Back Street, Garboldisham

Located within the attractive and desirable south Norfolk village of Garboldisham, the property is perfectly positioned off a quiet country lane. Set on a spacious corner plot, it backs directly onto open fields, offering outstanding, far-reaching rural views. This tranquil spot lies within the older part of the village, surrounded by beautiful neighbouring period properties. Garboldisham is a traditional, active, and historic village, affiliated with the nearby hamlets of Smallworth and Broomescot Common. Situated just off the A1066, it provides easy access to Diss (seven miles to the east) and Thetford (nine miles to the west). The popular market town of Bury St Edmunds is also highly accessible, lying just 17 miles to the south-west. Locally, the village boasts excellent amenities, including a convenient village shop, a village hall, a historic church, and good schooling.

Thought to have been built in the early 1960s, this is the first time the property has become available for sale, having remained in the same family since being built. The property is of traditional build and offers spacious, well-laid-out living space of approximately 1,100 sq ft, which has been well maintained over the years. In around 2010, solar panels were installed (which are owned outright) and benefit from a feed-in tariff that provides reduced rates and a quarterly income.

The accommodation is well-arranged over two floors and has been thoughtfully adapted over time. An entrance leads to a generously sized hallway, which provides access to a small room previously used as a study/office. Beyond this, there is access to the main reception room and kitchen. The reception area is essentially two rooms in one, offering a generous space that serves perfectly as a lounge and diner. It enjoys a southerly aspect, with views and direct access to the rear gardens. The well-presented kitchen offers excellent storage space. Located just off the kitchen is a WC and a utility area with space for a washing machine. Completing the ground floor is a lovely garden room that boasts outstanding, far-reaching views over the adjoining rural countryside. On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect with stunning, tranquil views over the rural countryside, alongside ample fitted storage cupboards. The second bedroom is equally generous in size. The third bedroom, albeit smaller, remains a comfortable, well-proportioned size in its own right. Finally, the family bathroom is well-presented and features a classic three-piece suite in white.

Externally, the property is set back from the road on a corner plot, measuring in the region of 0.15 of an acre in total. There is extensive off-road parking on a resin driveway that leads to the rear of the property. The established, landscaped gardens back onto rural farmland, offering tranquil views over the surrounding countryside. The previous owners bred fish for a number of years, and as such, there is a large outbuilding (measuring 22 ft x 36 ft) featuring three tanks, two approx 6 ft deep and one approx 8 ft deep, below the decking that previously housed koi carp. This outbuilding offers a variety of potential uses, but could equally be removed by a prospective purchaser to create additional garden space if desired.
