5 bed detached house for sale

Branksome Road, Norwich, Norfolk NR4

Extended, detached five bedroom home in prime residential location

Description
22 Branksome Road is a fine detached period home, situated on one of the city’s most sought-after roads. Offering well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors, the property comprises five bedrooms and three reception rooms, complemented by a generous south-facing garden. The house has undergone a thoughtful programme of modernisation in recent years, including an extension, and has been carefully improved during the vendors’ tenure to create a superb and versatile family home.

The accommodation is entered via an inviting entrance hall, which leads to a number of the principal reception rooms, including a well-proportioned sitting room featuring an attractive fireplace. A formal drawing room provides ample space for both dining and seating, also benefitting from a fireplace and double doors opening onto the garden, creating an excellent space for entertaining.

The kitchen/breakfast room combines traditional cabinetry with a sleek, contemporary finish, offering both style and practicality. Integrated appliances are complemented by space for a breakfast table. The property has been extended to incorporate a useful utility room and cloakroom, as well as a striking, modern family room. This impressive space contrasts beautifully with the original period features, offering a vaulted ceiling and double doors opening directly onto the garden.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, including the principal bedroom, which benefits from an en suite bath room. The remaining bedrooms on this floor are served by a well-appointed family shower room. A separate study provides an ideal working from home space, though it could equally serve as an additional bedroom or perhaps be adapted to create a further en suite if desired.

The second floor offers two further bedrooms and a bath room. The current owners utilise this level as a principal suite, with one bedroom arranged as a dressing room, demonstrating the flexibility of the accommodation.

Outside
The property is approached via gates, opening onto a driveway providing parking for several vehicles. The plot extends to approximately a quarter of an acre, offering a mature and private setting, with generous areas of lawn ideal for family use, alongside a substantial terrace perfectly suited to outdoor entertaining.

Thoughtfully planted shrubs and trees enhance privacy and create a natural division between formal and informal garden areas.

To the rear of the garden, a useful wooden studio provides an excellent space for hobbies, a home gym, or additional working from home accommodation.
