Cosy two-bed village cottage with wood-burner, courtyard and garage — ideal first home or rental.
Two double bedrooms with practical first-floor layout
Lounge with wood-burning stove and exposed beams
Open-plan kitchen with island and fitted appliances
Small enclosed courtyard plus rear store with power
Compact single garage suitable for small car or storage
Very small plot and mid-terrace position restrict outdoor space
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated; potential upgrade needed
Slow broadband and electric-based heating may increase running costs
Set in the quiet Norfolk hamlet of Fulmodeston, this well-presented two-bedroom character cottage offers a compact, low-maintenance home or a straightforward buy-to-let. The property retains cottage character — exposed beams, wood-burning stove and a brick façade — while providing modern conveniences such as a fitted kitchen, double glazing and a fitted bathroom. Motivated vendors and a guide price of £170,000–£180,000 add appeal for first-time buyers or investors seeking value in a rural location.
Accommodation is arranged over two floors with an open-plan feel between the lounge and kitchen. The lounge is cosy with a multi-fuel stove and low ceilings that enhance the cottage atmosphere but limit headroom. Two double bedrooms occupy the first floor; room sizes are practical for everyday use. Outside is a small enclosed courtyard and a rear store with power and lighting, plus a compact single garage suitable for a small car or secure storage.
Buyers should note some practical limitations: the plot is very small, the property is mid-terrace with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), and main heating is electric with a boiler and radiators — running costs may be higher than modern gas systems. Broadband speeds are reported slow, which may affect home working. There are no flooding risks and local crime levels are low; the cottage sits in a rural, remoter community within easy driving distance of Fakenham.
This home suits a buyer seeking character and a manageable maintenance commitment, or an investor wanting a rental in a peaceful village setting. A survey is recommended to check services and structure if longer-term upgrading or insulation improvements are planned.
