Dereham Road, Pudding Norton, NR21

18 Dereham Road is a rare renovation opportunity situated on the outskirts of the rural village of Pudding Norton and less than a 15 minute walk to the centre of the nearby market town of Fakenham. The property does now require a complete programme of refurbishment with accommodation comprising an entrance lobby, sitting room, kitchen/diner with a walk-in pantry and a rear porch.  Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.

Further benefits include countryside views to the rear, original pine 4 panel internal doors and period fireplaces.  Outside, there is a lawned front garden with a good sized south westerly facing rear garden with a brick built outbuilding and WC.

Offered for sale with no onward chain, once refurbished 18 Dereham Road would make an ideal home for a single person, couple or a small family in a pleasant rural location yet close to all of the amenities on offer in Fakenham.

The village of Pudding Norton borders the river Wensum and is within 1 1/2 miles of the market of town of Fakenham to the north. Pudding Norton comprises some 1,400 acres of predominantly farmland and includes Fakenham Racecourse.

Fakenham is often referred to as the “gateway” to North Norfolk being only a short drive to the beautiful North Norfolk coastline some 11 miles away. Once renowned for its successful printing industry, Fakenham is now better known for Norfolk’s only National Hunt racecourse and its popular weekly markets. Fakenham boasts several supermarkets, library, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries, a good selection of restaurants, bowling alley, cinema and infants’, junior and high school with 6th form college. Surrounding areas are all well serviced by bus routes with direct rail links to Cambridge and London from King’s Lynn and Norwich.
