Located to the south west of the town centre the property is found within short walking distance of the High Street and attractive Mere. The property is found within a small, select and well maintained development consisting of similar properties with a friendly and pleasing atmosphere within. The historic market town of Diss is found on the south Norfolk borders within the beautiful countryside surrounding the Waveney Valley. The town offers an extensive and diverse range of many day to day amenities and facilities with the benefit of a mainline railway station connecting to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

The "Parkside Court" development was originally constructed in the mid 1980's by Dencora as a purpose built retirement complex of some forty or so flats, with all of the buildings of traditional brick and block cavity wall construction under pitched interlocking tiled roofs, (it should also be noted the internal walls are of solid block work helping reduce heat loss and sound). Within recent years there has been the installation of replacement sealed unit upvc double glazed windows and doors. Further features of the development include a residents day lounge, communal gardens and off-road parking whilst there is an on-site residential Manager, (Monday to Friday 9am to 1pm) with alarm pulls to all of the main rooms within the flat itself. To purchase a property within the development there are certain requirements being that any oncoming purchaser must be over the age of 55 with any associated partner to be over the age of 50 years. The property is held on a long leasehold basis reverting from 99 years when the lease was originally granted in 1986. Being a leasehold property there are associated costs, with the service charge, upkeep/maintenance of the development and buildings insurance being approximately £1600.00 per annum and with the ground rent being approximately just over £100.00 per annum.

A few years later in 2007, our Long Stratton branch opened enabling us to further expand our coverage into South Norfolk towards Norwich. Since then, the Long Stratton branch has joined our Diss office as market leaders in their respective areas. From the day we first opened our door at the Diss office in 1994, we have striven to be a company that our staff are proud to work for and our teams fully share our understanding of and commitment to, never comprising the personal service that our reputation has been built upon.
