The Location

Positioned in Old Lakenham, Sandy Lane benefits from a location that mixes residential calm with genuinely practical access to amenities. For everyday essentials, the Harford Bridge / Hall Road retail area is close by and provides a wide range of useful amenities.

There’s a large Tesco superstore within easy reach, along with an Asda a short drive away, meaning residents have multiple supermarket options without needing to head into the city centre. The recently opened ikea at Hall Road Retail Park adds a significant convenience for furniture, homeware and general household shopping, alongside a number of other major retailers in the same area.

Leisure and entertainment are also well covered. The Riverside complex is not far away, offering dining, shops, a cinema, gyms and general entertainment options. Norwich Train Station sits on the edge of that same district, giving straightforward rail access for commuting or travelling further afield. The city centre itself is only a short drive from Sandy Lane, so reaching the Lanes, the market, restaurants, bars, cultural venues and historic streets is quick and easy.

Travel connections are another positive: The nearby A47 gives a simple route across Norfolk and links onto wider trunk roads, while being on the south side of Norwich makes getting in and out of the city less stressful than from some of the busier northern districts.

Overall, Sandy Lane sits in an area that combines community feel with a surprising amount of convenience, practical retail options, strong travel links, close access to the city, and plenty of leisure opportunities, all without sacrificing the quieter, residential atmosphere Old Lakenham is known for.

This well-kept three-bedroom semi-detached home sits on an impressive corner plot to the south of Norwich, offering both plenty of outdoor space and strong potential for future extension (subject to planning permission).

The position of the plot gives the property a sense of openness, and the generous frontage provides excellent kerb appeal.

Inside, the ground floor opens with a welcoming entrance hall that leads through to a bright and spacious sitting/dining room.

The first-floor shower room has been updated in a contemporary style and is complemented by a separate WC off the landing, adding convenience for a busy household.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. The driveway provides generous off-road parking for several vehicles-an increasingly rare advantage. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a patio area perfect for outdoor dining or enjoying the sunshine.

A large, power-connected garden house offers excellent bonus space, whether for hobbies, a home office, or simply storage. There is also an additional outbuilding providing a useful utility area and an extra WC.
