A home that makes everyday family life feel that little bit easier.

Set within the popular Romans Edge development in Godmanchester, this attractive three-bedroom detached home offers over 1,080 sq ft of thoughtfully arranged accommodation, combining generous room proportions, contemporary interiors and a practical layout designed for modern living.

From its spacious dual-aspect living room and separate dining room to the impressive principal bedroom with en-suite, every part of the home has been designed with everyday practicality in mind. Add a west-facing garden, covered parking and the character of historic Godmanchester nearby, and the result is a home with plenty to recommend it.

Built in 2018, the property has been well maintained and tastefully presented throughout, offering a comfortable home that is ready to be enjoyed from day one.

The ground floor is particularly well arranged, with the principal reception rooms positioned on opposite sides of the entrance hallway, creating a natural separation between spaces for relaxing, dining and entertaining. The living room is a lovely example of this. Measuring approximately 18'2" x 10'10", the room enjoys natural light from two aspects, with a generous front-facing window and French doors opening directly onto the rear garden.

Its proportions comfortably accommodate substantial seating, while the neutral decoration and attractive furnishings create a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether enjoying a quiet evening or entertaining friends and family, it is a room that feels equally suited to both.

Across the hallway, the separate dining room offers another particularly useful space. A feature bay window brings additional natural light into the room, creating an attractive setting for a dining table and chairs. It is easy to imagine family meals, celebrations and evenings spent around the table here. Equally, for those who work from home or have younger children, the room offers flexibility to become a dedicated home office, playroom or additional sitting room.

The kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the property and is fitted with a contemporary range of white cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and integrated cooking appliances. Thoughtfully arranged storage and generous preparation surfaces make it a practical space for everyday use, while windows provide natural light and a pleasant outlook. A door opens directly onto the rear garden, making it particularly convenient for outdoor dining and entertaining during the warmer months. The ground floor is completed by a welcoming entrance hallway, useful storage and a separate WC.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress. The principal bedroom is a particularly generous space, measuring approximately 16'8" x 13'2" at its maximum dimensions. There is ample room for a substantial bed and additional bedroom furniture, while the proportions create a comfortable retreat away from the main living accommodation. An adjoining en-suite shower room adds another level of convenience, particularly for busy households.

Bedroom two is another excellent double, measuring approximately 12'10" x 10'11", while the third bedroom provides flexibility for a child's bedroom, nursery, guest accommodation or home office. A contemporary family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms, with a bath, wash basin and WC. The generous first-floor landing adds to the feeling of space and provides a practical connection between the bedrooms.

Outside, the property offers an enclosed west-facing rear garden. Predominantly laid to lawn, with paved seating areas and established boundaries, it provides a pleasant and manageable outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining or enjoying time with family. Its westerly orientation is particularly appealing for those who enjoy spending time outside during the afternoon and evening.

French doors from the living room create an easy connection between the house and garden, while a separate kitchen door provides additional access. A timber garden shed offers useful storage for gardening equipment, bicycles and outdoor furniture. To the side of the property, a private covered carport provides off-road parking for two vehicles.

The property's position within Romans Edge is another important part of its appeal. This established modern development has become a popular choice for buyers looking for contemporary homes within convenient reach of Huntingdon, Cambridge and the surrounding countryside.

Everyday amenities, including a Co-op convenience store and local primary school, are close by, while the historic centre of Godmanchester offers an attractive selection of independent businesses, traditional public houses and riverside walks. The town's setting alongside the River Great Ouse, together with its historic buildings and surrounding green spaces, gives Godmanchester a character that distinguishes it from many modern residential locations.

For commuters, Huntingdon Railway Station provides direct services towards London, while the A14 and A1 offer excellent road connections across the region.

The combination of modern accommodation and established surroundings makes this a particularly appealing choice for professional couples, young families and those looking to move into a well-connected community. There is also the reassurance of a modern home with an EPC rating of B, an increasingly relevant consideration for buyers thinking about long-term running costs.

Ultimately, 3 Norris Drive offers a particularly attractive balance. Generous bedrooms, two separate reception rooms, a contemporary kitchen, a west-facing garden and covered parking, all within one of the area's most desirable and well-connected locations.

A home with room to grow, space to unwind and the everyday convenience that makes life just that little bit easier.
