Description

This four-bedroom detached house, built approximately 20 years ago, presents a solid foundation for renovation and investment, making it an appealing prospect for those looking to put their personal touch on a property or capitalize on its potential. The home features a spacious layout of nearly 1,400 sq. ft (130 sqm), which includes an entrance hall, an 18-foot sitting room, a dining room, a study, a kitchen with utility space, and a cloakroom on the ground floor. Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room along with two additional double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom. Located within St Andrews Close—a small development of just 14 homes—the property is conveniently positioned opposite St Andrew’s Church and within easy reach of local amenities in the village of Barningham. The area includes a Spar village store with post office services, The Royal George pub, a primary school, village hall, and playing fields. For broader shopping and commuting options, the larger towns of Thetford (8 miles), Diss (11.5 miles), and Bury St Edmunds (13 miles) are all within reasonable driving distance. Diss also offers direct train services to London Liverpool Street Station that take approximately 80 minutes. Externally, the property features a generous shingled driveway leading to a detached double garage measuring around 5.5m x 5.4m. The front garden is equipped with mature trees that enhance its appeal while ensuring privacy. Meanwhile, the enclosed rear garden is predominantly laid to grass for ease of maintenance but also includes a patio area accessible from the sitting room—ideal for outdoor gatherings or quiet relaxation. While the property is generally well-maintained throughout, there is significant scope for updating in several areas that could enhance both comfort and value over time. With no forward chain involved in the sale process, this home represents not only an opportunity for personal customization but also an attractive investment option in an increasingly sought-after rural setting. Viewing appointments are available upon request; please contact the agent for more information about services such as mains electricity and oil-fired central heating systems. Council Tax Band E applies (approximately £2,773.70 per annum for 2025/2026).
