This former Show House offers 5 bedrooms across two upper floors along with a lovely ground floor including a Conservatory. Beautifully presented and owned since new, this stand out corner plot enjoys a gated frontage along with its neighbour.

3 Century Road along with its immediate neighbour were both Show Homes for the site with this explaining the smart gated and railed corner position. No.3 stands particularly well with a certain grandeur not least due to the Georgian inspired front elevation. The current owners, having had the property since new have created and maintained a first class home, beautifully maintained and enhanced by way of updated bathrooms, refitted kitchen and the addition of a lovely Conservatory at the rear. The layout of the interior is cleverly designed with the ground floor incorporating two reception rooms, lovely sized 'square' kitchen along with utility and cloakroom all off a welcoming entrance hall. Upstairs a versatile and useable landing area serves three bedrooms along with bathroom and includes a further staircase to the 2nd Floor. At the very top of the house can be found two further rooms with shower room and built-in storage within the eaves. Currently the top floor provides a Study space along with Guest Quarters. Outside, a double garage is nicely tucked towards the rear of the plot and includes side by side parking in front of twin up and over doors. The rear garden is notable for its privacy and lack of apparent neighbouring windows. A smart length of brick walling extends along one side.

Location

The historic town of Eye is blessed with an array of shops and businesses enabling residents to be essentially self sufficient With Nursery, Primary and High Schools, a Health Centre and varied social and recreational opportunities, all age groups are catered for within this Georgian market town. Century Road is a favoured location with the development constructed by Wimpey Homes at the turn of the Century. The house is set back off the road within a gated setting with smart railings and wrought iron gates. Both these houses were originally the site Show Homes. Open fields with a network of footpaths are close by creating a circular walk around the town. The Town Centre is also within walking distance either via the roadside footpath or more directly through the neighbouring housing area, leading into Wellington Road and Church Street - ideal for those heading for the Primary School. The excellent shops are also easily on hand including for example the friendly 'institution' that is The Handyman Stores. The town is also fortunate in having a butchers, bakers, fine deli, two supermarkets and chemist. Eye supports an array of Clubs and Societies appealing to a wide age group making the town the envy of many neighbouring areas. Diss (approximately 5 miles) offers additional features including an 18 Hole Golf Course and importantly a well used commuter rail service which runs between the Cathedral City of Norwich to the north and London's Liverpool Street Station.

Direction

Century Road is easily found off the town through road - Victoria Hill. No.3 is the second house on the left on the corner of Tuffs Road.
