Location
Located in a rural spot with no immediate neighbours, the cottage is roughly a mile from Mendham village centre. Mendham itself sits in the heart of the picturesque Waveney Valley, just 4 miles from Harleston. The village has a pub, primary school and a church, with wider facilities, such as shops and supermarkets found across the Norfolk border in nearby Harleston. Slightly further afield is the market town of Diss, which also hosts a good range of shops, schooling options and transport links, including a railway station on the mainline to Norwich and London Liverpool Street.
The property
This charming cottage has been extended in years gone by, with the original two storey part of the building supported by a large single storey section which includes a large, 29' vaulted living room with central, double ended chimney breast. The entire square footage totals around 1600 sq.ft, with two ground floor bedrooms and a main bedroom with dressing room on the first floor, however, there is flexibility on how the rooms can be used. Whilst the décor is mainly neutral throughout, the internal condition is tired and requires a refresh and modernization of its fittings.
Outside
The cottage occupies a plot of around 0.25 acre which is surrounded by open countryside and farmland. Like the cottage, there is huge scope to improve and landscape the grounds, which are now overgrown and require extensive clearing (mainly to the far side of the property, which has a large area of thick brambles).
Agents note: We have been informed that whilst the generator is in working order, parts of the system and electrical upgrades within the cottage are advised. We advise that any interested buyer requiring finance investigates options with regards to mortgage ability.
Services
Electricity to the cottage provided via diesel generator powering batteries. We have been informed that the cottage has mains water with a private drainage system.

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 December 21, 2021
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
