The Property
'Poppies' is believed to date back several hundred years and makes a wonderful character home. The house has been a private residence for a number of years but prior it was used as the gamekeepers lodge for the neighbouring Hall.
A gothic heavy timbered front door opens out and provides access into the pitched porchway. The porch then opens into the sitting room which is sizeable with a number of period features including a fireplace with inset wood burning stove, exposed beams and wooden flooring. A roof light situated at the end of the room allows light to flood in from the west elevation. At the west end of the room is a built in bookcase and two gothic French doors, which open out into the cottage gardens. At the east end of the house is the master bedroom, which has views down the garden to southern aspect. An inner hallway provides access to the rear of the house where you will find the second bedroom and the bathroom. At the rear of the house is the kitchen, breakfast room & utility room. The kitchen has been stylishly upgraded with painted wooden cabinets, space for appliances and tiled flooring. Timber beams brace across the ceiling providing a cosy cottage feel. The room is open plan to the breakfast room which has further painted cabinets and a doorway into the utility.
Outside
Poppies is set back from the road with a long sweeping gravelled driveway which leads up to the house. At the front of the garden is a large gravelled parking area, perfect for trailers or horseboxes. The main garden is situated to the front of the house with a wide range of flower beds, mature fruit trees and shrubs, with the rest of the garden being principally laid to lawn. A small stream winds through the grounds and naturally divides the garden. At the rear of the house is an attractive brickweave courtyard, enclosed by stone walls and mature hedging. The courtyard is a perfect entertaining space and comprises a built in BBQ and a well. Situated adjacent to the house is the detached barn (9ft3 x 18ft9), which would make an ideal annexe or workshop. Other outbuildings include a set of two stables (11ft8 x 19ft11) and a glass greenhouse. In total the plot extends to 0.32 acres (sts) with mature hedging to all borders.
Location
Walcot Green is a favoured area which combines an appealing rural aspect with the proximity to the well served market town of Diss in the centre of which lies around a mile away. Diss itself is a popular market town with a vibrant high street and a wide range of amenities and services. The town has schooling to sixth form level, an excellent medical centre and modern leisure facilities.
