We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Occupying a remarkable position on the edge of Thorpe End, this detached four-bedroom family home offers a lifestyle opportunity rarely found within such close proximity to Norwich's City Centre.
Set within a generous plot measuring approximately 0.4 acres (stms) and enjoying no immediate neighbouring properties, the property provides a level of privacy, space and seclusion that is increasingly difficult to find.
Approached via an extensive shingled driveway providing ample parking for numerous vehicles, the property immediately impresses with its commanding position and sizeable frontage.
The accommodation extends to over 2,100 sq. ft. and offers well-balanced, versatile living space ideally suited to modern family life.
The welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal reception rooms.
The sitting room is a particularly impressive space, centred around a feature fireplace and enjoying excellent natural light through multiple windows.
A separate study offers an ideal work-from-home environment and could equally serve as a playroom, snug or additional reception room depending on individual requirements.
The kitchen/dining room spans over 19ft in length and provides an excellent social space for both everyday living and entertaining.
Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room together with a ground floor shower room, creating a highly functional layout for family occupation.
To the first floor, four well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around a central landing.
The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, whilst the remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom complete with both bath and separate shower.
Externally, the property continues to impress.
The substantial rear garden enjoys a wonderful degree of privacy and a distinctly rural feel, with open views across neighbouring farmland creating an attractive backdrop.
Whilst the railway line runs alongside one boundary, the overall setting remains remarkably private with no immediate neighbouring properties overlooking the home.
The garden itself offers excellent space for families, entertaining and outdoor enjoyment, whilst also providing scope for further landscaping or enhancement to suit individual requirements.
Properties combining this level of privacy, plot size and accessibility are exceptionally uncommon.
Offered with no onward chain and presenting exciting scope for future improvement or extension, subject to the necessary consents, this is a unique opportunity to secure a substantial family home in one of Norwich's most desirable residential locations.
