Woodbine Cottage is a charming Victorian semi set on a generous plot in peaceful Erpingham. The house keeps period character—brick elevations, pantile roof and a cosy sitting room with fireplace—while later additions (conservatory, utility) give practical family space. The large, private garden and village location offer a quiet rural lifestyle with easy access to the A140 and nearby towns.
The property has useful modernisations such as UPVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating, but it also offers clear scope to update and personalise. The interior is sound but dated in places and would benefit from modernization or reconfiguration; sensible purchasers will budget for cosmetic works and potential extension.
Practical points for buyers: broadband speeds are average, mobile signal is excellent, and there is no flood risk. The village has a primary school (Ofsted: requires improvement) alongside other good nearby schools, a pub and local amenities. This home suits buyers seeking a manageable, character cottage with a large garden and the opportunity to add value through improvement.
