Sluice Road, Denver, Downham Market, PE38

This detached, period home is positioned within a scenic and highly sought after Village that provides a peaceful and scenic location ideal for those looking for a quieter lifestyle. Owned by the same family for more than three decades, the house has proven to be a very successful family home although due to its location, level of accommodation and the overall versatility of its layout, its appeal will likely be to a much broader audience and purchaser. In brief, the accommodation includes 2 reception rooms on the ground floor with the addition of a garden room spanning across the rear where the tranquility of the gardens can truly be appreciated. The practical areas of both a utility and cloakroom also exist along with a kitchen/breakfast room. As well as providing a comfortable and light living space, these rooms also reflect both the building’s history and character with visible ceiling beams and brick flooring still being prominent in many of the rooms. Upstairs, there is certainly a minimum of 4 bedrooms available. However, there is an additional “through room” providing a very useful, extra area (currently described as a dressing room) whilst the main bedroom itself is a wonderful, open area boasting a galleried storage area and en-suite. Typifying that of a country cottage, the generous, peaceful and private gardens act as a generous, spacious retreat comprising lawns, areas for home growing, walled seating areas and even the original Well which would have served the property many years ago. To fulfil more modern requirements, there is also a double garage accessed by a large, motorised door to the front, accessed from the front drive. Well maintained over the years, the roof has been replaced, and rewiring has occurred, and for increased comfort and efficiency, an air source system has been introduced to feed the traditional heating system. Within walking distance, there is a surprising level of activities and amenities available along with plenty of scenic areas to be explored. This emphasises the rare opportunity presented to purchase such a warm and inviting property which still offers plenty of potential to personalise further.v
