Set on roughly a third of an acre, this five-bedroom detached home combines generous family living with proven annexe-style flexibility. Bright, well-proportioned reception rooms and a conservatory open onto a meticulously landscaped rear garden featuring a koi pond and waterfall — an established outdoor setting for entertaining and everyday family life.
Accommodation is practical and adaptable: a kitchen/breakfast room with original Belfast sink and patterned flooring leads to dining and utility areas, while a separate study/snug with kitchenette, shower room and private rear access has previously functioned as annexe accommodation. Four double bedrooms upstairs plus a dressing room offer space for families or home-working; an additional ground-floor bedroom option could be used for guests or multigenerational living.
The property has been well maintained — double glazing fitted post-2002 and a modern boiler installed in 2021 — and sits quietly off Drayton High Road with generous off-street parking and a hedged frontage for privacy. Local amenities, highly regarded infant and junior schools, and quick access to the NDR and Norwich city centre make this a convenient family base.
Notable practical points: the EPC is rated D and council tax is above average. While the annexe layout is already in use, any new owner should confirm planning or building-regulation requirements for formal separate occupation. Overall, the house offers substantial, well-cared-for accommodation and a rare large plot close to the city, ideal for families seeking space and versatility.
