Situated in the charming village of Palgrave, the property is found upon a quiet and no through country lane near the village centre. Palgrave is just a mile south of Diss, surrounded by the picturesque countryside of the Waveney Valley on the north Suffolk borders. The village still retains an active local community and is centred around a delightful green, featuring many period and historic properties, local schooling, community centre offering Friday evening bar and monthly cinema screenings, fine church and is part of the Hartismere school catchment area. Within a leisurely 15 minute walk down The Lows, you ll reach the historic market town of Diss, providing a wide array of day to day amenities and facilities, including a mainline railway station offering direct services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

The property is a charming timber framed cottage, believed to be around 500 years old. As expected from a home of this age, it boasts an impressive array of period features and unique character. The ground floor offers versatile living space, including two generously sized reception rooms, both featuring inglenook fireplaces. To the rear, you ll find a spacious kitchen breakfast area that overlooks the pretty cottage gardens, with convenient access to a centrally located utility room.

To first floor level, there are three further bedrooms and a well equipped family bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation for the household. Overall, the property spans approximately 1,650 sq ft.

The cottage features attractive colour washed rendered walls beneath a clay pantile roof and is heated by way of an oil fired central heating boiler, with radiators fitted on both the ground and first floors. Additionally, the loft has been re insulated in recent years for improved efficiency. In the early 1990s, the property underwent significant improvements, including a rear extension and modernisation of the single storey extension. This renovation added extra living space, now comprising the kitchen, utility room, office and a ground floor bedroom. Throughout, there is ample built in cupboard space, a feature that s typically rare in period cottages of this kind.

Externally, the cottage enjoys a pleasing position on Lows Lane, being a sought after location within the village .
