3 Bed Semi-Detached House For Sale Francis Road, Norwich, NR15

Located within a crescent around a greenspace and set back from the road, this considerably improved family home has so much to offer.

As you approach you will be impressed by the amount of parking available on the property frontage, which is fully enclosed and gated for your peace of mind.

A porch has been added, creating a useful space to leave your coats and shoes. Upon entering you will find the stairs to the first floor straight ahead of you, and to your left a comfortable living room. To the right is a spacious, well-fitted kitchen including a peninsula island, perfect for eating meals on the go, but there is room for a small dining table if preferred. The electric hob is integrated, as are two double ovens, and you have the space for a washing machine, dishwasher, and American-style fridge/freezer. The rear lobby accesses the understairs storage cupboard, and leads to the fabulous wet room and also the conservatory - a great space in its own right, with both double opening, and bi-fold doors to the rear garden.

Upstairs, the main bedroom has the benefit of an en-suite bathroom, although this could be reconfigured to become accessed from the landing. The second double bedroom benefits from not one, but two built-in cupboards, one of which is currently used as an ingenious laundry/drying room, something you may not have realised you needed...until now! The third bedroom is a small double/generous single.

The south-facing rear garden is simply a delight! Thoughtfully landscaped to provide several seating areas, along with decorative borders around a generous central lawn.
A pergola extends from the conservatory across the rear of the house creating the perfect space for outdoor dining, with a shingled seating area to the eastern boundary the ideal spot to enjoy the evening sun. There is also a raised deck to the front of the summer house, and lighting around the garden adds to the ambience.
The oil storage tank is secreted behind a trellis, and there is also a large timber garden shed.

Both the living room and the main bedroom currently benefit from the addition of air-conditioning (Installed 2022), a surprisingly cost-effective way of providing heating in the cold months and much-appreciated relief in the summer.
A new oil-fired combination boiler was installed in 2022
All of the windows were replaced in 2019 along with the addition of the porch, There are fitted window blinds in the principal rooms and the conservatory.
Also in 2019, the electrics were fully upgraded and a new consumer unit fitted.
The summerhouse is insulated, equipped with power and lighting, and currently benefits from internet connection, and would make an ideal home office or space for a home-based business.

We invite offers within the Guide of £315,000 to £330,000 and the air-conditioning, fitted blinds, and summerhouse could be included within the sale if reflected within the offer made.
