Description

This historical property, a substantial period home from the 1800s, is located in close proximity to the town centre of Swaffham. With extensive renovations needed, this residence offers a remarkable opportunity for buyers looking to create their own vision of a modern home while retaining its classic charm. The main living areas are arranged over two floors, featuring an impressive entrance hallway that showcases a grand staircase. The ground floor includes several reception spaces such as a formal dining room with a bay window and fireplace, an expansive sitting room complemented by two bay windows and additional fireplace, and various other practical areas including a study, utility room, cloakroom, and shower room. There is also an annexe on the ground floor with its own kitchen and separate access—ideal for multi-generational living or accommodating guests. Upstairs, the property can accommodate up to nine bedrooms. Among these, three bedrooms can be integrated into the annexe layout along with a bathroom, creating a versatile living space. The arrangement allows potential buyers to reconfigure existing rooms to add additional bathrooms or en-suites to meet personal or family needs effectively. Outside, the property is set on approximately 1.2 acres and accessed via a tree-lined driveway leading to substantial off-road parking. The grounds are primarily landscaped with lawns interspersed with mature trees and shrubs. There’s significant potential for landscaping or even developing additional accommodations within existing outbuildings currently utilized for storage and garage space—these can easily serve the interests of car enthusiasts or those seeking workshop space. Situated in Swaffham—an attractive market town—the location provides convenient access to local shops, restaurants, public services, and educational institutions as well as transport links including nearby train services that connect to London Kings Cross in about 90 minutes. This blend of historical character and investment potential makes this property a unique offering for renovation enthusiasts or those seeking substantial living space in an appealing community setting.
