4 Bedroom Property

An imposing and substantial Victorian detached property in a convenient location in Diss with a self-contained annexe and huge potential to update.

PROPERTY
The property is a substantial and versatile detached Victorian property that has been in the same family for 40 years. The property was originally divided into 3 flats internally but work has been done to reinstate it to one house. It still offers enormous potential to update and modernise to create an impressive home. In addition to the principal house is a self-contained annexe.

The front door opens to a spacious entrance hall with elegant staircase rising to the first floor with feature stained glass window. There are two impressive double aspect reception rooms to the front with bay windows. One of the reception rooms has a door to the side. Originally there was a Victorian conservatory and the original tiled floor is still in situ. There are two former shower rooms (unfitted). To the rear are two further rooms, both were previously kitchens but now unfitted and could be used for a variety of purposes. Off one are two rooms that could be a utility room and a store room/pantry. Beneath the principal staircase is access to the cellar. The first floor is currently configured as a flat with sitting room and kitchen/dining room to the front and three first floor bedrooms, one of which has an ensuite WC, bathroom, further shower room and stairs up to a second floor bedroom.

Externally the property has parking for several cars to the front and estate railings. There is an attached garage to the side. Beyond the garage is a self-contained annexe with one bedroom, shower room, open-plan living room/kitchen and garden room with French doors leading to a small patio. Immediately to the rear of the house is a raised terrace for alfresco dining and the established garden beyond is laid principally to lawn interspersed with an array of mature shrubs and trees. The secluded and secure Victorian walled garden benefits from double gates to the rear allowing access to Lowes View.
