South Lopham

Location:

Milton End is situated at the end of a little lane with no passing traffic other than the occasional dog walker. At the same time it is just out of the centre of this village and a short walk from the public house. In the neighbouring village of North Lopham there is a school and small shop and the nearby market town of Diss (5 miles) provides wider shopping, social and leisure amenities, schooling to sixth form level and a mainline rail station on the Norwich to London Liverpool Street line with a journey to London taking around 90 minutes. The A1066 provides a swift route to Thetford which then links with the A11 leading to Newmarket, within around 40 minutes, and Cambridge, just over an hour.

The Property

Milton End is an attractive period cottage which has been tastefully restored and extended. This work has revealed and enhanced much of the period character and combined with this, modern facilities have been incorporated including double glazed windows set in traditional wooden frames, oil fired central heating and good quality fittings. The rooms are all well proportioned and naturally light.

Outside

Milton End is tucked away at the end of a grassed track with a shingled driveway sweeping past the front of the cottage where there are shrub and flowerbeds contained by 'rope twist' border edgings. To the front of the cottage is a tall mixed hedge with a driveway edged by railway sleepers which takes you to a large shingled parking area and two timber garages/stores. Further back is the grassed rear garden and a large patio with summer house. Overall the property is just shy of quarter of an acre and lies in a quiet idyllic position which is little known about.

Services

Mains water and electricity are connected to the property, private drainage. Oil fired boiler providing heating to radiators and domestic hot water.
