ongoing management. The bungalow sits within a conservation area and the purchaser must erect a boundary fence within six months of completion. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow and the building’s solid flint and brick walls are likely uninsulated, contributing to the current EPC rating of 39 (upgrade potential stated).
The plot and setting are genuine strengths — mature trees, hedging and countryside outlook provide privacy and a rural feel, while the gravel driveway gives ample off-road parking. Internally the property retains character features such as exposed brickwork and chimney recesses; it will reward a buyer willing to improve heating, insulation and energy performance.
Overall this is a straightforward cottage-style home for someone seeking a quiet village location with scope to modernise. It’s especially suitable for buyers wanting single-level living and a private plot; buyers should budget for energy upgrades, potential drainage/water maintenance, and works consistent with living in a conservation area.
