Private, low-maintenance rear courtyard complemented by rare rear access and a brick-built garage
Prime Golden Triangle position with controlled parking, permit eligibility, and close proximity to amenities and the city centre
Set quietly within the coveted Golden Triangle, this substantial Victorian residence unfolds across three expansive floors, offering an unusually generous volume of accommodation rarely found in such a central setting. Behind its handsome double-fronted façade lies a home of real depth and complexity, where original architectural detailing sits comfortably alongside carefully considered modern additions. The internal footprint is impressive, with multiple reception spaces, a flowing kitchen and breakfast arrangement, and a layout that reveals itself gradually, room by room. Bedrooms are plentiful and well-scaled, extending across the upper floors. The principal suite alone reads more like a boutique hotel arrangement than a conventional bedroom, reflecting the overall attention to proportion throughout the house. Practical enhancements, including cellar storage, utility areas and garaging, are subtly integrated without detracting from the period integrity of the building. Altogether, this is a richly detailed and notably large home, positioned in one of Norwich’s most prestigious and enduring residential locations.

Combining an enviable address with exceptional connectivity and lifestyle appeal, this home offers a refined and vibrant living experience in one of Norwich’s most desirable locations.
Grosvenor Road, Norwich
This excellent Victorian family home, arranged over three beautifully presented floors, is positioned in the very heart of Norwich’s highly desirable Golden Triangle. Instantly impressive, the property benefits from a striking double-fronted bay window frontage and a beautifully tiled walkway leading to the entrance door, featuring a classic mix of terracotta and black tiles that perfectly sets the tone for the period elegance found throughout.
Upon entering, a generous and welcoming entrance hall showcases original character with checkerboard flooring, elegant coving and the original staircase rising to the upper floors. The ground floor provides an excellent balance of space, perfectly suited to both family life and entertaining. There is a large sitting room featuring a bay sash window and period fireplace, alongside a further reception room offering flexible use as a dining room or additional living space.
To the rear, the home opens into a superb breakfast room, centred around a stunning traditional blue Aga, which flows seamlessly into the main kitchen area. Here, neutral bespoke cabinetry, chrome fixtures, and integrated appliances combine to create a stylish yet timeless finish.
Complementing the kitchen is a well-appointed utility room offering additional storage and matching cabinetry, along with a ground-floor cloakroom. A dry cellar, accessed from the entrance hall, provides further practical storage.
The first floor hosts four well-proportioned double bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite. The master bedroom benefits from a walk-in dressing area, which then leads through to a spacious en-suite shower room with dual “his and hers” sinks.
A further family shower room is located off the landing, serving the remaining bedrooms on this floor.
The top floor offers two additional rooms, both currently arranged as double bedrooms. One is fitted as a kitchen/living space, making it ideal for use as a guest suite or potential work-from-home area. This floor is exceptionally versatile, with scope to adapt the accommodation to suit a variety of lifestyle needs, and is served by a family bathroom off the galleried landing.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The front garden, enclosed by railings, is attractively planted with shrubs and flowers. To the rear is a beautifully private courtyard garden, designed to be super low maintenance while offering a peaceful outdoor setting.
The courtyard also benefits from rear pedestrian and vehicular access, with a brick-built garage located to the rear of the property.
Additional features include gas-fired central heating, a wealth of original period features throughout, and location within a residents’ controlled parking zone. Residents are eligible to apply for two residents’ permits and a visitor parking scheme, which includes a four-hour permit with clock and sixty one-day permits, usable in any combination.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful Victorian home in one of Norwich’s most prestigious residential locations.
