SEMI-RURAL LOCATION. Sowerbys are pleased to offer this fantastic opportunity to acquire 'Samaria', a detached bungalow positioned on the fringe of Watton, an historic market town within south-west Norfolk. Approached along Town Green Road, a quaint country lane, just a short distance from St Mary's Church which is believed to date back as early as 1100s.
Positioned alongside neighbouring farmland, the property enjoys a rural aspect to the side and rear and sits centrally within the plot, providing equal balanced space to the front and rear gardens, which total approximately 0.22 acres (STMS). The property itself extends to 845 sq. ft. and offers fantastic scope to further improve and develop the property, subject to the relevant planning permission.
The property's accommodation comprises two double bedrooms, along with two reception rooms. The sitting room overlooks the front aspect and houses a brick surround fireplace, benefiting from an open fire. The dining room is partly open plan to the kitchen, offering a sociable space to enjoy. The kitchen has a mixture of wall and base units, along with space for appliances and a single door out onto the garden. The remaining space includes a central hallway and the bathroom. The property is fitted with double glazed windows and doors and fuelled by oil fired central heating.
Approached from Town Green Road, entering onto a shingled driveway which provides ample off-road parking and scope to erect garaging or a cart-shed subject to the necessary permission. The boundaries are established, offering a mixture of fencing and mature hedging. The front garden is laid to lawn, with flower beds either side of the front door. Additionally, there is a pedestrian side gate into the rear garden. There is a generous paved patio immediately to the rear of the property and a lawned garden which wraps around the side. In addition, there is a 16ft3 storage shed with doors at either end.
WATTON The market town of Watton has a range of amenities including a post office, supermarket, chemist, infant, junior and secondary schools, health clinic, medical practice and dental surgery. There is a weekly market with lots to offer. For golf enthusiasts, Richmond Park Golf Club has an 18-hole course, driving range and practice green. Furthermore, there is a sports centre which offers a fitness suite, all weather courts, badminton, squash and snooker facilities. Watton is surrounded by beautiful Norfolk countryside and woodlands including Thetford Forest and Wayland Wood. The nearest train station is 8.5 miles away at Harling Road with a regular service to Norwich, 34 minutes, and the journey to Cambridge taking about 54 minutes.
The market town of Dereham is approximately 10 miles away with restaurants and cafés, museums, a leisure centre, golf course and schools. Thetford, Norwich and King's Lynn are all within an easy reach providing a wide choice of shopping and leisure venues. Norwich has good local transport links with the town and has an international airport and a mainline rail link to Liverpool Street, London.
