While the property features a traditional front door, it is rarely used, with most visitors opting to enter through the welcoming back door. This entrance leads directly into the kitchen, a space that becomes the heart of the home during the summer months. Here, the garden offers an inviting setting for outdoor gatherings, with garden furniture perfectly positioned on a paved terrace.
The current owner has lovingly restored the property, retaining and enhancing its historic charm. Exquisite original features, including exposed wooden beams and brick-weaved flooring, are highlighted throughout the home, adding to its unique appeal.
There are two sitting rooms, each with its own log burner, providing cosy spaces for relaxation. Additionally, the ground floor includes a versatile third reception room, currently used as a hobby room, alongside a utility room and a convenient downstairs W/C.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned double bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations, complemented by a stylish family bathroom.
The expansive rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, surrounded by mature flower beds, hedges, and trees, creating a private oasis. At the garden's end, stunning views of the Norfolk countryside provide a breathtaking backdrop. To the front of the property there is ample parking for several cars, and another good sized lawned area with more mature hedging.
ILLINGTON Illington is a small hamlet located in the Breckland district of Norfolk, and is part of a rural area known for its scenic landscapes and agricultural background.
Illington has a small population, contributing to its quiet and close-knit community atmosphere. The architecture in Illington primarily consists of traditional English country homes and cottages, widely dispersed across the landscape.
Illington's rural setting makes it a picturesque location, ideal for those interested in exploring the English countryside, enjoying nature, or learning about local history and traditional village life. Despite its small size, Illington contributes to the rich tapestry of rural communities that define much of Norfolk's character.
The nearby market town of Thetford benefits from its well connected transport links, with trains twice hourly to Norwich and London and hourly to Cambridge and Peterborough. There is an excellent range of facilities and good schools, a twice weekly market and Thetford Forest is just minutes away which is a haven for wildlife and offers endless miles of walks, activities including Go Ape, and picnic areas. It is also a popular location for performances by international music acts.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
