The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this attractive character cottage, occupying a generous corner plot with a private driveway and various outbuildings, situated in the popular village of Great Bircham. The property presents a wonderful opportunity to modernise and potentially re-model the existing accommodation, which extends to around 1,500 sq./ft. of internal floor area. The property, which has been in the ownership of the same family for over 50 years, was originally a pair of farm cottages owned by the Houghton Hall Estate and remains on two separate titles; meaning that the property could be returned to two cottages if required (subject to confirmation from the local planning authority). We would like to make interested parties aware that the property is available with no onward chain.
ACCOMMODATION
Visitors are welcomed in from the rear parking area, through an entrance porch which leads into the dining room. From the dining area there are openings to the fitted kitchen and into one of two front reception rooms (listed as the living room on the floorplan), which has a bottled gas fireplace. To the side of the living room is another well-proportioned family reception room, with a brick-built fireplace and double doors into a side conservatory. On the ground floor there is also a versatile study or utility area located off the front hall and a ground floor shower room.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms arranged around the large landing area, which also houses a cloakroom and a built-in airing cupboard. All of the bedrooms are equipped with a range of fitted wardrobes.
OUTSIDE
The property is set back from the road behind a neatly maintained front lawn, which wraps around the side of the house, where there is a concrete driveway leading into the rear parking area. The driveway and parking area can accommodate at least four vehicles. To the side of the driveway there is a courtyard garden and a pair of outbuildings, which are currently used for storage but could be adapted into garages, workshop space or additional accommodation (such as a home office, exercise room or studio) if required.
LOCATION

The nearby villages of Docking (5 miles) and Snettisham (8 miles) offer a wider range of amenities.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on October 11, 2022
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: obtained from Ofcom on October 11, 2022
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
