Location

The property is tucked away along The Entry, opposite Diss Church of England Junior School and just a short walk into the busy and thriving market place. Diss is a market town on the Norfolk/Suffolk border with a surprising number of independent specialist shops and businesses providing a wide variety of goods and services including three national brand supermarkets. The town has well regarded schools, good sporting and leisure facilities and a wide range of social activities. Diss rail station (roughly 10 min walk away) lies on the Norwich to London Liverpool Street mainline, a journey to London scheduled to take around 90 minutes. The regional, cultural and business centre of Norwich lies approximately 25 miles to the north.

The property

This former school room is thought to date back to the early 1900s - formerly part of Entry School House, its interesting historic has seen the property used as a gym, maternity hospital and latterly a private residence.

The accommodation now totals 915 sq.ft with mezzanine bedroom space overlooking the kitchen / living space. Due to the size and character of the property and being so close to the town centre, The Old School Room has a wide buyer reach, making a great home for singles and couples or holiday home investment.
