We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
A Three Bedroom Semi-Detached Bungalow With Approximately 6 Acres (Stsm). The Norfolk Agents are pleased to present this much-loved three bedroom semi-detached bungalow.
Tucked away within approximately 6 acres (stsm) of land, this property offers a rare combination of practicality, space, useful outbuildings and extensive grounds.
The property has been cherished by the same family since the 1960s and, while retaining the feel and proportions of a much-loved home, it has been thoughtfully refurbished and improved over the past ten years.
Approached via ample parking, the property immediately offers excellent practical appeal, with two car ports, two wood stores and extensive additional parking, making it particularly well suited to those requiring space for vehicles, equipment, hobbies or rural pursuits.
Accommodation The bungalow itself provides well-proportioned and versatile accommodation, with the entrance hallway leading through to the various reception rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms.
The spacious living room provides a comfortable place to relax, while the separate sitting room offers further valuable living space and leads through to a bright garden room, providing a lovely connection with the surrounding grounds.
The bespoke fitted kitchen is a particular feature of the home, having been designed to provide a practical and attractive working space and benefiting from a skylight which floods the room with natural light.
There are three bedrooms in total, with the principal bedroom benefiting from its own en-suite bathroom, together with a further family wet room serving the remaining bedrooms.
The property has seen considerable investment over recent years, including refurbishment throughout and the installation of a new roof in 2011.
Heating is provided by an oil-fired central heating system as well as a multi-fuel stove installed in July, which also benefits from a back boiler providing dual heat distribution.
The hot water cylinder was replaced in 2026, while additional improvements include a water softener and filter and a further water storage tank within the loft.
The property is also fitted with a secure alarm system and a 1000 litre diesel tank.
Outside Outside, the property really comes into its own, with approximately six acres (stsm) offering an exceptional amount of space, privacy and versatility.
The land presents an excellent opportunity for an equestrian enthusiast, particularly as the current owners have previously kept horses here.
There is plenty of scope for grazing, turnout and enjoying the outdoors, while the overall setting provides the space and freedom that is increasingly difficult to find.
Adding further appeal is the substantial outbuilding, extending to approximately 40ft x 60ft and incorporating a pit.
The workshop and other shelters could be used for stabling, tack storage and associated equestrian needs, while the substantial space also offers enormous versatility for vehicle storage, machinery, hobbies, equipment or general storage, subject to any necessary consents.
Together with the ample parking, two car ports and two wood stores, the external facilities make this a particularly practical property for those requiring space for horses, vehicles, projects, work or rural pursuits.
For the equestrian enthusiast, the location is particularly special.
The forestry is exceptionally accessible, providing excellent opportunities for off-road riding, with at least 21 different rides to enjoy.
Hacking in the Drymere forestry area is outstanding, with the soil being well-drained and sandy, creating particularly good riding conditions.
The combination of extensive land at home and such wonderful riding immediately accessible from the property makes this a particularly exciting opportunity for anyone looking to enjoy an equestrian lifestyle.
Combining a much-loved home with approximately six acres (stsm), extensive parking, substantial outbuildings and a wealth of useful improvements, this is a property offering far more than the average bungalow.
It provides the opportunity to enjoy a peaceful rural lifestyle with the space, facilities and flexibility to accommodate horses, vehicles, hobbies, work and a wide range of other interests - a truly individual property that has been lovingly cared for and is now ready for its next chapter.
Location The property is situated in Drymere, just outside the popular market town of Swaffham, in a wonderfully peaceful part of rural Norfolk.
Drymere is a small, unspoilt hamlet surrounded by open countryside, woodland and the characteristic landscape of the Brecks, offering a sense of seclusion while remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities.
The nearby village of Beachamwell is only a short distance away and provides a strong sense of community, centred around its attractive village green.
Local amenities include the Great Danes Country Inn, Beachamwell Memorial Village Hall, the village green and recreation area, St Mary's historic round-tower church, together with an extensive network of public footpaths and bridleways.
For a wider range of amenities, Swaffham is close by and offers an excellent selection of shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, public houses and leisure facilities, together with schooling and the popular weekly market.
The town provides all the main day-to-day conveniences while retaining its traditional market-town character. The setting is particularly appealing to those who enjoy the outdoors.
The property backs onto a quiet, well-regarded equestrian centre, called Forest Edge Arena, which is adjacent to the property's land.
This creates a peaceful rural outlook, while the surrounding forestry provides access to a network of woodland walks, tracks and rides, making the area ideal for walking, dog walking, cycling and enjoying the countryside.
The wider Breckland area is renowned for its woodland and open landscapes, with numerous routes to explore.
Despite the rural surroundings, the property remains well positioned for access to the surrounding towns and road network.
Downham Market is approximately 12 miles away, providing further shopping and leisure facilities as well as a mainline railway station with direct services towards Cambridge and London King's Cross.
Overall, the location offers an appealing balance of peaceful country living and accessibility, with the privacy and tranquillity of Drymere, the community amenities of nearby Beachamwell, the broader facilities of Swaffham and extensive opportunities to enjoy the surrounding woodland and countryside right on the doorstep.
