Extended detached house backing onto the former North Walsham and Dilham Canal

This substantial detached six bedroom residence offers extensive and versatile accommodation, set within a pleasant village location approximately 1.5 miles from the market town of North Walsham. The property provides flexible living space well suited to large family occupation, multi-generational living, or as a refurbishment project with scope to create a substantial country home. The ground floor accommodation comprises three reception rooms, providing ample living and entertaining space, together with a kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and pantry. To the first floor there are six well-proportioned bedrooms, two benefiting from en-suite facilities, along with a family bathroom serving the remaining bedrooms. Externally the property is approached via a gravel driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles. The property sits within lawned gardens to the front and side, offering outside space with potential for landscaping or further improvement. The property would now benefit from a programme of refurbishment. During inspection evidence of water ingress was noted within the roof space and areas of internal dampness were apparent, with indications that the main roof covering may require repair or replacement. Prospective purchasers should assume that remedial works will be required and are strongly advised to rely on their own inspections, surveys and professional advice prior to bidding. Swafield is a small village located close to the historic market town of North Walsham, which offers a range of shops, schools, supermarkets, leisure facilities and rail links to Norwich. The Norfolk Broads and the North Norfolk coastline are also within convenient reach.
