Set on a large plot in Costessey, this extended two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-storey living with practical outdoor space. The property includes a long driveway, single garage and a sizable rear lawn — appealing for those wanting low-step access and room for gardening or mobility aids. It is offered with no onward chain and sold freehold, easing a quicker move for downsizers.
Internally the layout is traditional: entrance porch, hallway, lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The bungalow benefits from double glazing and gas central heating, but many internal finishes are dated. The bathroom and kitchen show signs of age and will suit a buyer planning modernization rather than immediate cosmetic perfection.
The large plot provides scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to planning and consents), presenting potential to add value. Note practical considerations: the property’s cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy-efficiency upgrades could be needed. Local area is very affluent overall but recorded crime is above average — worth checking specifics for peace of mind.
This home will suit a downsizer or anyone seeking a single-storey property with parking, garage and a generous garden who is prepared to carry out updating. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support home working; nearby schools, shops and transport links make the location convenient.
