Property description
Sowerbys are pleased to offer this attractive end-terraced town house, conveniently located close to Dereham town centre; which comes to the market in need of general improvement throughout. Dating back to around 1830, the property enjoys the kind of kerb appeal synonymous with the Regency period; with red brick elevations and sash windows behind a row of recently renovated wrought-iron railings. This house is being sold as a refurbishment project, providing a buyer with the opportunity to create a spacious family home over three floors and further scope to develop the well sized loft space. At present, the accommodation comprises entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen/dining room, garden room and cloakroom on the ground floor, with staircases leading up to the first floor and down to the lower ground/basement level. The lower ground floor offers exceptional potential, with two reception rooms (both with windows up to street level) and generous storage space. The first floor landing has doors opening to three bedrooms and the family bathroom, from where there is access and space for a staircase in to the roof void. Outside, there is a pleasant rear garden with space for a car to be parked on a section of concrete hard standing. The property is offered with no chain.
DEREHAM Dereham is a busy market town mixing both the new with the old. Free parking allows you time to stroll around seeking out the restaurants and cafes or for an afternoon shop. There are museums, a leisure centre, golf course and schools within the town, or for the nature lovers take a stroll along the Neatherd Moor and the Vicarage Meadow. Slightly further afield are the ruins of the Saxon Cathedral at North Elmham, the wildlife and Dinosaur Parks, Pensthorpe, a bird lovers paradise and Thetford Forest Park. Norwich has good local transport links with the town and has an international airport and a mainline rail link to Liverpool Street, London.
