3 bed detached house for sale

The Street, Tivetshall St. Mary, Norwich NR15

Dating back to 1851, this delightful detached cottage is a wonderful example of period charm meeting modern-day living, occupying an idyllic position in the heart of the South Norfolk countryside, with far-reaching views across open fields.

Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully improved by the current owners, the property retains a wealth of character, including exposed timbers and ceiling beams, whilst offering beautifully presented accommodation throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a particularly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining room, where a contemporary kitchen, fitted just 18 months ago, sits comfortably alongside exposed beams and a charming log burner. This is a wonderfully sociable space, ideal for everyday family life and entertaining. Across the hall, the light-filled sitting room is equally appealing, with floor-to-ceiling windows, french doors opening onto the garden and a further log burner creating a cosy focal point. A generous family bathroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned double bedrooms are arranged around a central landing, with the principal bedroom benefiting from useful eaves storage. A modern shower room serves the first floor, providing practical and comfortable accommodation.

Outside, the mature gardens have been lovingly landscaped and wrap around the cottage, offering a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion. The rear garden backs directly onto open fields, where uninterrupted rural views and the changing seasons create an idyllic backdrop. A charming summer house provides a delightful spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings, whilst a substantial detached outbuilding incorporates a garage and a self-contained home office with independent access, ideal for those working from home or seeking additional flexible space.

A characterful country home in a truly special setting, offering an appealing balance of tranquillity, charm and modern convenience.
