Large garden and garage with approved extension potential.
Over 2,500 sq ft of adaptable family accommodation
Set on roughly half an acre in one of Cringleford’s most desirable streets, this substantial detached home provides over 2,500 sq ft of flexible family living. Ground-floor living includes a large lounge with inset wood burner, separate dining room, modern kitchen with breakfast bar, twin conservatories and a utility. Four double bedrooms upstairs include a master with direct bathroom access. Outside, wraparound gardens, a raised terrace, double garage and generous driveway offer abundant outdoor space and parking.
The house offers clear scope to personalise and extend. South Norfolk Council planning is already approved for a ground- and first-floor extension plus an undercover pool room (Ref: 2022/1886), giving a straightforward route to add space and an indoor pool. Solar panels and some air-conditioning are fitted, improving energy credentials in parts of the property.
Buyers should note the property needs renovation and some systems have not been tested. The in-ground pool has been covered and unused for several years; its condition is unknown. There is a subdivided, height-restricted basement storage area with external access. Broadband speeds are reported slow and council tax is relatively high.
For families seeking space, privacy and future growth, this house combines a generous plot, top local schools and excellent transport links to Norwich, the UEA and the N&N Hospital. With renovation and the available planning permission, the home could be transformed into a distinctive, high-spec family residence.
