A delightful hodgepodge of 18th-century character and contemporary style, this Grade II-listed townhouse is an absolute gem. Built in the 1750s, the red-brick home has kept much of its Georgian charm with huge sash windows and high ceilings, while bright pops of colour, a sleek kitchen and glittering gold accents move the interiors firmly into the modern age. You'll feel right at home here, whether you're watching Netflix on the sumptuous sofa or reading a book in the window seat. The open-plan layout is great for socialising, super stylish, and only adds to the sense of space – and the swanky kitchen is an absolute dream to cook in. During the summer months, soak up the sunshine on the small south-facing patio, where you can plop down on the wicker chairs with a cup of tea or an evening glass of wine. Location-wise, you're in an excellent position to explore Norwich's cobbled lanes. Renowned pubs, delicious restaurants, cosy cafes and local shops are just a short walk away. For a day trip, head to the seaside – you can catch a train from Norwich Station (fifteen minutes on foot) to Great Yarmouth or Lowestoft and be at the beach in under... an hour.
