The Tour:
Set within a generous, secluded plot of approximately 0.26 acres in the heart of Caister-On-Sea, this substantial detached family home exemplifies the harmony of modern comfort with thoughtful design. Built around 1990, the residence offers approximately 3,633 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation, featuring spacious, light-filled interiors balanced by exceptional outdoor spaces, carefully conceived for contemporary living.

The interiors are thoughtfully arranged across two spacious levels, comprising six bedrooms following a thoughtful conversion by the current owners that created two additional bedrooms above the garage. Expansive uPVC double-glazed windows throughout welcome abundant natural light. The ground floor is centred around an expansive kitchen and dining space, ideal for both family gatherings and refined entertaining, with sleek cabinetry and a generous central island. The adjoining living spaces offer versatile layouts, flowing seamlessly between formal reception rooms and relaxed family areas.

Upstairs, the six well-proportioned bedrooms are restful retreats, the principal suite notably spacious, offering built-in wardrobes and serene garden views.

Notable eco-conscious features include a 24-panel solar array complemented by a 7.2 kWh battery storage system, dramatically reducing running costs, and an integrated electric vehicle charging point further underscores the home's modern credentials.

The gardens, oriented to capture southern sunlight throughout the day, offer exceptional privacy, enhanced by established planting and secluded seating areas. A dedicated garden studio, currently utilised as a home gym, provides considerable flexibility, readily adaptable as a home office or leisure space.

This home combines thoughtful design, practical technology, and exceptional privacy, all within walking distance of village amenities and the celebrated Norfolk coastline.
