Set within the rural countryside, the property enjoys a peaceful and picturesque location, situated on a quiet country lane within the hamlet of Smallworth adjoining the village of Garboldisham. Steeped in history, Garboldisham boasts a strong and active local community with good amenities, including a well-stocked village shop/post office, a village hall, a beautiful church, a school, and a community-run pub. Conveniently located, the property is within easy reach of several key destinations. The historic market town of Diss lies just seven miles to the east, offering a wide range of shops, facilities, and a mainline railway station with direct services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich. Thetford is nine miles to the west, and the bustling market town of Bury St Edmunds is 17 miles to the south-west, providing further amenities and attractions. The property comprises an individually built three/four bedroom detached bungalow, offering approximately 1,800 sq. ft. of spacious and versatile living accommodation with well-proportioned rooms all flooded by plenty of natural light. A generously sized entrance hall leads to the principal rooms and includes ample built-in storage cupboards. The main reception room features a large picture window, providing delightful views of the front gardens, and flows seamlessly into the dining room through an elegant archway. The kitchen, located at the rear of the property, boasts far-reaching views across picturesque rural fields. It has been updated in recent years and is now equipped with oak worktops, ample cupboard storage, and integrated appliances. Previously configured as a 4-bedroom bungalow, one of the bedrooms has been converted into an additional bathroom, though it could easily be reverted to its original purpose if required. The property is warmed by an oil-fired central heating system operating through radiators. An added benefit is the inclusion of solar panels, which are owned outright but currently not connected. The purchaser would need to arrange connection with a utility provider to enjoy this feature. The plot covers approximately 0.26 acres and is set back from the road, accessed via a single driveway. The property features a spacious frontage, offering extensive off-road parking, while a mature tree line at the front provides excellent privacy. To the side of the property, there is a double garage, an attached timber workshop, and a storage area, offering ample storage space. The rear garden is laid to lawn and benefits from a southerly aspect, backing onto rural fields with far reaching views. AGENTS NOTE:  It should be noted that the property experienced flooding within the last few years. The vendor has since made an insurance claim and installed flood defences, including a retaining wall, to prevent future issues. For more information, please contact the selling agent.
