A charming Grade II Listed detached cottage in the heart of Earsham with character and an excellent sized garden.
Property - The property is a charming Grade II Listed cottage within the heart of Earsham. It is attached at one end to the historic garden wall of the adjacent period property. The house has an abundance of character but is now in need of modernisation but offers huge potential.
The front door is to the rear of the property with a porch leading to an inner hall. It in turn gives access to the bathroom and a storage cupboard. A door from the hall leads into the triple aspect kitchen with a range of wall and base cupboards. There is a dining room connecting the kitchen with the large double aspect sitting room. There is a substantial open fireplace. Off the sitting room is a further reception room with brick floor and stairs to the first floor. On the first floor are three bedrooms, two of which have fitted wardrobes. Please note that there is some restricted head-height on the landing due to the eaves.
There is a charming garden area to the front of the property. There is shared access between the property and neighbouring property that leads to a private driveway and parking area with detached garage. The rear garden is a good size with some established shrubs and trees. It offers a blank canvas for landscaping.
