Detached family chalet on circa 0.3 acre plot (stms)
Set behind a generous gravel drive and approached via raised sleeper beds, this detached chalet occupies approximately 0.3 acres and offers true family-sized accommodation across about 2,080 sq ft. The ground floor centres on an L-shaped sitting/dining room with a multi-fuel burner and a glazed garden room that opens to manicured rear gardens — ideal for indoor-outdoor family living. The principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor. A double garage with electric roller door and EV charge point adds practical convenience.
The layout is versatile and will suit families who need space for home working, play and storage; a dedicated study could double as a ground-floor bedroom if required. Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the property has double glazing and mains gas central heating, but some rooms and finishes would benefit from updating to contemporary tastes. There is scope to reconfigure internal spaces to increase living efficiency or value.
Practical points to note: the walls are cavity as-built with no added insulation assumed, broadband speeds are reported slow, and council tax is described as expensive. On the positive side, there is low local crime, no flood risk, mature planting for privacy, and easy access to highly regarded local primary and secondary schools and local amenities. Freehold tenure and a large plot make this a notable family opportunity in Costessey.
