Description

Sowerbys are pleased to present this impressive semi-detached cottage, built of clay lump construction underneath a pantile roof and fully rendered, providing a modern façade.

Furthermore, the property has a fully enclosed rear garden and ample off-road parking.

Positioned within the historic market town of Watton, approached via Thetford road and set back into the plot, the property has a generous driveway providing ample off-road parking. The internal accommodation has been completely transformed, offering accommodation extending to approximately 1,028 sq. ft. across two floors. The ground floor has two reception rooms, including an impressive 15' 1" (4.6m) sitting room along with a sizeable garden room, which enjoys views out onto the garden and could double up as a dining room. The kitchen has newly fitted wall and base gloss units with a fitted oven and space for appliances. There is a utility cupboard and lots of storage to the rear of the property, including a downstairs cloakroom. One of the three bedrooms is located on the ground floor and is accessed from the sitting room. The space could alternatively be used as an 'at home' office if required.

Stairs lead up from the ground floor onto a central landing, granting access to both remaining double bedrooms, each benefitting from built-in wardrobes and the upstairs bathroom, which has a separate cloakroom. The property has uPVC double glazed windows and doors and fuelled by a new gas fired boiler.
