Summary - Bately Avenue, Gorleston NR31 6HJ
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Five-bedroom detached on a large plot close to the beach and local schools.
Large double corner plot with extensive front driveway and double garage
This commanding five-bedroom detached house sits on a large double corner plot in sought-after Gorleston, a short walk from the seafront and award-winning beach. The house has been extensively upgraded and is unusually spacious throughout, with generous reception rooms, a large utility and versatile outbuildings that support family life and hobby gardening. South-facing gardens and a front driveway with space for six cars plus a double garage add practicality for busy households.
Internally the home feels modern and comfortable following a complete re-wire in 2019 and the addition of high-spec cavity wall insulation with a 25-year warranty. Key living spaces include a 25ft living room, a 17ft contemporary kitchen opening to a bright dining area, a 21ft utility room, garden room with wood burner, plus a snug and office — providing multiple adaptable spaces for family, home working and guests. The galleried landing leads to a main bedroom with en-suite and a front-facing balcony with sea glimpses.
Outside offers productive space with vegetable beds, potting sheds and a brick outbuilding (storage, wood store and outside WC). The enclosed south garden and adjoining west lawn create child-friendly lawned areas and patio space for entertaining. The property’s footprint and outbuildings also give clear potential to create an annexe subject to consents, an appealing option for multi-generational living or rental income.
Practicalities to note: the glazing was fitted before 2002 and could be reviewed for efficiency improvements. Council tax is described as expensive. Overall, this large, newly renovated family home in a low-crime area close to schools, transport links and the seafront will suit families seeking space, seaside access and flexibility for future adaptation. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale and grounds.
