It's perfect for elegant gatherings or simply relaxing with your family after a busy day in the city. The sociable kitchen/dining room continues the impressive decor with fine cabinetry, integrated appliances, and solid timber worktops. The breakfast bar is great for informal dining or entertaining friends while you prepare meals. Double doors lead from the dining area to the raised outside dining terrace, which overlooks the beautiful rear garden.

The first floor offers great flexibility with three large double bedrooms, each of which could also serve as an additional reception room if needed.

It has an en-suite shower room, while a Jack and Jill bathroom serves as either an en-suite for the second bedroom or a family bathroom for the two guest bedrooms.

The property features an outstanding plot and outdoor facilities. Electric gates and a driveway provides private off road parking to the rear, along with an en-bloc garage. The well-kept rear garden includes two levels of paved terraces, ideal for enjoying the sunshine, along with a manicured lawn bordered by mature shrubs and various brick and timber outbuildings/stores. 

NORWICH This ancient city has been home to writers, radicals and fiercely independent spirits for over a thousand years, and today continues in its legacy as an enclave of culture and creativity. Its perfectly preserved medieval streets are home to a thriving community of small businesses, a vibrant food scene and an established arts culture. It is also a gateway to a county that continues to inspire people with its unspoilt landscapes, open spaces and big skies.

Named as one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich lies approximately 20 miles from the coast at the confluence of the River Yare and the River Wensum, the latter still bending its way through the heart of the city. In the 11th Century, Norwich was the second largest city in the country, and today is still the UK's most complete medieval city. Strolling through the historic cobbled streets of Elm Hill, whatever the season, the Tudor architecture retains its character and beauty. Laced with merchant's houses, thatching, individual homes, speciality shops and small cafes, you'll be led toward the 1,000-year-old Norwich Cathedral.
To the west of the city the University of East Anglia is a remarkable example of brutalist architecture, and the campus is also home to the Sainsbury centre, a permanent collection of modern and ethnographic art, gifted by the Sainsbury family.

Property types in Norwich are incredibly diverse, from city-centre Victorian properties, converted mills and barns, townhouses and luxury new-builds. Central to the city, Newmarket Road is noted for its selection of grand houses, and the 'Golden Triangle' neighbourhood is a favourite with families. There is also an array of beautiful rural villages within a short drive, notably Stoke Holy Cross to the south, Surlingham to the east, or Bawburgh to the west, where larger rural properties and small estates are often brought to market.

When the bright lights call, trains to Liverpool Street take just 90 minutes, and the city's airport flies to a number of UK destinations, as well as direct to Amsterdam.

This is a city that reveals itself the longer you stay - a city to fall in love with - a city to be a part of.
