Manor Gardens is a much sought after location offering a handful of similar bungalows superbly positioned within a private and select close tucked away within the centre of Diss. Situated just off Shelfanger Road, there is a pleasant walk down to Mount Street and into the town centre. Diss is a thriving market town providing local and national shopping, well regarded schooling through to sixth form level, modern health centre and various sporting and leisure amenities including a 18 hole golf course. There are good transport links including a mainline railway station on the Norwich to London Liverpool Street line (London 90 minutes). The A140 provides good access to both Norwich and Ipswich whilst the historic town of Bury St Edmunds lies around 18 miles away via the A143.
This property is one of just 8 similar cottage-style bungalows constructed in the 1930s in the grounds of what was then Diss Manor. Over the years, this bungalow has been sympathetically enhanced and upgraded, and is now beautifully presented throughout in excellent decorative order. All of the rooms are well-proportioned and flooded with plenty of natural light, with a pleasing versatile layout and total accommodation stretching to 1,200 sq ft. During the current vendor's time of occupation, the bathrooms and kitchen have all been replaced, alongside the gas boiler and upvc double glazed windows. There are two access points to the bungalow: A formal entrance to the front retaining the original quarry tiled flooring, whilst the rear hall provides more convenient access leading off the driveway to the rear of the bungalow. The main reception room is of a most generous size, featuring a large bay window to the front aspect and providing access to the third reception room, which is currently used as a large formal dining room. The second reception room is equally sized and conveniently located next to the kitchen, offering views and access over the gardens whilst showcasing a working open fireplace that creates a lovely focal point. The kitchen is in an excellent condition, offering a good range of fitted storage units with integrated appliances including a 4-ring gas hob, fitted oven, fridge and dishwasher. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the second bedroom and bathroom. At first floor level, the principal bedroom is well sized with semi-vaulted ceilings and has the luxury of en-suite facilities.
Externally, the bungalow is situated on a corner plot. A shingle driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a single detached garage. The main gardens are located to the side and are enclosed, private, and well-maintained. A large paved patio can be found to the side, along with a timber shed. This area also provides access to the front gardens.
