Lodge Road, Feltwell - Ref:100335011554

SITUATION & LOCATION Gardeners Cottage is a charming detached period house situated on the outskirts of the well served West Norfolk village of Feltwell. Occupying a unique location adjacent the historic East Hall and its gardens, the house is believed to have once been the Keepers cottage to the Hall. The property is approached via a long driveway off Lodge road that also serves the Hall (now converted into apartments) and a small row of bungalows known as East Hall Bungalows.

The property is exceptionally well presented throughout having been refurbished, modernised and extended by the present owners who have lived in the property for a number of years. In 1989 the owners built a first floor addition above the existing kitchen and in early 2000's a two storey addition was also constructed. The property now boasts spacious and comfortable accommodation over two floors including five bedrooms, one with an en suite. The ground floor includes a spacious lounge with wood-burning stove as well as a sun room and cosy snug/office. The large well fitted kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room and there is a separate useful cloakroom. Other features include full oil fired central heating and Upvc double glazing.

The house occupies a generous established plot with mature enclosed gardens that enjoy a high degree of privacy to the rear. The courtyard area within the garden provides good parking for a variety of vehicles and includes a number of useful buildings including a double and single garage and a large timber workshop.

The sale of this lovely home offers a wonderful opportunity to those purchasers seeking an individual period property of good proportions in a unique village location and early viewings are recommended.
