St. Andrews Avenue, Norwich

SUMMARY

Some homes impress through scale; others through design. This one achieves both. Creatively extended and renovated, this distinctive residence has evolved into an exceptional family home where the character of its original architecture sits comfortably alongside Art Nouveau-inspired detailing.

At the heart of the home is a spectacular kitchen/diner, designed for family life and entertaining. The handmade kitchen combines granite worktops, a central island and extensive integrated appliances with beautiful cabinetry and generous glazing connecting with the gardens. 2 reception rooms add versatility, including a characterful bay-fronted sitting room with feature fireplace, while the lounge enjoys garden access and further feature fireplace. A substantial utility room, separate WC, and additional storage complete the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, 4 bedrooms provide excellent flexibility. The main bedroom boasts its broad bay window, beautiful parquet-style flooring, dedicated dressing area and private en-suite, while 3 further bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

The refurbishment has been approached with exceptional attention to detail, with parquet and Amtico flooring, decorative glazing and timber detailing giving the interior a genuine sense of identity. Modern additions include 11 solar panels, a 5kW battery system and EV charging point, enhancing its energy-conscious credentials. The result is a distinctive family home for buyers who appreciate architecture without compromising on practicality.

OUTSIDE

The setting plays an equally important part in the appeal, the house is approached via an extensive driveway, providing off-road parking and creating an impressive sense of arrival. A fountain forms an attractive focal point, complemented by a characterful boundary wall. The garage provides useful parking, while an adjoining storage room significantly increases the practical space available. An EV charging point further complements the home's modern credentials.

To the rear, the garden provides an attractive extension of the living accommodation, featuring a substantial terrace creating space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond the terrace is a generous lawn framed by mature hedging and established planting, creating an appealing sense of greenery and privacy.

For families moving within the area, professionals wanting quick access to Norwich or buyers in search of more space without sacrificing connectivity, this is a compelling proposition. Above all, this home will appeal to someone looking beyond the ordinary: a buyer who values craftsmanship, and a home with a genuine sense of identity.
