An attractive Victorian cottage with plenty of room outside to extend, situated in a lovely location overlooking the church, within this well-regarded village. All in about 0.35-acre

Situated in an enviable location within this highly sought-after village overlooking the church, 3 The Street is a pretty Victorian cottage, built of traditional construction with attractive soft red-brick elevations underneath a plain-tiled roofline.

The property is graced with a number of original features, whilst affording a good deal of natural light throughout, and offers charming accommodation comprising a rear entrance hall with terracotta tiled floors leading to a ground-floor shower room, with matching flooring and travertine tiled walls and large walk-in cubicle.

The sitting room enjoys views towards the church, with exposed red-brick chimney breast with wood-burning stove and archway open to a study area.

On the first floor, there is a good-sized landing with airing cupboard and fireplace, access to three good-sized bedrooms and a recently modernized family bathroom.

Outside
3 The Street is approached from the village road onto a shared driveway, leading to a modern but traditionally styled double cart-lodge and further parking space. From here is an opening to a public footpath which leads to farmland and wonderful dog walks.

The grounds extend to around 0.35-acre, with the property being set back behind well-maintained hedging, with a large expanse of lawned gardens, shrubs, and trees. There is a further gated access from Buxhall Road, which provides more parking and garden, whilst presently leading to a steel-framed home for the owners’ geese – both of which are available for the new owners if of interest!
