Features and description
8 Gorse Close is a modern detached brick and flint built bungalow situated in a lovely tucked away location on the outskirts of the popular market town of Fakenham. Situated at the end of a gravelled driveway shared with just 3 other similar properties, the bungalow adjoins a wooded dell to the south belonging to The Pensthorpe Natural Park.
The spacious living accommodation comprises an L-shaped entrance hall, kitchen and a large sitting room with glazed double doors to a conservatory/diner which overlooks the woodland. There is also an en suite principal bedroom, a double second bedroom, bedroom 3/study and a shower room. The property further benefits from gas-fired central heating, majority UPVC double glazed windows and doors and an electric car charging point.
Outside, there is extensive driveway parking leading to an attached garage with a low maintenance gravelled front garden and an attractively landscaped west facing garden to the rear.
North Norfolk's largest town, Fakenham is a bustling and lively community ideally located for access to the coast and also for Norwich and King's Lynn. A weekly market transforms the town, bringing in visitors across the region to enjoy a huge array of food, plants, clothing and local produce stalls set around the central market place.
Fakenham offers a diverse range of amenities including bars, restaurants, coffee shops, cinema, bowling alley, supermarkets, furniture and diy stores plus clothing retailers and a garden centre. There are infant, junior and secondary schools (including 6th form) as well as banks and a large medical centre. Situated on the River Wensum, a wide choice of picturesque walks are available with access to the National Cycle Network. Sports facilities include a fitness centre, golf, squash, tennis, indoor bowls and, not forgetting, Fakenham Racecourse.
