Timberhill, Norwich
Step through the front door into a welcoming entrance hall, where a doorway leads directly into the open-plan living space. This generous area feels bright and uplifting, with wide wood-effect flooring running underfoot and large secondary-glazed windows drawing in plenty of natural light. Crisp white walls, recessed spotlights, and original exposed timber beams create a stylish setting that balances modern comfort with character.
The kitchen is set neatly to one side, designed with shaker-style cabinetry in soft neutral tones and polished stone worktops that extend into a breakfast bar, ideal for casual dining. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with stainless steel extractor, fitted oven, dishwasher, washing machine, and fridge, all arranged to offer both practicality and a seamless finish. A generous storage cupboard houses the boiler, while dual aspect windows above the sink ensure the workspace is filled with daylight.
From the living area, a staircase with a white balustrade and wooden handrail is set to one side. A landing window frames a lovely outlook across the treetops and towards a historic stone church, adding to the charm of the setting. The bedroom is located downstairs and continues the calm neutral theme, finished with soft carpet, a traditional-style radiator, and exposed ceiling beams overhead. A large window fitted with blinds allows light to pour in, while an adjoining dressing room provides a walk-in wardrobe space, complete with shelving and hanging rails for excellent storage.
The shower room has a fresh, contemporary design, featuring a rainfall shower within a glass enclosure, a modern vanity unit with integrated basin, and a low-level WC. Dark-toned wall tiles add contrast to the lighter scheme, with a heated towel rail and natural light from the window enhancing both comfort and style.
Outside, residents benefit from a secure communal bike shed and the convenience of a shared entrance, all within this unique split-level apartment that combines modern finishes with original details in the heart of Norwich’s historic centre.
