The property
Waveney Cottage is a deeply loved home which has been in the same family for a number of years. Grade II listed, the house stretches back away from the road, having a number of formal rooms which offer flexibility as to their uses, the property presents the opportunity for the next owner to ‘add their own stamp’ to the decor and fittings moving forward. The kitchen/diner is a good size and stands out, as does the large, triple aspect vaulted sitting room, which still has the original bread oven in situ. A wide first floor landing opens to three bedrooms located at the front end of the property.
Outside
A huge selling point for the cottage is undoubtedly the superb outside space. A driveway down the side of the cottage open to the garage, outbuildings and rear garden. The initial section of the garden has an array of flowers and small pond, with the garden then opening up to a large expanse of lawn with series of trees dotted through the plot, creating a parkland feel. The gardens leads to the banks of the River Waveney which make for a unique place to sit, relax and take in breathtaking nature and the countryside views.
Services
Mains electricity, water and drainage are connected to the property. Gas fired central heating.
