Description

Gate House presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest or develop in the desirable village of Hockering, located around 11 miles from Norwich. This substantial semi-detached property is nestled within a quiet cul-de-sac, offering a tranquil setting while still being conveniently close to local amenities and transport links, including access to the A47. The residence is currently in need of extensive renovation, allowing buyers to create a tailored living space from scratch. With five spacious bedrooms, it offers fantastic potential for families or could be transformed into a multi-generational home. Additionally, this layout provides an appealing prospect for rental investments once refurbishment is complete. A detached garage measuring approximately 6 metres by 6 metres adds utility to the property, suitable for parking, storage, or even as a workshop. The extensive parcel of land accompanying Gate House further enhances its appeal and development potential, subject to securing appropriate planning permissions (STPP). This aspect is particularly attractive for developers considering extending the current structure or exploring new builds. The serene private road setting positions this property in an enviable location within the village community while remaining close to market towns and Norwich city centre. Hockering itself boasts essential amenities such as a village shop, pub, primary school, and various community services that contribute to its reputation as a well-regarded residential area. This property requires significant modernization throughout; however, its pricing reflects this opportunity for investors and home builders alike to add substantial value. Such spacious properties with ample land are becoming increasingly rare in sought-after locations like Hockering. We recommend viewing early to truly appreciate the scope for transformation and future possibilities that Gate House has to offer.
