The Property

The Old Reading Room comprises a detached, period house of red brick external elevations, occupying a delightful position, overlooking the village green. The property was originally constructed as its name suggests, to provide the village with access to literature and newspapers. The building was converted in recent years to a dwelling and has been recently refurbished to provide a comfortable home. Within the last couple of months the vendors have installed brand new UPVC double glazed windows throughout and a new gas fired boiler.



The entrance hall is accessed from a side door and has a staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room is situated to the front of the property and has two windows to the front elevation. The kitchen/diner is well fitted with ceramic sink set into work tops with drawers and cupboards under, a range of matching wall units, inset four ring halogen hob with electric oven under and extractor hood, gas fired boiler for the central heating and hot water, windows to the rear elevation and glazed door leading out onto the rear garden. On the first floor there are two good sized bedrooms and a bathroom with panelled bath, wash basin and WC.



Outside

The front boundary is enclosed by iron railings with an iron entrance gate to the left hand side of the property, leading to the front door and ultimately to the rear garden. To the rear of the house there is a delightful courtyard garden which is enclosed to the rear by a high flint wall and offers a good degree of privacy.



Location

The property is set in the centre of Palgrave village with views over the picturesque green. Palgrave itself has a village hall and primary school. Being just outside of Diss, the proximity of the house is within walking distance to the town and many of the facilities which include a Tesco, Morrisons, WH Smith, Carphone Warehouse, Marstons Inn, Beales, Barclays, HSBC, and Boots, to name a few.
