Birkbeck Close, Stoke Holy Cross, Norwich, Norfolk, NR14

Nestled on the edge of this small, palatial cul-de-sac within the highly regarded village of Upper Stoke Holy Cross, this well-appointed 1960s-built detached bungalow presents a rare opportunity.

Offered with no onward chain and immaculately presented throughout, the alluring property occupies an impressive and beautifully landscaped corner plot, where mature hedging provides a delightful open frontage and complete seclusion to the rear. A cascade of red roses frames the private garden, creating a romantic, botanical backdrop to everyday life. Externally, the property is perfectly complemented by a garage and a wide private driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, ideal for guests, family cars, or even a motorhome. The wrap around garden also boasts raised sleeper beds, vibrant planting, and a majestic silver birch.

Step inside via the practical storm porch and you are greeted by a bright and generously proportioned L-shaped entrance hallway, complete with built-in storage. The showpiece of the home is undoubtedly the expansive triple-aspect reception room, a wonderful space flooded with natural light and offering serene garden views at every turn. The fitted kitchen, newly installed contemporary bathroom, and refurbished utility/conservatory space all blend practicality with potential, while three well-proportioned bedrooms complete the accommodation. Properties of this calibre rarely come to market in this area, especially those that sit so comfortably on a prime corner plot.

Whether you are searching for a forever family home or looking to downsize without compromise, the potential to remodel, extend, or simply enjoy as it stands makes Birbeck Close a truly special proposition. Privacy, generous outside space, exceptional parking — it’s all here. Quite simply, a wonderful place to be.
