Furthermore, there is space for appliances and a built-in electric oven with an overhead extractor and ceramic hobs. The two spacious double bedrooms are both accessed from the hallway and share the generous 18ft bathroom, which benefits from a large airing cupboard. The property has double glazing installed throughout and is heated by electric heating.

The property sits on a spacious site mainly gravelled with an allocated parking space, visitor parking, bike sheds and bin area. 

YAXHAM The penthouse occupies an exclusive gated cul-de-sac location, which is both quiet and sought after. Dereham and about two miles from the nearest Tesco supermarket. The village provides local amenities including an Indian restaurant at the landmark Yaxham Mill, Yaxham Waters farm shop and tea room, and a primary school. Further amenities can be found at the nearby town of Dereham. Modern shops merge comfortably into a heritage dating back to the 10th century when Withburga, daughter of a Saxon king, established a religious community in the deer park, which gave the town its name. Free parking allows you time to stroll around seeking out the restaurants and cafes or for an afternoon shop. There are museums, a leisure centre, golf course and schools within the town, or for the nature lovers take a stroll along the Neatherd Moor and the Vicarage Meadow. Slightly further afield are the ruins of the Saxon Cathedral at North Elmham, the wildlife and Dinosaur Parks, Pensthorpe, a bird lovers paradise and Thetford Forest Park. Norwich has good local transport links with the town and has an international airport and a mainline rail link to Liverpool Street, London, being approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes away. Downham Market approximately 40 minutes' drive away, provides mainline rail link to Cambridge and King's Cross/St Pancras, London.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
