23 High Street, Norwich, NR12 7AA

Beyond an unassuming façade on the timeless High Street of Coltishall, a most remarkable home awaits.

Immaculate interiors, a wealth of character, a magical plot of 0.7 acres (sts) and a substantial garage/workshop are all hidden in plain sight in what must be amongst the most unique homes to be found anywhere in this thriving village.

Having been lovingly restored by the current owners, the warm embrace of this home is immediately felt upon walking through the front door, with the sitting room being the first reception room to greet you - warm tones, original floorboards and a striking double sided wood burner make for an elegant and homely space.

To the rear of the home, the kitchen/dining room injects a more modern and sociable way of living without for a moment compromising on the character.

A wealth of fine cabinetry provides ample storage and workspace for the keenest of cooks, whilst space for both a free standing breakfast bar/island as well as a large dining table make this a fantastic room for all occasions.

The splendid view from the kitchen window provides a glimpse of the elegance found in the garden, whilst the garden room to the rear fully invites it in via a run of bifold doors, taking what is a delightful snug and turning it into a magical room that sprawls out to the raised decking.

The ground floor is completed by a brilliantly flexible wing including a bathroom, library/study and a well equipped utility - this space could easily serve as a downstairs bedroom with bathroom should the need arise.

The first floor is home to the three charming bedrooms, including the spacious principal bedroom enjoying far reaching views over the rear gardens.

A further double bedroom is complemented by a third bedroom currently used as a dressing room. All bedrooms are well served by the luxuriously appointed family shower room to the first floor.

Undoubtedly one of the ace cards of this home is the remarkable plot in which it sits.

Extending all the way from the thriving High Street down to the River Bure at the bottom of the grounds, this is amongst the finest of any plots to be found in the village offering a wealth of features and lovingly tended gardens to discover.

The immediate gardens to the house are impeccably landscaped; the raised sun deck faces south-west and boasts space for a dining set and well as a further seating area.

Thriving flower beds and pristine box hedging grace this area whilst handsome mature trees set a timeless backdrop.

Heading down to the next section of ground, raised beds and well kept lawns reveal the large driveway behind electric gates, leading to the superb purpose built studio/workshop/garage - an exceptional storage space and suitable for any number of requirements, stretching to 1300 sq, ft.

As the grounds meander to the bottom of the garden, a pleasant meadow area can be found with patches of wildflower and long grass dissected by mown paths leading through this wildlife haven through a rear gate and on to the banks of the famous River Bure.
