Costessey

Vicarage Close is located in the residential area of Costessey, a suburban town immediately west of Norwich city centre, roughly 4–5 miles away. The street sits within easy reach of everyday amenities: local convenience stores and small shops are scattered throughout Costessey village, and larger supermarkets such as Tesco or Sainsbury’s are a short drive away. For dining and leisure, the village offers a handful of cafés and traditional pubs, while nearby retail parks provide additional options.

Families benefit from proximity to several schools. St Augustine’s Catholic Primary School and Costessey Primary School are both within a mile, while secondary education is served by Ormiston Victory Academy, located just over a mile from the street. Other schooling options in nearby Drayton and Taverham expand choices further.

Transport connections are practical: regular bus services run along the main roads linking Costessey to Norwich, making commuting or accessing city amenities straightforward. Road access is also convenient via the A47 and the Norwich Northern Distributor Road, and Norwich railway station is only a short drive away, providing links across Norfolk and beyond.

Vicarage Close

Set along a peaceful residential road in the ever-popular Norfolk town of Costessey, this distinguished detached residence occupies a substantial corner plot, offering both privacy and impressive proportions. Surrounded by mature greenery and generous gardens to the front and rear, this is a home that immediately conveys space, potential and lifestyle in equal measure.

Positioned proudly on its expansive plot, the property benefits from extensive frontage, a paved driveway providing ample off-road parking, and a double garage offering exceptional storage options. The garage itself presents exciting scope for conversion into additional accommodation, a home studio, or even a self-contained annex (subject to the necessary planning permissions), making this an ideal long-term investment for growing or multi-generational families.

Step inside to a welcoming and beautifully bright entrance hall, where natural light sets the tone for the rest of the home. Thoughtfully designed understairs storage keeps everyday living effortlessly organised.

The open-plan living and dining room forms the heart of the property, a light-filled, airy space enhanced by large windows and a decorative feature fireplace. This room flows seamlessly, creating an inviting environment for both relaxed family evenings and more formal entertaining. The proportions allow for versatile furniture arrangements, ensuring the space adapts to your lifestyle with ease.

The kitchen is fitted with an array of wall and base cabinetry, complemented by a range-style oven that anchors the room with character and practicality. Under-counter space accommodates essential appliances, while there is ample room for a breakfast table, perfect for casual family meals or morning coffee overlooking the garden.

Adding to the flexibility of the layout, the property benefits from both a first-floor family bathroom and a ground-floor wet room, comfortably serving both levels and enhancing day-to-day convenience.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable and adaptable accommodation. Built-in wardrobes and cupboards maximise storage while maintaining clean lines. Whether you require generous sleeping quarters, a dedicated home office, a nursery, or a dressing room, the layout offers the flexibility to tailor the space to your needs.

The wrap-around garden is a true highlight, private, well-maintained and wonderfully versatile. A raised patio provides the perfect setting for summer dining and evening entertaining, while the generous lawn offers plenty of space for children to play or for keen gardeners to create their own outdoor haven. A practical storage shed completes the outdoor space, ensuring functionality matches the home’s charm.

This is a home designed not only for living, but for growing, a place where children can play safely in the garden, where gatherings flow effortlessly from dining table to patio, and where future plans can unfold with exciting possibilities. Combining generous space, sought-after location and remarkable scope, it represents a rare opportunity within Costessey.

Full profileProperty listings
 Welcome to Minors & Brady, your local, independent estate agents. If you're thinking of buying, selling, or letting, then you've come to the right place. We were recently awarded first place in 'best estate agency office' in the whole of Norfolk and Suffolk and we came third in the whole of the U.K. at the ESTAS, the UK's largest estate agency awards hosted by Phil Spencer from 'Location Location'.    Our story is an interesting one. Jamie Minors and Alex Brady were passionate estate agents who had relentlessly worked their way up from Trainee Negotiators, to Senior Valuers, to Branch Managers for other firms; Pymm & Co and Haart respectively. Both Jamie and Alex had a long term plan to build their way of buying and selling via their own brand to ensure their same ethos was practiced daily. As competing rivals in the property industry, but friends outside of business, they coincidentally both realised they were due to set up their own firms in the same area.    After much discussion, they both realised they wanted the same thing; to deliver the best possible service to all buyers and sellers across Norfolk, with one 'super team' under one brand.    From there, as they say, the rest is history. Minors & Brady is now an award winning estate agent offering an unrivalled level of service in our area. Our key strength is that an owner of the business oversees all aspects of buying and selling, 7 days a week.
