5 Dereham Road is a charming mid terrace period cottage situated within walking distance of amenities on the outskirts of the popular village of Litcham.
The current owners have carried out an extensive refurbishment of the property to now provide beautifully presented accommodation comprising a cosy sitting room, well appointed kitchen/diner, a ground floor luxury shower room and a landing upstairs leading to 2 bedrooms and a cloakroom. Further benefits include cottage style UPVC double glazed windows with views from the upstairs bedrooms over allotments and countryside, a fireplace in the sitting room housing a wood burning stove and recessed ceiling lights.
