Located in the desirable village of Scarning, 6 The Watlings is a spacious, three bedroom, link-detached bungalow. Whilst the internal accommodation could benefit from a small amount of modernisation, the property offers huge potential, with three well-proportioned reception rooms, bathroom and seperate cloakroom, and a wonderful rear garden with far reaching Norfolk countryside views.

Entering the property you arrive into the warm and welcoming hallway, off which all the primary rooms lead. The good-sized kitchen has access into the garage, perfect for rainy days when returning home from the greengrocers. The living room and dining room are to the rear of the property and, due to their proximity to the kitchen, it would be possible to open up all three rooms (subject to the relevant permissions) to create a modern open plan layout that would benefit from views of the garden and the far-reaching countryside beyond. The property's wonderful sunroom has been thoroughly enjoyed by previous owners, enabling them to have a sense of being outside throughout the year.

To the northern side of the bungalow are the sleeping quarters, with two generous double rooms and a large single. The three bedrooms share the family bathroom with a separate WC too.

The generous rear garden enjoys a south-westerley aspect and is mainly lawned, with several mature trees and shrubs. A peaceful spot, it's the perfect place to take in the delightful countryside views to the rear.

Whilst the property needs a little love, it's been well maintained and with a little work and imagination the next owner could create a really wonderful home in a lovely part of Norfolk.  

SCARNING The popular village of Scarning, near Dereham, is within easy access of the town. There is a local primary school in the village as well as recreational grounds. The village of Scarning also has a village hall and church.

Nestled in the Brecklands, in the heart of the county, Dereham is a classic country market town and an architectural haven with plenty of Georgian gems set on generous plots, blended with more recent developments.

A twice weekly market, on Tuesdays and Fridays, along with a strong cohort of independent and specialist shops and free parking make the town a fabulous place for an afternoon spent browsing. Look out for the town's other historic landmarks which include the Mid-Norfolk Railway, a heritage line which runs 1950s railcars to Wymondham Abbey, Dereham Windmill, a Grade II listed building which was saved from the brink of destruction, and Bishop Bonner's Cottage, established in 1502 and believed to be the oldest building in town.

Heritage buffs are spoilt for choice with living museum Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse just a few minutes out of town, or step back in time and adventure at Castle Acre Castle and Priory, an 11th century monastic site, and National Trust property Oxburgh Hall, which is half an hour's drive away.

When you've worked up an appetite exploring, spice things up with a tasty dish at Spice Fusion curry house or head to The George Hotel, Bar and Restaurant which offers excellent accommodation, freshly cooked food and award winning ales, wines, beers and spirits . Brisley, 6.5 miles away, is home to one of Norfolk's best pubs, The Brisley Bell, with a first-rate menu and a warm welcome which has earned it multiple awards. Otherwise head to The Old Dairy in Stanfield and stock up on its artisan bread and produce for an easy dine-in experience.

With good local schools, a leisure centre and golf course, Dereham and its surrounding villages are a fantastic spot to enjoy the best of Norfolk country living with easy commuting access to Norwich and the coast at Wells-next-the-Sea, just 22 miles away. Come discover a Norfolk gem.

    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

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
