There are doors leading to the master bedroom and kitchen and the room further benefits from a built-in corner unit with cupboard. The kitchen is very much the heart of the house and features terracotta tiled flooring, a variety of units with wooden worktops and an inset sink with drainer, space for oven and splashback tiling, there is a former window opening and archway leading into the dining room which also enjoys a warm aspect with window to the side and door leading to a sunny conservatory/garden room. There are further doors which lead to a small lobby with porch beyond and the second bedroom which features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, two windows and pine flooring. The larger of the three bedrooms lies to the front of the property and can be accessed from either the sitting room or kitchen, this room enjoys a good degree of privacy and an attractive outlook. The third bedroom also lies to the front of the property and features airing cupboard and pine flooring. There is a family bathroom which features a matching three piece suite comprising close-coupled WC, panelled bath with shower over and hand wash basin; there is potential to add a separate shower cubicle should any purchaser wish. The property has undergone a scheme of renovation over recent years to include partial rewiring, a new oil fired heating system and complete redecoration throughout. There is secondary glazing throughout and the property further benefits from not being listed.
Outside
To the front of the property is an enclosed lawned area with mature hedging, a front gate and driveway parking for two cars (this could easily be enlarged if required), there are double wooden gates leading to a further parking space, there is also a gate to one side adjacent to the porch which leads to the rear garden. To the rear of the property is a beautifully tended garden which enjoys a high degree of privacy and a particularly sunny aspect. Immediately to the rear of the cottage is primarily laid to lawn and enclosed by a variety of plants, trees and shrubs plus a useful kitchen herb garden. Impressive mature conifer trees with sunken pond and small terrace create an archway leading through to a further area of garden which is currently used as an impressive vegetable plot with a variety of fruit trees. There is a greenhouse and two sheds and the garden tapers to a point at the far end. A particular feature of the property, the garden offers an ideal haven for those who are 'green fingered' but also poses an opportunity to further enlarge the property by extension, subject to planning.
Location
The property is located in the sought after village of Starston close to the bustling market town of Harleston, Starston is located within a conservation area and is highly regarded with a beck which meanders through the village, passing the village-owned meadow and Jubilee Hall.
