Blake Drive

Proudly positioned in the charming Norfolk village of Bradwell, this detached five-bedroom residence blends modern comfort with a relaxed, family-friendly lifestyle. Designed to grow with you, it previously had planning permission for a rear extension that could transform the heart of the home into a sweeping open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space—ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying everyday life if you wish to re-apply.

A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a convenient WC and a double-aspect sitting room. Here, internal double doors open into a light-filled conservatory where you can unwind while taking in the garden views. The modern kitchen is well-equipped with quality cabinetry, granite worktops, an integrated double oven, a large fridge-freezer, and a breakfast unit for casual dining. A separate utility room keeps the practicalities neatly tucked away. The formal dining room invites cosy family dinners or lively gatherings, while a versatile office provides the perfect work-from-home environment, or could easily serve as a sixth bedroom.

Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms accommodate family and guests with ease, offering the utmost comfort and privacy. The principal suite feels like a private retreat, complete with built-in wardrobes, a discreet en-suite and a Juliet balcony that welcomes fresh air and natural light. A contemporary family bathroom with a stylish four-piece suite completes the upper floor.

Outside, the lifestyle possibilities continue. The expansive south-facing garden offers a decked terrace for al-fresco dining, a well-kept lawn for play and relaxation, and tall mature trees that create a sense of privacy. A timber storage shed adds practicality, while the brick-weave driveway provides off-road parking for four vehicles. The garage provides excellent flexibility, ideal as a home gym, workshop, or an office, and benefits from previous planning permission for an extension from the utility room to include a gym.

This is more than a house; it’s a spacious, adaptable home where you can shape each space to reflect your own style and rhythm of living, all in a peaceful village setting just a short drive from the coast and local amenities.
