Summary - 96 THE COMMON FREETHORPE NORWICH NR13 3LT
2 bed 2 bath Cottage
Charming countryside home with beams, wood burner and strong holiday-let history.
Picturesque rear garden backing onto open fields
A beautifully presented two-bedroom period cottage set in quiet Freethorpe, offered ready to move into. Character features include exposed beams, an exposed brick fireplace with wood burner, and a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite. The rear garden backs onto open fields, offering pleasant countryside views and two raised decked seating areas.
Practical details: the house is solid brick built before 1900 with double glazing added after 2002 and oil-fired central heating via boiler and radiators. There is a sandstone patio, timber outbuildings and summer house, driveway/brick-weave frontage, and a decent enclosed plot. Flood risk is reported as none and local crime levels are very low.
Considerations before viewing: the property’s solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation, and the main heating fuel is oil (not a community supply), which can be more expensive and requires an oil tank. Broadband speeds are slow in the area despite excellent mobile signal. One ground-floor room is noted as non-standard construction; buyers should confirm suitability and services.
This cottage has previously operated successfully as a holiday let, producing notable income in 2024, which may interest buyers seeking rental potential. Council tax costs are described as low. An inspection is recommended to verify fixtures, services and any renovation or insulation work you may wish to undertake.
