This Grade II listed semi-detached cottage, known as Pear Tree Cottage, presents a unique opportunity for those seeking a substantial restoration project in the desirable village of East Harling, Norfolk. The property boasts an unusually spacious layout for a cottage, situated on a generous plot. Currently in a state of disrepair and deemed structurally unsound, this home has previously received planning approval for demolition and rebuilding; however, as it is now listed, any future developments will necessitate compliance with relevant consents.
Engagement with the local Historic Buildings Officer indicates that there are promising avenues for expansion and enhancement of the property's footprint. Plans have been discussed regarding potential extensions and the creation of separate living spaces within the garden area, whether as independent dwellings or annexes—again subject to necessary permissions.
The property features a double garage accessible via a shared side driveway and is set amidst a flint-walled front garden leading to the entrance. This listing is particularly suited to cash buyers who appreciate the historical character and immense renovation potential of such properties. Viewings are strictly by appointment only.
