The impression as you enter is one of light and space, these are well-proportioned rooms with high ceilings, yet they still retain so much of their original character.<br/>Symbolic of the Edwardian era, this property is elegant and offers well-proportioned rooms with good ceiling heights. Decorative detailing internally includes archways, stained glass windows, period fireplaces, architraves, high skirtings and picture rails.<br/><br/>The present owners have occupied the property since 2004. During their tenure they have added a wonderfully large kitchen/breakfast room and separate family room extension that has transformed the ground floor living space. At the same time a first-floor decked balcony was added, which adjoins the main bedroom. On the first floor there was re-configuration of the main bathroom to create a shower room and an en suite bathroom to the main bedroom. The works took place during 2006/7 and included re-wiring, re-plastering, and a replacement boiler.<br/><br/>The front door opens into a beautiful entrance hall offering an abundance of period features, including 2 archways, stained glass and a lovely open fireplace set within a hardwood surround. To the left of the entrance hall and overlooking the front of the property is the sitting room with square bay window which is a beautiful feature and enhances the aesthetics of the room. The room comprises period features, two original built-in cupboards and a period fireplace (not currently in use). <br/><br/>The hallway extends through to the rooms to the rear of the property. There is an office to the left with an outlook to the rear of the property and built-in storage houses the gas boiler and the Megaflo water cylinder. To the right is a side lobby and boot room with a door opening out to the side of the property. There is a bespoke made hideaway home office/workstation that could easily be converted into a pantry with the addition of an airbrick. Sitting adjacent to the kitchen/breakfast room is the utility, offering a range of built-in cabinets, sink, water softener and space and plumbing for laundry appliances. There is a wet room on the ground floor featuring a walk-in shower, bidet, WC, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and illuminated mirror.<br/><br/>The kitchen/breakfast room offers a light and airy living space, with Velux windows and three sets of bi-fold doors, two of which open out to the decked seating area within the rear garden and a third set of internal bi-folds opening through to the adjoining family room to create a seamless transition between the two living spaces. The substantial kitchen benefits from underfloor heating and was designed and hand built by Bryan Turner Kitchens. This is a nationally renowned company, offering exceptional craftsmanship to create bespoke kitchen furniture to an exacting standard. The kitchen includes oak lined cabinetry with granite work surfaces and a range of integrated appliances including dishwasher, double oven, built-in combination microwave, gas hob, and full height refrigerator. The original cellar is no longer used but a trapdoor has been fitted to provide access. The adjoining family room features exposed beams and enjoys a dual aspect.<br/><br/>From the entrance hall the staircase rises to a half-landing with stained glass window. From the first-floor landing there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom overlooks the rear garden and features an original period fireplace (not working) and a lovely west facing balcony with in-laid glass balustrades. There is an adjoining en suite shower room with roll top bath, twin wash hand basin oak unit, bidet, WC and heated towel rail. Bedroom 2 overlooks the front of the property and features wood flooring, built-in wardrobes and 2 additional storage cupboards. A sliding door opens into an en suite shower room which was newly installed in 2017 and comprises a walk-in shower, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail. Bedroom 3 with original period fireplace completes the accommodation on the first floor. The second floor offers 3 further bedrooms, ample eaves storage and a bathroom comprising a bath, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.<br/>__________<br/><br/>OUTSIDE<br/><br/>The property is in a tree conservation area and all work on trees of a certain size need to be approved by the tree conservation officer at Norwich City Council. None of the trees on the property are subject to a TPO.<br/><br/>The property is set back from the road with gravelled driveway providing ample off-road parking for several vehicles. To the front of the property there is a private fenced garden enclosing an Elizabethan Knot garden, designed with geometric interweaving beds edged with clipped, low box hedging. Mature hedging and trees provide privacy and a visual barrier at eye level.<br/><br/>The rear garden is west facing and has been beautifully designed with hard and soft landscaping. A magnificent beech tree is the main focal point in the garden which the present owners have professionally pruned as required. Privacy fencing creates a secluded and physical division between a decked and paved seating area with vegetable/fruit plot behind. <br/>__________<br/><br/>SITUATION<br/><br/>The property stands in a highly sought-after residential area of Norwich and is close to Norwich High School for girls and Town Close Prep School.
