House For Sale £400,000
Rose Cottage is a quintessential 'chocolate box' cottage situated in a charming rural setting on the edge of the popular and conveniently located village of Stibbard. Believed to have been built circa 1820 of rendered elevations under a pantiled roof, this detached cottage is side onto the road with a low brick and flint wall to the front boundary making the most of the views over neighbouring paddock land.
The current owners have lovingly carried out a programme of refurbishment whilst retaining character and period features such as exposed beams, latch doors and an impressive original fireplace. There is ground floor accommodation comprising a kitchen/breakfast room, sitting room which is open plan to the dining area, a snug and a utility/shower room. Upstairs, the landing leads to 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.
The cottage has attractively landscaped partly walled cottage gardens with a parking area and is being offered for sale with no onward chain.
Stibbard is a rural village surrounded by undulating and well-wooded countryside, with a mixture of cottages, period houses and modern properties, and the benefit of a primary school and a Parish Church.
The village is conveniently located 5 miles east of the market town of Fakenham with the Georgian market town of Holt 13 miles to the north east. The Cathedral City of Norwich is approximately 21 miles to the south east with its mainline station to London Liverpool Street and international airport. The north Norfolk coast, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is also easily accessible from the village.
