Description

Lavender Cottage is an attractive three-bedroom detached bungalow occupying an exceptionally private plot of approximately 3.8 acres (stms) in the rural Norfolk village of Reymerston. Offering generous accommodation, substantial outside space and a high degree of privacy, the property presents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a detached single-storey home with land, while remaining conveniently positioned for the market towns of Hingham and Dereham. The property is offered chain free and combines spacious, practical accommodation with the flexibility that comes from such a sizeable plot.

The layout is well suited to modern family life, with two substantial reception areas providing plenty of space and enjoy views towards the gardens. At the heart of the home is a generous kitchen/dining space, providing a sociable area for family meals and gatherings. The accommodation extends to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, with two benefiting from their own en-suite shower rooms, alongside a separate family bathroom. A useful utility room and separate WC add to the practicality of the layout, while the overall scale of the bungalow provides plenty of scope for comfortable single-storey living.

One of Lavender Cottage’s defining features is the land. The property occupies approximately 3.8 acres, offering considerable privacy and a wealth of possibilities for those looking for more than simply a house and garden. The grounds provide space for gardens, while the amount of land also gives the property potential to appeal to those seeking an equestrian lifestyle, subject to the necessary planning consents. The combination of the existing accommodation, extensive plot and potential for further use makes this a particularly flexible property for a wide range of buyers. The property also benefits from a double garage and ample off-road parking, providing excellent provision for vehicles, storage and equipment.

With its chain-free position, approximately 3.8-acre private plot, three double bedrooms, two en-suite shower rooms, two reception rooms, double garage and ample parking, Lavender Cottage represents an appealing opportunity to acquire a spacious detached bungalow in a desirable Norfolk countryside setting, with the added benefit of being within convenient reach of both Hingham and Dereham.

REYMERSTON
Positioned within the Breckland countryside, Reymerston is a peaceful Norfolk village conveniently located around six miles from Dereham and three miles from Hingham. The village itself has a community shop and village hall, while the surrounding lanes and countryside offer an appealing rural setting with easy access to neighbouring market towns and villages.

Dereham is a traditional Norfolk market town known for its mix of Georgian architecture, independent shops and everyday amenities. The twice-weekly market, held on Tuesdays and Fridays, remains at the heart of the town, complemented by a good selection of cafés, restaurants and local businesses. Historic attractions include the Mid-Norfolk Railway heritage line, Dereham Windmill and Bishop Bonner’s Cottage, believed to date back to 1502.

For dining out, Dereham offers a variety of popular eateries, while nearby Brisley is home to the award-winning Brisley Bell, a well-regarded country pub known for its seasonal menus, gardens and welcoming atmosphere.

The area is well served for everyday living, with local schools, supermarkets, leisure facilities and a golf club all close by. Reymerston also enjoys excellent road links to Norwich, approximately 20 miles away, while the North Norfolk coastline, including Wells-next-the-Sea, can be reached in under an hour, making the location ideal for enjoying both countryside and coast.
