4 bed detached house for sale

Burston Road, Diss IP21

Steeped in history and full of charm, The Old Chapel is a beautifully converted detached period home dating back to circa 1882, believed to have been sympathetically converted during the early 2000s.

Quietly positioned on a peaceful no‐through road, yet just a short distance from the heart of the village, this unique four‐bedroom residence blends characterful architecture with generous, flexible living accommodation.

The property retains many heritage features synonymous with its late-Victorian chapel origins, most notably the striking arched chapel windows, while offering well‐proportioned family living arranged over two floors.

This room is well positioned alongside a modern ground‐floor shower room, providing convenient facilities without the need for stairs.
