SUMMARY
This thoughtfully improved detached home offers a warm welcome from the outset. From the entrance hall, a cosy yet spacious lounge with French doors opening onto the rear patio creates an inviting space to relax or entertain, seamlessly connecting through to the dining room enjoying a feature fireplace. The modern kitchen offers ample worktop space, integrated appliances, pantry and a utility room providing practical access to the garden.
Upstairs, the landing leads to the 3 bedrooms, including a stunning main bedroom with a feature bay window. A family bathroom includes a contemporary suite with a separate shower enclosure, tiled walls and underfloor heating. Every aspect of this home has been finished to a high standard, with tasteful updates that balance comfort and functionality.
OUTSIDE
Occupying a corner plot of approx. 0.21 acres (STMS), this home enjoys a unique setting, set back from the road in New Costessey with excellent road links and surrounding amenities. To the front, mature trees and shaped borders create a natural screen from the road. A smartly finished driveway leads through twin gates, opening to extensive off-road parking for multiple vehicles, while a garage sits to one side, complete with barn-style doors, light and power. A beautifully maintained lawn stretches across the front garden, framed by neat planting, offering a striking first impression.
The rear garden is a highlight - fully enclosed and professionally landscaped, it offers a spacious lawn, established planting and a generous patio ideal for outdoor dining. To one side sits a modern summer house with power, currently styled as an idyllic garden retreat with an adjacent covered seating area. A second outbuilding, alongside the property, provides additional versatility, whether for storage, hobbies or workspace (STPP). Every element of the outdoor space has been carefully considered to create a private, practical and attractive setting for family life and entertaining alike.
