Situated in Tibenham village, this property enjoys a rural setting off a small country lane shared with similar period properties. Tibenham, located in the south Norfolk countryside, is a small village still retaining a strong and active local community with amenities such as a church, well served village hall and a public house. Nearby Diss, a historic market town just 7 miles to the south, offers an extensive range of day to day amenities and facilities alongside a mainline railway station with regular services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich. Long Stratton is 6 miles to the northeast, while Wymondham and Attleborough are within 10 miles to the northwest.
This period cottage, believed to date back to 1850, underwent significant enhancements and extensions in 2004. It offers expansive and versatile accommodation in the regions of 2,000 sq ft. The original house is of clay lump construction upon a brick and flint base with a pitched timber framed clay tiled roof with the more recent extensions being of brick and block cavity wall. It has replacement sealed unit UPVC windows and doors and is heated by a modern oil-fired central heating boiler via radiators (boiler replaced in 2018). Internally, the generously sized rooms are well proportioned, flooded with natural light and beautifully presented. The main reception room, originally two rooms, features a fireplace with a cast iron stove. The second reception room, currently a snug, could serve well as a formal dining room and leads to the large kitchen/diner with extensive storage space and high-quality appliances, whilst enjoying views and access onto the rear gardens. Additionally at ground floor level there is the practicalities of a WC and boot room. At the first floor, all bedrooms are well-sized, with two having the luxury of en-suite facilities alongside the main bathroom.
Situated back from a small country lane, the property features a prominent corner plot position, accessed via a large shingled driveway providing extensive off-road parking. The property is shielded by established hedging, offering good privacy. The former garage next to the house has been converted into a spacious studio. Additionally, there is a separate utility room at the rear, believed to be separated by a partitioned wall, that could potentially be converted into annexe accommodation, subject to necessary permits. The total plot size is approximately 0.20 acres.
