This beautiful home has been sympathetically updated and renovated to an exceptional standard, with great care and empathy to reflect the building’s heritage and origins. Plenty of character remains within, while the layout has been altered for modern-day living.

As you walk down the pathway from the gate, you pass a well-landscaped front garden. The impressive entrance hall features a striking front door with stained glass above, paying homage to its period. A fine, tessellated tiled floor and an elegant staircase rise to the first floor. To the front is a superb drawing room with a central fireplace, cornicing, picture rail, dado rail, and an ornate ceiling rose, along with two recessed arched displays on either side of the chimney.

The heart of this home is the modern, well-fitted kitchen breakfast room. There is plenty of storage and workspace, stripped wooden floors, an island, and ample space for a dining table, creating a sociable and cosy atmosphere, especially in the winter months by the wood-burning stove. Just off the kitchen is a newly fitted utility room with bespoke cupboards and access to the newly landscaped terraced garden. Additionally, there is a boot room and cloakroom. Downstairs, a winding brick staircase leads to the fully renovated basement, featuring a fabulous space with a brick-tiled floor and an original cook’s range, ideal for a TV/cinema room, gym, office, or further reception room.

The elegant staircase leads to the spacious landing on the first floor, perfect for a study area. There is a good-sized bedroom to the front, a modern, well-fitted sumptuous family bath and shower room, as well as a well-appointed guest bedroom to the rear with a dressing area and a modern, well-fitted en-suite shower room.

On the top floor, there are two additional bedrooms.

Outside, at the front, there is a well-landscaped garden with a sweeping lawn, established shrub borders, and mature beech boundary hedging.

To the rear, the garden has been landscaped to create an incredible entertaining terraced garden, with access to the double garage offering car storage and access off Ice House Lane.

Norwich
Norwich, an ancient city steeped in a millennium of history, has long been a haven for writers, radicals, and independent thinkers, fostering a rich culture and creative spirit. Its meticulously preserved medieval streets host a thriving community of small businesses, a dynamic culinary scene, and a vibrant arts culture. As a gateway to a county renowned for its pristine landscapes, expansive skies, and untouched vistas, Norwich continues to inspire.

Named one of the best places to live in 2021, Norwich sits approximately 20 miles from the coast where the River Yare and the River Wensum converge, the latter meandering through its heart. Once the second largest city in England during the 11th century, Norwich proudly retains its title as the UK’s most complete medieval city. Historic paths like Elm Hill beckon with Tudor architecture and quaint cafés leading to the majestic Norwich Cathedral, a testament to its thousand-year legacy.

West of the city, the University of East Anglia stands as a striking example of brutalist architecture, housing the Sainsbury Centre for modern and ethnographic art. Norwich’s property landscape offers diversity, from Victorian city-centre dwellings and converted mills to town houses and contemporary luxury homes. The “Golden Triangle” is cherished among families, while nearby rural villages like Stoke Holy Cross, Surlingham, and Bawburgh offer larger estates and idyllic countryside living.

With direct trains to London’s Liverpool Street in just 90 minutes and an airport connecting to UK cities and Amsterdam, Norwich blends historical charm with modern connectivity—a city that captivates and welcomes all who embrace its allure.
