House For Sale £375,000
An Elegant Edwardian Home with many original features preserved and highlighted that has been modernised and improved, in one of the most convenient locations in the city of Norwich. Positioned just a stones throw from riverside, this must be one of the closest locations to the train station while being located within a leafy green, genteel area. There is a thriving local community here. In fact at the top of the road is a pretty garden, Old Library Wood, run by the community for the community. Within walking distance are local schools, Mousehold Heath, Riverside Walks and of course, Norwich train station with it's commuter trains into london Liverpool Street within 2 hours. It is also just a stroll from Norwich's vibrant and cultural city centre.
The property is of generous proportions and makes a wonderful family home. There are fireplaces, a woodburning stove, stripped and exposed floors, many original and ornate ceiling roses, coving, picture rails and cornices.
The garden faces south and has been landscaped into a lush and mature haven with an emphasis on encouraging wildlife. There is a wildlife pond and strategic wildflower planting. A substantial area of paved sun terrace allows for al-fresco entertaining and BBQ's. 'Toward the bottom of the garden is the boat and bike store. Being almost on the River, the family canoe is stored here along with it's accessories. It is also organised as a log store and handy shed. There are timber slats making it the ideal area to hook up a hammock for those lazy warm days.
Inside, the sitting room there are high ceilings, a cosy woodburner and a large bay window to the front. The dining room leads out to the sun terrace and garden. There is a study area with built in desk and storage which leads on into the kitchen. The kitchen is large, light and airy, largely owing to the extra large picture window installed, overlooking the garden. Off here is the utility room. Formerly a shower room, all the plumbing is in place to re-instate it as such if desired. The family updated the area to be a downstairs cloakroom and utility room which has proved to be very useful. There was a new gas combi boiler installed in 2018.
Upstairs, two amazing new features of this property are the bathroom and bedroom three.
The bathroom has been enlarged and is now a new, four piece family bathroom. Incredibly stylish, it benefits from a free standing, contemporary bath, spacious quadrant shower, elegant high level W.C., and a classic wash hand basin.
Bedroom three has been turned into a haven with a mezzanine level installed to provide space for a double bed. This leaves the lower level as space for wardrobes, toys etc. While the sleeping level enjoys blue skies provided by the large sky light window, views across Norwich and an opportunity to gaze at shining stars by night.
Bedroom two is very generous in size while the master bedroom approaches 5 metres in length, enjoys an original fireplace and dual sash windows.
The loft space benefits from extra insulation and is part boarded for storage with the convenience of both power and light being provided.
