River Bank, Ten Mile Bank, Downham Market, Norfolk, PE38

New to the market is this charming three-bedroom cottage, set within the peaceful semi-rural village of Ten Mile Bank. Over recent years, the current owners have thoughtfully renovated the property throughout, creating a beautifully presented home that blends character with modern comfort.

Inside, the accommodation includes two inviting reception rooms: a spacious lounge overlooking the front of the property, which opens seamlessly into a large dining room featuring an attractive open fireplace. The modern, well-proportioned kitchen offers ample space for appliances, with a picture-perfect view from the sink across the open fields that stretch behind the home.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a light and airy atmosphere, positioned at the rear to make the most of those uninterrupted field views, and complete with a built-in wardrobe. Two further generously sized bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, fitted with a WC, wash hand basin, and bath.

Outside, a gravelled driveway provides off-road parking for up to three vehicles. The generous rear garden, extending to approximately one-third of an acre (STMS), is mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of mature plants, shrubs, and wildflower beds. The property also benefits from a smallholding licence and backs directly onto open farmland, offering exceptional privacy and picturesque vistas.

It lies between the towns of Downham Market and Littleport, offering scenic views of the surrounding fenland landscape.

Its name derives from its location approximately ten miles from Denver Sluice, a key point in the region’s drainage system.
