Upstairs, a light-filled landing gives way to two generous double bedrooms, both with south-facing windows that overlook the expansive and private garden, while the main bedroom benefits from built-in storage. A well-maintained bathroom features both a bathtub and a newly installed shower & enclosure. Outside, the property boasts a large gravel driveway 700sq ft (65m2) behind attractive wrought iron gates, offering ample parking and access to the garage. A newly paved path leads to both front and side entrances. To the rear a secure courtyard area has an external tap and double power sockets, perfect for garden use. The garden is a true highlight: Beautifully mature, exceptionally private, and ideal for outdoor living, complete with sunny spots and a terraced seating area. With double glazing and gas central heating throughout, this wonderful home combines timeless period features with modern convenience in a tranquil yet well-connected location.
Location
Lime Tree Avenue, situated just off Harvey Lane, Yarmouth Road in Thorpe St. Andrew, offers a prime location combining the tranquillity of suburban living with the convenience of easy access to local amenities and transport links. The property is in quiet secure surroundings, yet benefits from a variety of nearby pubs, restaurants and takeaways. It is close to supermarkets, and local shops including an award-winning butcher.
For families, the location is particularly advantageous due to its proximity to well-regarded schools, offering quality education options for children of all ages. A branch library is situated beside the St Williams Way primary school alongside the local health centre which is easily accessible, with doctors’ surgery and pharmacy.
A short walk down the public footpath to School Lane takes you directly to the River Green, Parish Church, and the open spaces of Thorpe Marshes nature reserve.
Norwich main railway station is just 1.7 miles away, while the Coach Station at Queens Road is 2.7 miles. Green Line and Red Line buses run regularly west to the rail station, city centre and Wymondham, or east to the Dussindale Centre, and Acle. For those who commute by car, Lime Tree Avenue’s location offers easy access to main distributor roads, including the A47, facilitating smooth travel both within Norwich and to further destinations.
