Newmarket Road, Cringleford, Norwich, Norfolk, NR4

From the moment you set eyes on this truly enchanting Grade II listed four-bedroom cottage, it’s clear this is something rather special. Brimming with character, beautifully balanced with modern touches and set within grounds of approximately half an acre, this is a home that effortlessly delivers both charm and lifestyle in equal measure.

Quietly tucked away just off the ever-sought-after Newmarket Road in Cringleford, the setting offers a rare blend of privacy and convenience. A generous driveway welcomes you on arrival, providing ample off-road parking and leading to a detached double garage, complete with an electric vehicle charging point, perfectly suited to modern living.

A shingled pathway guides you to the entrance, where stepping inside immediately reveals the warmth and personality this home has to offer. The study, the first of three reception spaces, is rich in character with exposed brickwork and a feature fireplace, currently arranged as a home office but offering excellent versatility depending on your needs. A ground floor W/C and useful storage are also found here.

The sitting room is a truly impressive space, measuring close to 20ft and showcasing original beams alongside a striking fireplace, creating a cosy yet expansive environment for family life. Flowing through, the dining room mirrors this charm, with both rooms combining to create a wonderfully sociable layout, ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying everyday living.

The kitchen provides a stylish contrast, having been recently upgraded to a high specification. Thoughtfully designed with both practicality and aesthetics in mind, it offers ample storage and workspace, forming the heart of the home. A separate utility room further enhances the functionality of the ground floor.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged across a clever and flexible layout. The principal bedroom is a standout, with exposed beams adding to its character, alongside built-in wardrobes and a dedicated dressing area. A second bedroom, positioned on a separate landing with access to a recently renovated shower room, offers an ideal setup for multi-generational living or older family members seeking their own space. The remaining bedrooms are equally well presented and generous in size, all served by a pristine family bathroom.

Externally, the grounds are simply exceptional. Occupying a highly private plot of approximately half an acre, the gardens are predominantly positioned to the front of the home and offer a peaceful, almost countryside feel. A large pond, often visited by local wildlife, sits within the greenery, while expansive lawned areas make the most of the sunny aspect perfect for families, entertaining or simply unwinding.

Opportunities to acquire a home of this nature, combining period charm, substantial grounds and such a convenient location, are incredibly rare. With Norwich city centre just minutes away, along with excellent access to the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospital, UEA and the A11, this is a property that truly offers the best of both worlds.
