Set on a very large 0.35-acre plot just off Colney Lane, this detached three‑bedroom bungalow offers clear development potential (STPP) for investors or buyers seeking a substantial refurbishment project. The generous rear garden, multiple sheds and workshops and an in‑out driveway give practical scope for extending or reconfiguring the house to add value.
The property retains mid‑20th century character and benefits from double glazing installed post‑2002, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and solid brick construction. Its location is a strong selling point: quiet residential setting within easy reach of the University of East Anglia, Norfolk & Norwich Hospital and a selection of well‑regarded schools, making the plot attractive for family accommodation, professional lets or redevelopment.
Important practical points: the bungalow requires modernisation throughout — cosmetic and likely deeper works are needed (kitchen, bathroom, living areas, and evidence of ceiling damage). Walls are assumed to be solid brick with no insulation, broadband speeds are slow, and council tax is described as expensive. The property will be sold at auction with no onward chain; buyers should allow for auction fees and verify planning or structural matters prior to bidding.
For an investor or experienced developer this is a project with location and land size that can deliver upside once permissions and a refurbishment strategy are in place. For an end‑user seeking a ready‑to‑move property, the extent of works needed and additional costs should be carefully considered.
