About
NO ONWARD CHAIN This expansive five-bedroom, three-storey townhouse sits in a prime riverside location at Dyers Yard, with stunning views over the River Wensum and the historic Anchor Brewery.
Offering over 1700 square feet of versatile accommodation, the property boasts an integral garage, a private courtyard garden, and a superb first-floor balcony.
While well cared for, the home could now benefit from cosmetic improvement and updating, presenting a rare opportunity to personalise a substantial riverside residence right in the heart of Norwich.

This bright, neutrally decorated room features elegant wooden flooring, a decorative feature fireplace, and double doors that open out onto a fantastic metal-railed balcony overlooking the water.
This level also houses two well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath and classic blue-and-white tiling.

The main bedroom measures 14'8" x 13'0" and benefits from large mirrored built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. All bedrooms are comfortably carpeted and finished in a neutral palette.

Externally, the property features a private, low-maintenance courtyard garden at the rear, laid entirely to block paving and enclosed by brick walling and mature trellising.
