A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase this charming two bedroom cottage, located within the popular market town of Watton. Tucked away from the road yet conveniently situated within walking distance of the town centre and its amenities, this delightful home enjoys a peaceful setting and is approached via an elongated front garden that creates an attractive and dramatic entrance to a row of characterful cottages steeped in history and period charm.

The dining room also benefits from a useful pantry cupboard and staircase rising to the first floor.

Leading from the dining room is the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units, a double oven and electric hob.

Outside, the generous front garden is a particular feature of the home and will appeal to those seeking a larger plot. Beautiful brick-built raised beds are filled with colourful flowers and mature shrubs, creating a wonderful cottage garden atmosphere. The remaining garden has been laid to patio, forming a private courtyard-style space ideal for relaxing, dining outdoors or entertaining during the warmer months. Keen gardeners will appreciate the timber shed and greenhouse, providing excellent opportunities for growing plants, vegetables and flowers.
