Available to the market for the first time in several decades, Folly House offers a new owner a one -off opportunity to acquire a characterful period house, positioned close to all of amenities of the town. The property would now benefit from some modernisation and has the advantage of well-proportioned principal rooms; an excellent room layout configuration with a substantial ‘sunroom’ on the southern elevation.

The house offers plenty of space which backs onto a truly stunning rear garden, which is level and mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs/trees, offering a high level of seclusion.

The ground floor comprises of the front door leading into a wonderful sitting/dining room with and aspect over the front garden and Tennyson Road. Built in storage has been installed either side of the chimney breast. There is a fireplace and door leading through into the good-sized kitchen, with an extensive range of wall and base units with a gas fired aga. There is a back door from the kitchen into the rear garden and an internal door to the useful lobby that contains the central heating boiler. The conservatory/sunroom is an excellent size and is a perfect entertaining space for all year-round use. An adjoining dining room/living room with fireplace is a superb room which is currently being used as a further sitting room. There is a useful ground floor WC with shower and wash hand basin.

On the first floor there are two large double bedrooms with a family bathroom with WC and wash hand basin. A third smaller bedroom enjoys an attractive view across the large, south facing garden. Two of the three bedrooms have good-sized built-in storage wardrobes.

Outside Folly House has an unusually large south facing garden, which is a huge attraction to this property. It sits outside of the Yarmouth Conservation Zone and could benefit from being extended (subject to obtaining necessary consents). There are outbuildings along the western boundary and a high-quality studio with power & light. A further garden room/summer house is located further down the garden.
