Setting the scene

The property is located on a private road just before reaching the stunning hitting Broads, but the property emerges to your right hand side with a shingle driveway suited for the parking of multiple vehicles. Further parking could potentially be added in the lawn space to the front of the home in time if required.
The grand tour

Once inside the quality of the full refurbishment becomes apparent with a central hallway complete with fully plastered walls and ceilings, newly fitted lighting and electrics and high end lvt flooring. To your left the first of the three double bedrooms emerges with freshly laid carpeted flooring and new central heating radiators all fed from a modern air source heat pump system. Sitting directly opposite this to the right hand side of the hallway is the principal bedroom, another double bedroom tastefully decorated with all new carpeted flooring with the added benefit of a ensuite shower room finished to a high standard with floating vanity storage and wall mounted heated towel rail. To the rear of the property the third bedroom can be found again tastefully decorated with attractive decorative wall panelling and neutral décor. A three piece bathroom suite is accessible to all with further floating vanity storage, a tall wall mounted heated towel rail with rainfall shower head and glass screen mounted over the bath.

Towards the end of the hallway the kitchen emerges showing a stunning blend of contemporary finish and modern fittings with a central island perfect for those sociable gatherings featuring usb charging points. Integrated appliances throughout the kitchen include and eye level oven and microwave, hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer all being high quality Bosch appliances set amongst an array of wall and base mounted cabinetry. A substantial change to the home comes towards the very rear courtesy of a considerable extension to create a 23’ open plan living and dining room where lvt wooden effect flooring adorns the floor and leaves more than enough room for a formal dining table in front of a set of bi-folding doors which open freely onto the rear garden patio. Carpeted flooring takes over in the form of a cosy sitting room space complete with multiple zone lighting, bespoke media wall with storage and low level fire with drink reception area built in within the walls as well.
