Description
abbotFox Land & New Homes presents an increasingly rare opportunity to create a home entirely your own. This self build plot occupies a desirable position within Costessey. Offered with the potential to construct an elegant three bedroom detached bungalow, this is a chance to realise a carefully considered home designed around modern living, practicality and comfort.
The proposed accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise both space and natural light. At the heart of the home, an impressive kitchen family room provides a sociable setting for everyday life, effortlessly accommodating cooking, dining and informal gatherings. Complementing this space, a separate sitting room offers a more intimate area, ideal for relaxing with family or entertaining guests.
The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury of its own en suite shower room, whilst two further double bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom. A separate WC adds further convenience for visiting guests and busy households alike.
Beyond the approved accommodation, the property also offers exciting future potential. Subject to the necessary consents and permitted development rights in force at the time, there may be scope to extend the bungalow further, allowing future owners the flexibility to adapt and enhance the home as their lifestyle and requirements evolve.
Whether you are downsizing without compromise, seeking the ease of single storey living, or looking to create a bespoke home tailored to your exact requirements, this plot presents an exceptional lifestyle opportunity in one of Norwich's most sought after residential locations.
Agents' note: This is one of three new build plots and relates to the plot in the far left corner as you approach the site from the roadside.
Families - Costessey continues to prove popular with families thanks to its excellent selection of local schooling and amenities. Primary education is served by Costessey Primary School, Queen's Hill Primary School and St Augustine's Catholic Primary School, whilst older children benefit from access to Ormiston Victory Academy, which provides education through to sixth form level.
The area offers a strong sense of community, with nearby recreational facilities, open green spaces and access to the Marriott's Way walking and cycling routes, creating an appealing balance between convenience and outdoor living.
Location - Positioned to the west of Norwich, Costessey has evolved into one of the city's most convenient and well connected locations. Residents enjoy immediate access to Longwater Retail Park, supermarkets, healthcare facilities, cafés and leisure opportunities, whilst the nearby Park and Ride service provides a straightforward route into the city centre, the University of East Anglia and the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
Norwich city centre lies approximately five miles away, placing an outstanding range of shopping, dining, cultural attractions and transport links within easy reach. Excellent road connections via the A47 provide convenient access across Norfolk and beyond, making Costessey equally attractive to commuters and those seeking a well served place to call home.
Our Agent's View - "Self build opportunities of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly in locations that offer such a strong combination of accessibility and established amenities. The appeal here lies not only in creating a brand new home, but in shaping every detail to suit your own lifestyle. The added prospect of future extension potential provides reassurance that this home can evolve with its owners over time, making it a truly exciting proposition in one of Norwich's most sought after settings."
