3 Bedroom Detached House

Tucked behind a deceptively versatile frontage, this three-bedroom home reveals a layout designed for flexibility and everyday practicality. Two adaptable reception rooms on the ground floor allow the space to evolve easily. A well-positioned kitchen flows naturally to a separate utility room, keeping daily routines organised and the main living areas clutter-free. An original fireplace provides a character feature within the dining room. To the rear, a detached garden room / sun room extends the living space and connects the home to the garden. The convenience of a ground-floor bathroom further enhances the functionality of the layout. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms all benefit from excellent fitted storage, maximising space and comfort. Bedrooms two and three also benefit from working wash basins with storage beneath. Additional practicality comes from a fully boarded loft and a west-facing rear garden with open views over an allotment, with the garden enjoying sunlight throughout the day, offering both storage and a pleasing sense of outlook. Off-road parking to the front completes a home that balances adaptable interiors, generous storage and attractive outdoor features.

In addition, Norwich International Airport, only 2 miles away, serves as a gateway to numerous UK destinations, including Amsterdam, Malta, Portugal and the Canaries.
