Key information
Property description & features
- Period Cottage with Private Garden
- Half an Acre Plot (STMS)
- Village Location with Field Views
- Partially Renovated with Potential to Modernise
- No Onward Chain
Believed to originally have been a worker's cottage for the Houghton estate, this pretty semi-detached cottage has been partially renovated. With a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom, the current owner has begun efforts to improve and modernise the cottage, adding a more contemporary feel to this period cottage. The remaining rooms such as the spacious living/dining room and bedrooms are left untouched for the next custodian to put their own stamp on them.
The cottage boasts a wonderful array of character features, with the likes of an original front door, and the living room benefits from a large inglenook fireplace. Subject to obtaining the necessary permissions, the cottage holds enormous potential to extend, turning what is currently a modest-sized home into a property better suited to modern-day living.
One of the most important features at 2 Mill Lane Cottages, is its garden. Sat on a plot of circa half an acre, the cottage is surrounded by fields and wildlife, and accessed down a private track. There is a great sense of privacy and seclusion here, leaving the next owner to open up the potential of what could be created here.
This cottage affords the next owner the opportunity to buy a slice of Norfolk countryside, and to put their own stamp on this period property.
WEST RUDHAM West Rudham is a small village on the A148 between the market town of Fakenham and King's Lynn. The village has a junior school and The Dukes Head pub serving traditional ales. West Rudham is well located for the North Norfolk Coast with its miles of unspoilt coastline.
There are good secondary schools at Fakenham and King's Lynn. The north Norfolk coast is a short drive away.
Coast or country? If your heart is set on the gentle bustle of a market town, but within easy reach of the sea, Fakenham is top of the list. While sandy beaches are just ten miles away, the market town is perfectly positioned halfway between King's Lynn and Norwich with easy reach to Holt and Swaffham, making for an easy commute.
Out of working hours, there's plenty to keep you entertained including the thriving independent Central Cinema, a perennial favourite with locals. Enjoy a fun glass-blowing session with the kids at Langham Glass, reconnect with nature at Pensthorpe or blow the cobwebs with a walk at nearby Sculthorpe Moor.
For something fancier, dress up to the nines and enjoy a day out and a flutter at Fakenham Racecourse, or team up with your playing pals for a round at Fakenham Golf Club, set in and around the racecourse. And Thursford is just four miles away with its magnificent collection of steam engines and organs – a visit to its Christmas spectacular gives a West End theatre excursion a run for its money.
