The Norfolk Agents are delighted to present Acorn Cottage, a beautiful three-bedroom character cottage, ideally positioned within the highly sought-after village of Great Massingham. Combining charming period features with a comprehensive programme of modern improvements, the property offers a stylish and well-presented home in one of Norfolk’s most desirable villages. Since purchasing the property, the current owners have transformed the home through a comprehensive programme of improvements, carefully retaining its character while introducing a host of modern upgrades. These include new plumbing and electrics, re-plastering throughout, new doors and windows, a new kitchen and bathrooms, and new flooring, creating a beautifully finished home that is ready to move straight into. The accommodation is well proportioned and versatile, with the ground floor featuring an inviting living room, alongside a wonderful open-plan kitchen/diner which forms the heart of the home. A versatile study/lobby area and useful cloakroom WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three comfortable bedrooms, served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom. Outside, the property enjoys an attractive south-facing rear garden, providing an excellent space for outdoor dining and relaxation. A selection of useful outbuildings further enhances the property, including dedicated utility space and additional storage.

ACCOMMODATION
Visitors are welcomed into the property via the wonderful open-plan kitchen/diner, which forms the heart of the home and provides an excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining. The dining area overlooks the front of the property and flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which enjoys views over the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with an attractive range of cabinetry, complemented by wood worktops and a selection of integrated appliances including an electric oven, hob with extractor and dishwasher. Adjacent to the dining area is the inviting living room, which overlooks the front of the property and provides a comfortable space for relaxing. A charming fireplace with log burner creates a wonderful focal point, adding warmth and character, while useful storage is provided within the alcoves either side. Completing the ground floor is a convenient cloakroom WC and versatile rear lobby, which could also serve as a study area.

Upstairs, the central landing provides access to three comfortable bedrooms, comprising two generous doubles and a spacious single. Bedroom one benefits from a range of fitted wardrobes, providing excellent built-in storage, while the beautifully appointed family bathroom serves all three bedrooms and features both a separate bath and shower. In addition, the loft is boarded through the centre, providing useful additional storage space.
