The existing footprint of around 1,300 sqft allows for quite a substantial property to replace it.

Outside The Burrows enjoys an elevated position looking across the picturesque Waveney Valley. The plot as a whole measures to approximately 1.4 acres (stms) and offers plenty of potential to site a new, replacement dwelling further into the plot to maximise the views available.

Services Mains electric and water is connected to the property. There is no central heating system present. Drainage is via a private septic tank.
