House For Sale £430,000
Location If you are looking for peace and quiet combined with easy access to facilities, this cottage has much to offer being in a tucked away position within the parish of Roydon but sitting much more on the very edge of Diss. There is just a handful of properties along Potash Lane and the cottage enjoys tranquil views across meadowland. Whilst having this rural aspect, the centre of town is just a brisk walk or short drive away and provides an excellent range of facilities, including schooling to sixth form level, supermarkets, independent shops and various sports facilities such as tennis, rugby, golf and bowls. For those looking for a weekend cottage or perhaps commuting to London, there is a mainline rail station in Diss with regular trains to London Liverpool Street in around 90 minutes. Both Norwich and Ipswich are around 25 miles away, the Heritage Coast around Southwold and Aldeburgh is just 45 minutes or so by car, and The Broads are also within easy reach.
The Property By The Potash is grade 2 listed with a fascinating and well documented history. It is of timber frame construction with rendered outer walls beneath a pantiled roof and the current owners have used it for various purposes including most recently, a holiday let which has been very successful. Since they have owned the cottage they have undertaken a series of improvements and completed these in a very sympathetic manner to retain the original character. Features of the house include the brick floors, open fireplaces, period doors and exposed timber frame. Given the extent of ground there is room to extend subject to Planning and Listed Building consents.
Outside One of the great attractions of this cottage is the extent of garden combined with the style. Overall the cottage is set in 0.60ac with the majority of ground extending to the rear and ranging from lawned areas and flower beds, down along cut pathways through the trees and past the summer house, ending up at a wildlife area at the bottom. There are lovely views to the east across grazing meadows. At the front of the cottage is a driveway for several cars, the garage and two store sheds. Overall the gardens provide a very tranquil setting.
Services Mains water and electricity are connected to the property. Private drainage.
Directions From the A140 travelling into Diss from the Scole roundabout into Victoria Road. Continue straight through the town, past The Park Hotel and straight over the mini-roundabout. Go past the police station and then take the next left turn into Denmark Lane. Follow the road around the right hand bend into Tottington Lane and in a little while turn left onto Potash Lane. Continue to the bottom around the right hand bend and the cottage is just a little further along on the left hand side.
