The Green, Surlingham, Norwich, Norfolk, NR14

An exceptional single-storey home occupying private grounds believed to approach half an acre, with a delightful setting on Surlingham’s picturesque The Green. The approach to 33 The Green immediately sets it apart. A long, sweeping driveway leads through the established grounds towards the bungalow, with lawns and mature planting creating a sense of space and seclusion At the rear is generous parking, a detached double garage and a separate workshop.

Built for its present owners approximately 40 years ago, this is a home that has been enjoyed by the same family since its construction. It offers around 1850 sq ft of living accommodation, with four double bedrooms, substantial reception rooms and a layout that can adapt to the next owners’ plans.

The sitting room is a particularly inviting space, large enough to arrange distinct areas for relaxing and gathering together. Sliding doors open directly onto the paved terrace, drawing the garden into everyday life. Elsewhere, the formal dining room is an impressive room in its own right, with an abundance of natural light and space to accommodate a large dining table. Immediately alongside is the well-equipped kitchen, with generous work surfaces, ample storage and a breakfast bar for more informal meals. The position of the two rooms also offers an appealing opportunity to create a larger kitchen and dining space, subject to any necessary consents. A separate utility room keeps practical tasks away from the main living areas and leads through to a substantial walk-in airing cupboard. The snug adds another reception space, equally suited to quieter evenings, a playroom or a home office.

All four bedrooms are doubles. The principal bedroom benefits from its own four-piece en suite, while a separate shower room serves the remainder of the home. There is also a room intended as the family bathroom, with the preparatory work in place but fittings yet to be installed. This gives a buyer the freedom to complete it to their own specification or use the room differently if a further bathroom is not required.

The generous rear hallway adds to the flexibility of the layout. For buyers who may eventually want more accommodation, it could potentially provide a position for a staircase to a first-floor extension, subject to the necessary permissions and structural assessment.

Outside, the grounds are a defining part of the property. Broad stretches of lawn are framed by mature hedging and established planting, creating an exceptionally private garden with room to enjoy throughout the seasons. A paved terrace provides a natural place to sit or dine outdoors, while an established vegetable growing area with raised beds offers plenty of scope for a keen gardener. The detached double garage measures approximately 18'1 x 18'1 and is equipped with power and light. Alongside it, a separate workshop measuring approximately 17'5 x 9'0 provides valuable space for projects, hobbies or storage.

Homes offering this combination of substantial single-storey accommodation, extensive private grounds and an address on The Green seldom become available. After around four decades in the same ownership, 33 The Green offers its next owners the chance to shape a very special home for the years ahead.
