Longsons are delighted to present to the market this beautiful 4 bedroom detached cottage situated on a plot 1.75 acres, providing potential equestrian living within the popular market town of Watton. The property boasts it`s own orchard, field views and even has it`s own stream, working well, plus a self contained annexe.
Having previously been established as a pub in the 1800s known as the Drum & Colours, this was converted into a residential dwelling now known as Holme House in 1901, of which livestock was kept on it`s grounds. During 1984 the neighbouring pig shed was converted into a fully self contained annexe proving a versatile living space. Inside the main cottage there is a lounge with log burning fire place, sitting room with open fireplace, dining room/study, kitchen/breakfast room, ground floor cloakroom, utility room and front facing conservatory. Upstairs, there are 3 double bedrooms, en-suite to master plus a 4 piece family bathroom suite complete with a spa bath tub. The Annexe, boasts it`s own lounge, kitchen/diner, conservatory, double bedroom, shower room and access to a covered sitting area to rear.
Outside, to front, is a gated entrance that leads to pebbled driveway further leading to a timber built garage providing ample off street parking altogether with orchard views. The orchard has several fruit trees surrounded by laid to lawn grass, shrubs and foliage, also to the front is a working well. To the side, separated by a running stream and two small bridges is the potential equestrian plot measuring approximately 0.75 acres. Due to the stream and foliage, natural borders are formed, we have been advised that the previous owner kept livestock on this plot. Currently situated here, is an above ground swimming pool and a summer house with veranda plus shed and outside storage. To the rear, is laid patio providing an outside hosting space with a fish pond adjacent. This leads to laid to lawn grass with several trees to give a natural outlook.
This is one not to be missed, please call us on to book your viewing today.
