A four-bedroom cottage with a separate one-bedroom annexe and about two acres of grounds is for sale in Wiveton at £1,699,000.

Selling agent Jackson-Stops said: "Myrtle Cottage is a beautifully presented home, sympathetically renovated by the current owners over the past couple of years.

"The result is a wonderful blend of period character and contemporary living, with thoughtfully designed spaces that are both stylish and highly practical."

Entering the home, there is a hallway and a shower room fitted with Lusso sanitaryware, including a WC, vanity unit and walk-in shower.

The living room is located in the original part of the cottage, which is believed to have once been a Georgian shop.

It retains period features including a window seat and fireplace fitted with a Contura wood-burning stove.

Connected directly to the kitchen, the open-plan space includes bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, a glazed roof lantern, limestone flooring and a second Contura wood-burning stove.

A newly fitted oak staircase leads to the first floor, where there are four double bedrooms.
