A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Acorn Cottage is a two-bedroom detached house in Uggeshall, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 8AA). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C.
