Cross Road, Gorleston

Step into the entrance hall of this characterful Edwardian bungalow and you’re immediately welcomed by the sense of scale and potential this home offers. Moving through to the lounge, you’ll find a generous, light-filled space enhanced by a wide bay window that draws in natural light throughout the day. A central fireplace provides a natural focal point, while the soft carpet underfoot adds comfort. With its size and layout, this room also offers excellent potential to be used as a third bedroom, making it a highly flexible living area.

From here, continue into the spacious dining room, a second well-proportioned reception space that also features its own fireplace and built-in storage. The carpeted floor and abundance of natural light make it ideal for hosting dinners, relaxing with family, or setting up a work-from-home space.

The kitchen/breakfast room sits toward the rear of the property and offers a practical layout with fitted base and wall units, partially tiled walls, and room for a breakfast table. A walk-in pantry provides additional storage, and the space holds clear scope for modernisation and personalisation to suit your tastes. A connecting door leads into a utility area with plumbing and further potential, which then opens directly into the garage, a rare and valuable layout that adds both convenience and usability.

The accommodation continues with two generous double bedrooms. Each room enjoys good levels of natural light, carpeted flooring, and the space to adapt to different needs. One bedroom is particularly versatile, featuring a built-in wardrobe and plenty of room for freestanding furniture or workspace.

Serving the bedrooms is a family bathroom with tiled walls and a bath with shower over, offering a functional and usable space as-is, with clear scope for updating. A separate WC adds further practicality.

Below the main living areas, a cellar provides extensive additional storage or even the potential for a hobby space, studio, or workshop.

Upstairs, the expansive 23-foot attic is a standout feature, offering generous eaves storage and plenty of room for future conversion, subject to the necessary checks.

The home benefits from double glazing throughout, with some windows recently updated for improved efficiency and comfort.

Outside, the garden wraps around the bungalow and includes a laid-to-slab area, with the driveway forming part of the garden space and leading to a detached garage that provides secure off-road parking and additional functionality.
