Characterful Cottage in Cringleford

Guide Price £300,000 - £325,000.

This charming, sympathetically extended period cottage offers an abundance of character throughout. From restored sash windows and period fireplaces to striped wooden flooring in some rooms, the property retains plenty of its original charm.

The entrance porch leads into the fine sitting room through a part-stained-glass door. A central fireplace with an ornate wooden surround and wood-burning stove creates a wonderfully cosy space during the cooler months. Beyond, a sociable dining room opens into the kitchen/breakfast room, making it an ideal space for cooking and entertaining friends and family. Flooded with natural light, the kitchen also benefits from a lovely circular window overlooking the garden. To the rear, there is a pantry, cloakroom and utility space, with access to the garden.

The first floor is home to a principal bedroom to the front and a further bedroom to the rear, complete with an en-suite bathroom. A spiral staircase within this bedroom leads up to the attic bedroom.

Outside, a brick-weave driveway provides parking to the front, while side access leads to a useful storage shed. The established rear garden enjoys a south to south-easterly aspect, with a brick-weave terrace and separate raised deck, both ideal for relaxing and enjoying the garden views. There is also a lawn, established planting, a productive apple and fig tree and a well-positioned summer house tucked into the corner.
