Set on a generous plot in sought-after Filby, this detached three-double-bedroom bungalow combines distinctive character with clear scope to add value. The principal suite includes a walk-in wardrobe, dressing area and ensuite, while the lounge’s circular glazed seating area provides a bright, uplifting focal point. A large garage with adjoining store, in-and-out driveway and wholly private rear garden make this home immediately practical for family life.
The house is well built and spacious throughout, with two fireplaces, a practical kitchen flowing into a glazed porch lobby, and a separate ground-floor bathroom. Substantial loft volume offers strong potential for conversion (subject to planning) to create extra bedrooms or a top-floor suite. Interiors are presented in neutral tones, providing a straightforward canvas for modernisation and personalisation.
Notable running and technical points are factual and important: the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler (not on a community supply), the EPC is E, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. Any loft conversion or extension would require planning permission. These factors should be weighed alongside the home’s size, setting and redevelopment potential.
Located in a village famed for its floral displays and close to the Norfolk Broads, the home sits within a low-crime, countryside community with good primary and secondary school options nearby. For buyers seeking space, privacy and a strong platform for improvement, this bungalow is a rare opportunity in Filby.
