The Property
This charming three bedroom semi-detached cottage is situated within the popular village of South Lopham and offers a characterful and particularly versatile arrangement of accommodation.
The front door opens directly into a generous open plan living/dining room, where exposed timbers and beams provide an immediate sense of character, while a wood burning stove forms an attractive focal point. From here, the accommodation continues through to a substantial garden room, providing a useful additional reception space with views out towards the rear garden. A rear hallway connects the remainder of the ground floor accommodation, including a well-equipped kitchen with a good range of fitted units and worktop space, together with the family bathroom. Also positioned on the ground floor is the third bedroom, alongside a separate utility/WC with space and plumbing for white goods. This latter part of the cottage offers an interesting degree of flexibility. With its own rear access and the bedroom and utility/WC positioned conveniently together, there is potential to create a degree of ancillary accommodation for a relative, guest or older child without significant reconfiguration, subject to individual requirements. Stairs rise to the first floor where there are two further double bedrooms, completing the accommodation.
Outside
The property is approached over a shingle driveway initially shared with the neighbouring property, before providing parking to the side of the cottage. In all, there is comfortable off-road parking for up to three vehicles. The gardens wrap around the cottage, extending across both the front and rear and helping to give the property an attractive, established setting. They are predominantly laid to lawn with a selection of mature trees and planting providing interest and a pleasant degree of greenery. A particularly useful addition is the detached cart lodge, which provides covered parking and is complemented by an adjoining workshop, ideal for storage, hobbies or practical use.
