A charming two-bedroom Georgian cottage offered chain-free, combining period character with practical modern updates. The house has generous internal space (around 1,294 sq ft) arranged over multiple floors, a 20ft lounge/diner with a wood burner and a modern kitchen/breakfast room that suit relaxed daily living and entertaining. Two double bedrooms sit off the landing and a first-floor balcony enjoys picturesque field views — a quietly private spot for morning coffee or evening light.
Outside, a fully enclosed walled garden and gated driveway lead to a 16ft garage. The garage provides secure parking and carries genuine potential for conversion into extra living accommodation, subject to planning consent — an attractive option for buyers wanting to add value or adapt the layout. The property sits close to Catton Park and is well placed for Norwich amenities, good local schools and fast broadband.
There are important practical points to note. The property is an older solid-brick build (pre-1900) with assumed lack of cavity wall insulation and an EPC rating of D; upgrading insulation could improve comfort and running costs. The roof and some external features show weathering and the house will suit buyers willing to carry out periodic maintenance or modest renovation to maximise its potential.
Overall this cottage will appeal to downsizers or buyers seeking character within easy reach of Norwich who value a character home with adaptable space and scope to enhance energy efficiency or extend (subject to approvals). Being sold freehold and chain-free makes it straightforward to move into or invest in as a project.
