Located in the desirable village of Thorpe Abbots, on the South Norfolk border, this charming village is surrounded by picturesque countryside along the Waveney Valley. With a beautiful assortment of many period properties, it is a fine example of a pretty and quintessential Norfolk village. Conveniently located only six miles east of Diss and four miles west of Harleston, residents have easy access to local amenities. The historic market town of Diss provides a wide range of amenities and facilities alongside a mainline railway station with direct services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

This gorgeous farmhouse, listed as a Grade II historic building, is believed to have been built in 1829. Originally, it consisted of two farm worker's cottages, but it was later extended during the Victorian era when the farm manager resided in it and in the 1960's it underwent additional refurbishment. The current owners have lived in the property for the past 20 years, during which they have made significant upgrades and enhancements to a very high standard. The property boasts over 2,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation, including five spacious bedrooms on the first floor. The ground floor features two generously sized formal reception rooms with tranquil views of the surrounding woodland. Additionally, there is the practicality of a utility room, ground floor shower room and morning room for added convenience. As one would except to find in a property of this nature there is an abundance of charm and character alongside high quality fixtures and fittings.

The property is located on the outskirts of the village, offering a tranquil setting. As a former farmhouse, it is within close proximity to a working farm, creating a desirable and unspoilt countryside setting surrounded by established woodland. The house can be accessed via a shingle driveway, which provides ample off-road parking. The attached garage, (attached to the property in question - measuring 12' 6" x 16' 10", could potentially be converted into additional living space, subject to the necessary permissions).
