Summary - 129 NORWICH ROAD NORWICH NR5 0LE
1 bed 1 bath Land
Large freehold building plot in a desirable NR5 suburb, consented for a family home.
Full planning permission granted for four-bedroom detached home (ref 2025/0719)
This long, level plot on Norwich Road is being offered with full planning permission (ref 2025/0719) for a four-bedroom detached family home totalling over 2,000 sq ft. The site extends to just over a third of an acre, sits in a very affluent NR5 suburb and benefits from rear pedestrian access and good local services. Nearby primary and secondary schools include Good and Outstanding-rated options, making the location well suited to families.
The site is freehold and has no recorded flood risk; mobile signal and broadband are reported as excellent. Permissioned accommodation includes an open-plan living/kitchen/family area, utility, integral garage and first-floor bedrooms with en-suites and balconies overlooking the garden. The plot is long and level, which simplifies construction and landscaping compared with sloping sites.
Buyers should note the plot is currently a vacant, overgrown lot and represents a self-build or developer project — the house is not built. Building costs, construction timetables and utility connections are the purchaser's responsibility; prospective buyers should confirm services, boundary details and any pre-commencement conditions attached to the planning consent. The advertised price reflects the land and consent rather than a completed home.
For those seeking to deliver a large family house in a desirable suburban pocket of Norwich, this is a rare planning-ready opportunity. It will particularly suit an experienced self-builder or small developer able to manage construction, specification and compliance with the approved plans.
