SETTING THE SCENE From Buckenham Road, a high level hedge and timber gates lead onto a shingle driveway, with private non-overlooked lawned gardens to front. Mature planting, shrubbery, hedging and trees can be found throughout, whilst you can stand back and look at the height of the cottage and its attractive thatched roof. The driveway continues to the side, with a front and side access door to the cottage, and gated access to the gardens, and access to the Oil Tank located in the corner of the front garden. 

THE GRAND TOUR Stepping into the small front porch, a door leads to the main sitting room. Focused on the main feature fire place, with exposed brick work and a timber beam, an inset cast iron wood burner provides additional heating to the room. Finished with fitted carpet, window to front and a door to the rear garden, a further door leads to the adjacent kitchen. Finished with a bespoke solid wood range of wall and base level units, there is space for cooking appliances and general white goods, with an inset sink and ample space for a table. An entrance hall leads off, with stairs to the first floor landing and storage below housing the newly installed central heating boiler boiler. A side porch/utility space can be found, the main entrance for the owner, with further storage. Upstairs, the landing offers useful storage, and various recesses for furniture. The family bathroom can be found to the right with tiled splash backs, with an adjacent double bedroom offering views to the side. The main bedroom offers a dual aspect and a walk-in wardrobe space which offers potential for conversion.
