Two/Three Bedroom Period Home in Swaffham

White Cottage is a detached period home offering character, flexibility, and a setting which balances privacy with convenience. Situated within easy walking distance of Swaffham’s town centre, the property provides a lifestyle which combines doorstep amenities with a private, south-facing garden tucked away to the rear.

The house features two bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities, along with a study which can serve as a third bedroom if required. The arrangement of reception spaces – sitting room, dining room, and garden room – ensures options for both relaxed living and more formal occasions, with the sitting and dining rooms each benefiting from a multi-fuel stove which brings warmth and character. Meanwhile, the study and two utility rooms add valuable everyday practicality.

The garden is a private, enclosed space, orientated to the south to capture the best of the light, with the church of St Peter & St Paul providing a picturesque backdrop. To the front, the property benefits from off-road parking, enhancing its appeal as a home designed for ease of living.

An outbuilding offers additional space, with potential for use as a home office or annexe, and scope for further development – subject to planning consent.

White Cottage presents an opportunity to enjoy a period home in central Swaffham, with flexible accommodation, private outdoor space, and scope for the future.
