About
DRAFT DETAILS AWAITING APPROVAL SUMMARY Offering a wealth of character and potential, the property presents a rare opportunity to create a truly exceptional family home.
The impressive 24' kitchen/diner offers extensive workspace and ample room for family dining and entertaining, while the spacious triple aspect lounge enjoys doors opening directly outside alongside a charming feature fireplace creating an inviting focal point.
A further reception room offers flexibility as a potential 4th bedroom, snug or home office, perfectly suited to modern family life.
Upstairs, 3 generous double bedrooms are arranged off the landing, with the main bedroom enjoying breathtaking elevated views stretching across Norwich’s skyline.
A shower room and separate WC complete the first floor accommodation.
While the property could benefit from some cosmetic enhancement, it offers an exciting blank canvas for buyers looking to sympathetically modernise a character home in a truly exceptional setting.
OUTSIDE One of the home’s most captivating features is its remarkable setting.
Set back amongst mature trees and established planting, the property enjoys a wonderfully private position that feels tucked away despite being moments from the city.
The home is approached via a shared driveway with 2 neighbouring properties, leading to the private sloping driveway providing off-road parking, alongside a useful carport and flint-built storage outbuilding.
The south-facing garden extends to the front of the property with steps down to a lawn, boarded by mature hedging, specimen trees and established shrubs - giving the gardens a timeless, enchanting feel, creating a haven for both keen gardeners and families alike.
