The Fabulous Project/First Home...
Positioned on the very edge of the peaceful village of Cranworth, this former local authority home at 8 Swathing offers a rare opportunity to acquire a generously sized plot in a delightful rural setting, with excellent potential to update, modernise or extend (subject to planning).
Enjoying far-reaching countryside views and a wonderful sense of space, the property boasts a south-facing rear garden, ample off-road parking, and a range of outbuildings including a full-height workshop/store, outside WC, and coal shed. The home itself has recently benefitted from a new roof and retains many charming original features including quarry tile flooring, cast iron fireplaces, and exposed floorboards.
Internally, accommodation includes a light-filled lounge with dual aspect windows, a separate dining room with a feature fireplace, and a kitchen/utility space with scope for reconfiguration. Upstairs are three bedrooms – the principal bedroom being of notably generous proportions – and a practical wet room. Additional storage can be found in built-in cupboards and a loft hatch from the landing.
The plot offers substantial space to the front, side and rear, making it ideal for further parking, garaging, or a cart lodge. Its location opposite Cranworth’s recreation ground and next to open countryside enhances the sense of privacy and rural charm.
Cranworth itself is a tranquil village with strong community feel, while nearby Shipdham, Hingham and Dereham provide everyday amenities including shops, pubs, schools and services. The vibrant city of Norwich lies within easy reach for more extensive facilities and rail links.
This is a property full of potential in a superb rural position — ideal for those seeking a countryside lifestyle with room to grow.
