Guide Price: £260,000-£280,000. This deceptively versatile three-bedroom home offers a flexible layout designed for comfortable everyday living. Two adaptable reception rooms on the ground floor can be used interchangeably for relaxing or entertaining, both featuring fitted shelving and the option to reveal original Canadian wood floorboards beneath the current carpet tiles. The front reception room also includes a characterful fireplace with a brick surround and fitted mantlepiece. A functional kitchen with ample storage leads into a separate utility room, helping keep household tasks organised, though the kitchen presents an opportunity for modernisation. To the rear, a detached garden room provides additional outdoor living potential but requires significant repair. The west-facing garden enjoys plenty of sunlight and includes patio and lawn areas, along with outdoor furniture included in the sale. Completing the home are three well-proportioned bedrooms with fitted storage, a ground-floor bathroom, a fully boarded loft, and off-road parking for two vehicles.

The Location

Positioned within the village of Old Catton, offering an ideal merge of rural and modern convenience. Located just a short 45-minute walk or a 15-minute drive from the vibrant city of Norwich, residents of Church Street enjoy a peaceful, countryside lifestyle with the added benefit of easy access to the city’s rich array of amenities.

Old Catton benefits from a strong range of local amenities, including three well-regarded schools (one Infant School and two Junior Schools), a GP surgery, supermarket, café, and a variety of local shops and services.

The village is superbly connected, with excellent bus services linking to Norwich and nearby areas, ensuring commuting and access to local attractions. For those who prefer rail travel, the nearby train station offers direct connections to major cities, including London’s Liverpool Street, with an impressive journey time of just 90 minutes.

In addition, Norwich International Airport, only 2 miles away, serves as a gateway to numerous UK destinations, including Amsterdam, Malta, Portugal and the Canaries.

A significant highlight is the 70-acre Old Catton Park. This conservation area offers a picturesque landscape that evolves with the seasons, making it an ideal setting for leisurely dog walks or simply enjoying the outdoors. Each Saturday, the park hosts a Parkrun, adding to the sense of community and offering a fun way to stay active.

Further outdoor facilities are available at Old Catton Recreation Ground, which provides a bowling green, tennis courts, table tennis, children’s play areas, and free-to-use outdoor fitness equipment.

The village has a strong sense of community, supported by an active Parish Council that encourages high standards throughout Old Catton. The Friends of Old Catton play an important role in village life, organising regular events such as summer fairs, open-air theatre productions, and seasonal themed activities for all ages. There are also many local clubs and societies catering for a wide range of interests and age groups, along with a church that benefits from a particularly active and welcoming community.

Spixworth Road, Old Catton

Tucked behind a deceptively versatile frontage, this three-bedroom home reveals a layout designed for flexibility and everyday practicality.

Two adaptable reception rooms on the ground floor allow the space to evolve easily and can be interchanged as living and entertaining spaces, offering TV connections in both. The front reception room boasts an original fireplace with brick surround and fitted mantlepiece.

Whilst currently protected with carpet tiles, both reception rooms possess wide Canadian Wood floorboards which can easily be exposed. Bespoke wall shelving in both rooms will be included.

A well-positioned and fully functional kitchen, with extensive storage, flows naturally to a separate utility room, keeping daily routines organised and the main living areas clutter-free. Whilst in full working order, the kitchen would benefit from being upgraded; this has been reflected in the asking price. The utility room provides plumbing for washing machine.

To the rear, a detached garden room / sun room provides additional living outdoor space, but is in need of extensive repair, also reflected in the asking price.

A fully fenced west-facing garden is partly laid to grass and patio, with split levels at the rear. With potential for personal enhancement, the garden enjoys sunshine throughout the day and offers storage for garden items. A high quality set of garden table and chairs (wicker and tempered glass) is offered with the property together with garden bench and chairs.

The convenience of a ground-floor bathroom, featuring an updated bathroom suite with shower over bath and modern fittings, further enhances the functionality of the layout.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms all benefit from excellent fitted storage, maximising space and comfort. Bedrooms two and three also benefit from working wash basins with storage beneath.

Additional practicality comes from a fully boarded loft. Off-road parking for two vehicles to the front completes a home that balances adaptable interiors, generous storage and attractive outdoor features.
