3 bedroom detached houseDenmark Hill, Palgrave, IP22 1AB

A rare opportunity to purchase this character home which blends period charm with contemporary comforts. Wood Cottage, dating back to early 1500's, was originally built as a Hall House and oozes character. Originally comprised of one storey, the first floor and chimney were added later, mid 1600's. Mainly constructed of elm and oak timber frame with render to exterior. A large extension was added 1970's and this houses the large kitchen diner, first floor bedroom and bathroom. Deceptive in size, the property offers a great deal of living space not only at ground floor level, but on the first floor also. Additional planning permission had been granted for a large single storey annexe and three bay cart lodge with living accommodation above (recently expired but indicates that future development plans would be considered). The property enjoys an outstanding secluded position in a rural, yet not isolated situation, within extremely close proximity to the local town centre and found along the attractive Waveney Valley. A haven for wildlife and offering complete privacy, the plot extends to approximately .5 acres with mature trees and lawns overlooking a neighbouring orchard. The popular local pub on Fair Green is a short walk (approx. 3 minutes) and the property benefits from excellent transport links to surrounding areas, Norwich and London (Diss train station is approx. 7 minute cycle and 20 minute walk), Palgrave primary school (5 minute walk) and is within the catchment area for Hartismere Academy (the bus collects from the end of the road).
