3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

Since 1978, the current owners have called this bungalow home. It's been a cherished space for the family, but they feel now is the time to downsize. Fordcombe Lodge is a spacious bungalow on a large plot, with the potential to become a beloved home forsomeone else.

Living here has been peaceful and ideal for raising children, with plenty of wildlife and friendly neighbours. The lounge has been a favorite spot, offering lovely views over the garden, and the kitchen/dining area has been a hub for family gatherings.

The property features three bedrooms and a main bathroom. Originally a four-bedroom property, one bedroom was converted into a dressing room to better suit personal needs.

The outdoor space is well-established, with a gravel drive leading to a double garage for off-road parking. The front garden has flower beds and hedges, creating a serene atmosphere and to the rear of the property, you will find a mature garden with raised vegetable beds, flower beds, shrubs, a lovely lawn, and a patio area, perfect for summer barbecues.

Fordcombe Lodge is not only a spacious bungalow on a large plot, but it also offers great walks nearby, such as the Sugar Fen – an 80-hectare nature reserve, waiting to be enjoyed by the new owners from the moment they move in.

POTT ROW

A small village about 5 miles east of King's Lynn, Pott Row merges with its neighbouring villages of Grimston, Roydon and Congham to form a wonderful community enjoying the best of countryside living with easy access to amenities.

Grimston has a general store and Post Office, a medical centre, and an outstanding first school. Residents and visitors are spoilt for places to eat and drink, with the fine Congham Hall Hotel and Restaurant and The Anvil Inn pub in Congham, the Three Horseshoes and the UnionJack pubs in Roydon, as well as the Old Bell guest house in Grimton. There's sure to be something to suit all tastes.

Congham holds the annual World Championship Snail Racing. The snails race on a circular course and the first to reach a marker close to the edge is deemed the world champion. Ready, steady...slow!

King's Lynn is easily accessible from the villages and is situated on the banks of the River Ouse. It has been a hub of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is evident in the many beautiful buildings that still mark the historic quarter.

The town offers an excellent array of shops, supermarkets, dining options, a ten-pin bowling alley, swimming pool, football club, cinema, theatre, and three impressive churches. Various essential services are available within the town, including the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, police station, fire station, primary schools, three secondary schools, college, and a library.
