Description

This charming three-bedroom semi-detached home is situated on a generous corner plot in the desirable south Norwich area of Old Lakenham, providing both ample outdoor space and exciting potential for future development (subject to planning permission). The property boasts a welcoming entrance hall that leads to a spacious sitting/dining room, bathed in natural light thanks to large windows that enhance the inviting atmosphere. The modern kitchen/breakfast room is equipped with practical storage solutions and sufficient worktop space, making it ideal for family breakfasts or casual gatherings. Upstairs, you will find three well-proportioned bedrooms, each versatile enough to accommodate children, guests, or even a home office setup. An updated shower room along with an additional WC off the landing adds functionality for daily living. The exterior of this property showcases significant advantages: a wide driveway allows for off-road parking of multiple vehicles, which can be a rare find in residential areas. The main rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and features a patio area perfect for alfresco dining or soaking up the sun. Additionally, the large garden house offers flexible space that could serve as a hobby room or an office, while an extra utility outbuilding provides further convenience. The spacious side garden presents an opportunity for expansion should you wish to explore building options in the future. With double glazing throughout and gas central heating already installed, this property combines current comfort with future investment potential in an area known for its community feel and convenient access to local amenities and transport links.
