Property Description
PROPERTY Dating back to 1768, this lovely grade II listed cottage retains a number of original features; oak beams throughout, brick flooring in the living room and an original bread oven in the kitchen, just to name a few. The cottage has a large south facing garden with a summerhouse in the middle of it. This is a perfect place to unwind after a long week and to be surrounded by the local wildlife including muntjac deer, pheasants and bats. To the rear of the property is Roydon Fen, which has a number of nature trails to enjoy.
Both double bedrooms in the cottage are flooded with natural sunlight throughout the day with plenty of storage in both.
By The Potash would be an ideal property as a second home or used as a holiday cottage as it is currently.
The current owners have extensive documentation discussing the history of the property. Various items have been found whilst maintaining the garden that are now part of an exhibit in the local museum.
LOCATION Roydon is located on the outskirts of Diss. Diss offers excellent amenities including schools, health facilities, sports facilities, regular bus service and main line railway station to London (Liverpool Street). Norwich, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds are all about 22 miles.
SERVICES Electric heating. Drainage by private septic tank.
