Brief Description

A substantial semi detached character home requiring modernisation, standing in mature 0.35 acre gardens and grounds (sts) with a range of outbuildings. No chain.

Main Description

Number 132 is a wonderful opportunity to modernise a substantial semi detached family home standing in good sized gardens and grounds on the much sought-after Norwich Road in the market town of Fakenham. The property does now require a complete programme of refurbishment with well proportioned living accommodation comprising an entrance hall, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room, lounge and sitting room. There is also a conservatory and a large lean-to orangery with a hatch down to a useful cellar. The galleried first floor landing leads to 4 bedrooms, 1 with a small balcony overlooking the rear garden, and a bathroom.

Many period features remain including panelled doors, picture rails, fireplaces and exposed floorboards with the convenience of majority UPVC double glazed windows and doors and gas-fired central heating with a Rayburn in the dining room.

The mature gardens and grounds are currently in an overgrown state but amount to approximately 0.35 acre (subject to survey) with extensive driveway parking, detached double garage and a range of outbuildings, in varying states of repair.

132 Norwich Road is being offered for sale with no onward chain.
