This established three-bedroom detached house sits on a generous mature plot of circa 764 sqm (0.18 acres), offering scope for gardens, extension subject to planning, or outdoor play space for a growing family. The property is convenient for local shops, schools and close to the UEA and Norfolk & Norwich Hospital, making daily routes straightforward.
Internally the layout is flexible: two ground-floor reception rooms currently used as additional bedrooms, a long kitchen with utility space, and a conservatory. The home has double glazing (fitted post-2002) and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators, providing practical comfort now while you plan improvements.
Buyers should note the house dates from the early 20th century and is of solid brick construction with no built-in cavity insulation assumed — there is realistic potential for thermal upgrades. The area is described as very deprived locally with average crime levels; renovation and modernisation will be required to bring the interior fully up to contemporary standards.
The property is offered freehold and chain free, with driveway parking and a two-storey garage. For families seeking a detached house with substantial outside space and flexible accommodation in a convenient west-city location, this presents a straightforward purchase with clear improvement potential.
