This four-bed thatched cottage with more than an acre in a quiet mid-Norfolk village is on sale for £950,000.

Thatched House in Whinburgh, near Dereham, was constructed in 2015 by a local thatcher and finished to a high specification.

The ground floor includes the sitting room, the garden room, the dining room, the kitchen and breakfast room, a shower room and a utility room.

The first floor contains four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The master was recently updated and has a dressing room, an en-suite and a gable window.

The cart lodge functions as a garage, with a toilet, a storage room and an office space.

There are also two sheds and a thatched summerhouse overlooks the wildlife pond

The front garden is laid to lawn with a hawthorn hedge. The back garden is also lawn, with a sandstone patio and raised vegetable garden.

The grounds, which extend to 1.25 acres, are a 'real haven' to wildlife with a generous paddock. Beyond the summer house are a copse of mature fruit trees.

Located on a quiet country lane, Thatched House is in the village on Whinburgh near Dereham. It is accessed by a timber gate and a shingled driveway.
