Worthing, Dereham

Nestled in the heart of Worthing's charming village, there's a semi-detached period house with three bedrooms that effortlessly blends history and modern comfort. As you approach, the fusion of elegance and charm becomes apparent, creating a unique atmosphere.

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a warm and character-filled home. Original beams adorn the ground floor, and the inviting living space features charming pament flooring. This residence is more than just a house; it's a living testament to the craftsmanship of a bygone era.

The living room is extremely cosy, especially during chilly evenings. The fireplace crackles, and the room buzzes with lively conversations, making it a favourite spot for the owners.

If the living room is for relaxation, the formal dining room is for entertaining. Family and friends gather around the table, creating special moments-particularly on Christmas day, when the space comes alive with food, wine, and festive joy.

Additionally, there's a separate reception room currently utilized as a study. This versatile space could serve as a snug or playroom, and its separate entrance adds practicality, especially for those working from home.

Upstairs, three spacious double bedrooms await. The primary bedroom is bathed in natural light, thanks to two large windows and an exposed beam that adds character. The upper level boasts the rarity of two separate bathrooms, a convenient feature for a property of this size and age.

Outside you'll find the enchanting garden, a retreat where meticulous greenery surrounds a well-kept lawn. A paved area provides a perfect setting for outdoor gatherings-a space where stories and laughter come together beneath the open sky. 

WORTHING Worthing is a small pretty Breckland village set alongside the River Blackwater, a tributary of the Wensum. In the heart of this community lies an old bridge over the river, and buildings that used to house a mill and a thriving tannery. It is surrounded by luscious farmland, including grazing for a small herd of Highland cattle. The surrounding countryside offers a peaceful escape from the bustle of modern life, and acts as a haven for wildlife, especially in the nearby Hoe Common and Hoe Rough, an NWT Nature Reserve. Many of the homes in the village are, as is this one, old characterful and attractive cottages, and the beautiful but tiny round tower church of St Margarets lies at one end. Historically, Worthing is known for the gold ceremonial Roman helmet found by children playing in the river, and now housed at the Norwich Castle Museum.

The adjacent village of North Elmham has a primary school, pub, hotel, doctors surgery, post office, tearoom and convenience store.

Only 6 miles away is the busy market town of Dereham, with a good range of shops, golf club, leisure centre, community hospital, theatre and cinema. It has a twice-weekly market, and is also home to the Mid-Norfolk heritage railway station.
