The Property
Glenmore Cottage is a charming Grade II Listed three bedroom mid-terrace cottage in the popular village of Foulsham. The current owners have tastefully renovated the interior whilst maintaining many period features such as exposed beams, sash windows, wooden floorboards, Pamment tiled flooring and original feature fireplaces.
The cottage offers well proportioned accommodation over three floors and a fully enclosed rear garden. On the ground floor is the kitchen / dining room and sitting room. There are two bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor and on the second floor is the principal bedroom and an office / store with sound proof room in the eaves. The property is centrally located in the village, within walking distance of the pub, village shop, and post office. Foulsham village has a thriving community and is well located to explore the north Norfolk coastline and within easy access of Norwich.
The front door, leading off the high street, opens into the cosy inviting sitting room, with plenty of room for comfortable seating, an exposed brick fireplace with a woodburning stove, built-in book shelves with cupboards underneath and a large window to the front.
The kitchen, leading from the sitting room is filled with natural light from the windows looking out to the rear garden and glazed rear door. It has painted wooden bespoke fitted units, a larder cupboard, a butler sink, wooden worktops, space for a range cooker and fridge freezer as well as plumbing for a dishwasher. Beyond the kitchen is a utility area, with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer and a door leading out to the pretty enclosed garden.
The staircase runs from the kitchen up to the landing above. The first bedroom at the top of the stairs on the left is a generous size with a window to the front, a feature fireplace, a built-in wardrobe and has plenty of room for a double bed and furniture. The second bedroom, opposite, is currently used as a dressing room and study, with a window overlooking the garden and has a feature fireplace. The family bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower, a hand wash basin, loo and a heated towel rail.
The principal bedroom, located on the second floor at the top of the house, is a fabulous light-filled room with beamed ceiling, built-in book shelves and a window facing the front. A study with great storage space has been created in the eaves, off the principal bedroom, and with a sound proof room beyond.
The Outside
The delightful, fully enclosed rear garden, extends from the kitchen with a brick paved patio which offers ample space for outdoor dining during the warmer months and an all seasons artificial grass lawn with pretty planted border and a garden shed.
Glenmore Cottage benefits from pedestrian right of way across the neighbours garden but there are no rights of access over its garden.
The cottage is accessed from the pavement to the front with unrestricted parking on the roadside and there is further parking in the village a short walk away.
Holiday Let Opportunity
Glenmore Cottage is currently a much loved family home, although could easily lend itself to be being a second home with potential to generate a second income as a holiday let. The unique character of the property, village location and close proximity to the coast make it the perfect base to explore.
