Owned by the same family for three generations, the current residents have transformed this once 1980s-style cottage into a warm, cosy, and welcoming home.

Stepping into the property, it's immediately clear that this home has been a true labor of love. The new extension has created an inviting centerpiece: a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room. It's the heart of the home, where family and friends gather, celebrations are hosted, and countless happy memories have been made over the years.

The two reception rooms are a delightful addition as well. The cosy snug offers a sense of warmth and tranquility, while the formal dining room-or perhaps a second sitting room-provides a perfect retreat for unwinding and relaxing late into the evening.

Moving upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom-a rare and welcome feature in a cottage of this age, where bathrooms are often found on the ground floor. Two of the bedrooms are generously sized doubles, while the smaller bedroom has recently been used as a study.

The outside space has been carefully manicured to be of low maintenance. A nice patio area will create the ideal space for those summer bbq's, whilst the lawn will add to that relaxing feeling. The property comes with off road parking and a single garage too.

For those that love to explore, the bridleway walk directly onto the riverside will offer splendid views and provide a place where one can fully relax.

This modern cottage offers a warm, cosy atmosphere on a quiet, sleepy lane, yet it's just a stone's throw from major transport links. 

WIGGENHALL ST GERMANS A pretty village, Wiggenhall St Germans is only four miles from the market town of King's Lynn.

The village has a green, a fine old church and a range of amenities; including an excellent village shop, a pub on the river and bus routes to nearby towns and villages.

Perched on the banks of the River Ouse, King's Lynn has been a centre of trade and industry since the Middle Ages, and its rich history is reflected in the many beautiful buildings which still line the historic quarter.

Originally named Bishop's Lynn, during the reign of Henry VIII the town was surrendered to the crown and took the name King's Lynn. During the 14th century, Lynn was England's most important port, dominated by the Hanseatic League. Although the growth of London later eroded the port's importance, ship-building and fishing became prominent industries, the latter of which is documented at True's Yard Museum.

With more than 400 listed buildings, two warehouses – Hanse House and Marriott's Warehouse – still stand in the centre of the town, along with King's Lynn Minster and Custom House. These have appeared as stars of the screen in numerous period dramas and it's not unusual to spot a camera crew and cast on location.

With Cambridge, Peterborough and Norwich all within an hour's drive and a direct rail line into London King's Cross arriving in the capital in just 1 hour 40 minutes, King's Lynn, and the surrounding areas, continues to attract a growing number of professionals seeking an easy commuter route.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 13, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
