Description

Southern Comfort is a substantial four-bedroom detached bungalow set within the village of Colton, offering generous internal space, a flexible layout and clear scope for modernisation to suit individual taste and requirements.

Extending to approximately 1,500 sq. ft. the property is arranged to support a variety of lifestyles, with four double bedrooms and three separate reception areas. This configuration lends itself equally well to family occupation, multi-generational living or those requiring dedicated work-from-home space.

The accommodation includes a spacious sitting room and additional reception rooms that can be adapted for formal dining, study use or hobby space. A conservatory provides further versatility and garden connection. The kitchen is supported by a notably generous utility/boot room, practical for rural living, pets, outdoor pursuits or busy family routines.

Southern Comfort presents a clear opportunity for improvement and updating. For buyers looking to modernise and add value, the existing footprint and layout provide a strong foundation to create a contemporary home tailored to their own specification.

Externally, the property benefits from a double garage and ample off-road parking via an in-and-out driveway, ensuring ease of access and convenience for multiple vehicles. The rear garden is privately enclosed, offering a secure and sheltered outdoor environment with space for entertaining, gardening or recreation.

Colton remains well positioned for commuting and connectivity, with straightforward access to both the A47 and A11, linking to Norwich, Dereham and wider Norfolk destinations.
