The Street, Poringland, Norwich, Norfolk, NR14

Completely transformed by the current owner, this substantial detached home offers approximately 2300 sq ft of beautifully finished accommodation in the heart of Poringland. Its combination of stylish modern interiors, a central non estate position, a generous garden that is not overlooked and extensive driveway parking makes it a particularly rare find, with village amenities and schools all within walking distance.

The home has been thoughtfully redesigned to offer impressive living spaces alongside considerable flexibility. A striking contemporary kitchen, exceptionally spacious sitting room and luxurious principal suite are complemented by two additional ground floor rooms, allowing the accommodation to adapt easily to family life, working from home and individual interests.

Brick pillars frame the entrance to the expansive driveway, where there is ample parking for several vehicles. Stepping inside, the generous entrance hall immediately establishes the sense of space found throughout the home.

The sitting room is outstanding in its proportions, with a dual aspect outlook over the front and rear gardens. There is ample room for substantial furniture without compromising the feeling of openness, while bi-fold doors lead directly onto the rear patio. A separate room off the sitting room is currently arranged as a study, providing an equally appealing option for a snug, playroom or games room.

The kitchen is a defining feature of the home, bringing together sleek cabinetry, extensive storage and a substantial central island. The layout offers generous preparation space while creating a sociable setting for everyday use. A range of ovens, integrated appliances and a tall American-style fridge freezer complement the design, while the exposed structural beam adds a distinctive architectural detail to the contemporary interior. An adjacent utility room provides a dedicated space for the washing machine and tumble dryer, keeping these practical requirements away from the main kitchen. A further room accessed from the kitchen is currently used as a home gym, adding another adaptable space to suit a buyer’s needs.

Completing the ground floor is a high quality shower room, finished with Italian flooring and a carefully selected contemporary shower.

Upstairs, the accommodation is currently arranged as four double bedrooms, with the fifth bedroom forming a walk in dressing room to the principal suite. This arrangement creates a particularly impressive private retreat, combining dedicated dressing space with an expansive bedroom and a luxurious five-piece en-suite bathroom.

The remaining three double bedrooms each benefit from built in wardrobes and are served by a modern family bathroom. For buyers seeking five independently accessed bedrooms, there is scope to reconfigure part of the wardrobe and airing-cupboard space to create access from the landing, subject to the necessary works.

The rear garden is a further highlight, offering a generous, well maintained lawn and an extensive patio with plenty of space for outdoor dining, seating and entertaining. The garden is not overlooked, providing a welcome sense of privacy that is especially unusual in such a central village setting. A hot tub occupies part of the terrace and may be available by separate negotiation.

With its comprehensive transformation, substantial accommodation and unusually private grounds, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy a spacious, individual home with the everyday convenience of village life on the doorstep.
