About
Occupying a generous corner plot within the ever-popular Norwich suburb of Sprowston, this handsome 1930’s bay fronted semi-detached home is a perfect example of the character and proportions that make homes of this era so sought after.
From the moment you arrive, the property immediately captures your attention.
Two stunning cherry blossom trees frame the driveway beautifully, creating an eye-catching approach that truly sets this home apart.
Inside, a welcoming entrance hall leads into the bay fronted living room, a wonderfully cosy yet elegant reception space filled with natural light.
To the rear, the property has been extended to create a superb dining and family area, with ample room for entertaining, family living and even a dedicated play area.
The kitchen offers generous workspace and storage, while the ground floor also benefits from a shower room and a conservatory overlooking the garden.
Upstairs, the bay fronted principal bedroom enjoys fitted storage, while two further bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom. Outside, the property continues to impress.
The front driveway provides ample off-road parking and access to the garage.
The enclosed rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and also features a patio seating area, artificial lawn section and a charming summer house.
There is also an excellent amount of additional outdoor space behind the garage.
Thanks to the substantial corner plot, this property offers exciting potential for further extension to the side or rear, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Combining timeless 1930’s character, generous family accommodation and future potential, this is a home that will undoubtedly prove popular.
