Set on roughly a third of an acre, this five-bedroom detached house blends generous family living with genuine versatility. The well-kept interiors include three reception rooms, a sociable kitchen/dining area and a conservatory overlooking a mature, landscaped garden with a koi pond and waterfall. A separate study/snug with kitchenette, shower room and private rear access has previously been used as annexe accommodation and offers practical multigenerational or rental potential.
Practical comforts include double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas boiler and radiators, and a modern boiler fitted in 2021 for added reliability. The long private driveway framed by white pillars provides ample off-street parking, while established borders, fruit patches and vegetable beds enhance the outdoor lifestyle. The property’s characterful features — an original Belfast sink, patterned flooring and a classic fireplace — sit alongside contemporary fittings in the stylish family bathroom.
Buyers should note a few material facts: the EPC rating is D and council tax is above average, which may affect running costs. The annexe-style accommodation has been used successfully in the past but any formal change of use or separate occupancy arrangements should be verified. Hellesdon High School in the area is rated as requiring improvement; there are, however, several highly regarded primary schools nearby.
This home will suit a growing family seeking space and flexibility, or purchasers wanting scope for annex-style living without immediate major works. It’s well maintained throughout and ready for occupation, while the plot and room sizes offer opportunity to personalise or upgrade over time.
