A six-bedroom home has come up for sale for the first time in almost 30 years - and it's located in one of Norwich’s most desirable areas.
Number 127, Newmarket Road, is listed for sale for £1.3m and provides easy access to the city centre - in fact, selling agents Sowerbys say it’s been the “perfect choice” for its current owners, who bought it in 1995.
Since then, they’ve modified and extended the property to suit their changing needs – but still kept much of its character.
The renovations have included the creation of an open-plan living space, which opens into the kitchen. A spokesperson for Sowerbys says this has since become the owner’s “favourite space in the house”, with bi-fold doors opening into the garden.
Frameless internal doors also give the option of joining the sitting room to the open-plan space or to separate the two to create a quieter, more relaxing space.
A dining room at the front of the property provides a further reception room, and there is also a useful utility room. The ground floor is completed by a bedroom with en suite wet room.
Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom has its own bath and shower room and is well-fitted with a good range of wardrobes. French doors open out on to a roof terrace which overlooks the garden – a leafy, private spot for a morning coffee – and the second bedroom also has an en suite too.
The remaining three bedrooms share a family bathroom and separate cloakroom. There is also useful attic space, which could offer potential as a loft conversion, subject to planning.
Externally, the property enjoys a number of low maintenance spaces, including a lawn and shingled driveway at the front, which is set back from the road.
The rear garden is of a good size and has a lawn, terrace and selection of mature trees, providing the property with an unexpectedly leafy setting.
