This three-storey detached house on Poethlyn Drive offers roomy, versatile living across 1,730 sq ft, designed for growing families and home working. Built in 2010 and well maintained, the layout includes five bedrooms, a study, two reception rooms and a large kitchen/breakfast area — useful for daily family life and entertaining.
Upstairs bedrooms are split over two floors, with three shower rooms and a family bathroom to reduce morning bottlenecks. The principal suite includes a dressing area and ensuite; two further bedrooms have ensuite access on the first floor and two dormer bedrooms plus a shower room occupy the second floor, giving options for guest, hobby or multigenerational use.
Outside, a landscaped rear garden with generous patio sits behind a driveway and integral garage, providing practical parking and outdoor space for children to play or for summer entertaining. The home sits at the far end of a popular development close to country walks, good schools, bus links into Norwich and easy road access to the A47, UEA and the hospital.
Considerations: the plot is modest for a detached house, and annual running costs reflect an above-average council tax band. Broadband and mobile signal are average — adequate for everyday use but possibly limiting for heavy remote-working households. Overall, the house combines modern construction and family-friendly layout with sensible spaces for daily life and future adaptation.
