Description

This charming 3/4 bedroom cottage, often described as a 'chocolate box' home, is ideally situated in a desirable village setting with picturesque views over Old Buckenham Green. The property has been extended at the rear, offering potential for various configurations of living space. Nestled on a mature plot that spans approximately 0.37 acres, the grounds feature an established garden with a pond and numerous apple trees, providing ample opportunity for landscaping enhancements. A significant aspect of this property is the clay lump outbuildings that offer great scope for renovation—potentially transforming them into additional living space or creative studios (subject to planning permissions). Inside, the cottage retains much of its character with original features like exposed floor timbers and traditional Inglenook fireplaces. However, it does require modernisation in terms of decor and fittings and may need some remedial work to bring it up to contemporary standards. This property presents itself as an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to inject their personal touch into a classic home within a vibrant community.
