Offering immediate income and long-term security, this well-located six-bedroom detached home sits comfortably within the popular Three Score area of Norwich, a neighbourhood known for its balance of city access and everyday convenience.
Set on a generous plot and already operating successfully as an occupied HMO, the property has been thoughtfully adapted to suit modern shared living, with light-filled communal spaces, a sociable garden outlook and flexible accommodation throughout.
Location Dow Close is set within the Three Score area of Bowthorpe, on the western edge of Norwich, an established residential part of the city known for its quieter streets and good access to everyday amenities.

With green spaces, pedestrian routes and cycle paths close by, the location offers a balanced lifestyle that combines residential calm with practical links to work, education and leisure across the city.
Dow Close Positioned on a generous plot in the established Three Score neighbourhood of Norwich, this six-bedroom detached residence offers a well-considered investment opportunity with long-term income already in place.
Originally built as a four-bedroom family home, the property has been carefully reconfigured to create six well-proportioned rentable bedrooms, making full use of the internal space while retaining a comfortable, liveable layout.
The result is a home that works efficiently as a shared residence without feeling over-adapted.
A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, feeling bright and airy on arrival and providing access to the main living areas.
The communal living room enjoys a relaxed atmosphere, with French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor space that works well for both everyday use and socialising.
The kitchen/diner is practical and well laid out, fitted with a range of cabinetry, an integrated oven and space for tenants’ own appliances, with room for dining.
On the ground floor there is a WC, alongside a private en-suite and a separate family bathroom, helping to support the demands of a multi-occupancy layout.
Across both floors are six bedrooms, each offering good flexibility.
While currently arranged for rental use, the rooms could equally function as reception space, a home office or playroom should the configuration ever change.
Externally, the property benefits from a large, private rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn and offering a pleasant outlook.
To the front, a brick-weave driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a garage that offers useful storage.
Well located for access to the University of East Anglia, Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital and the wider city, this is a solid, income-producing investment in a popular and well-connected part of Norwich.
