Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We live in a spacious modern town house built over four floors. The house is in a courtyard within a conservation area off one of the oldest streets in the city. The neighbourhood is very quiet with little traffic, the street is access only. We have our own enclosed outdoor space for sitting and eating out. The ground floor has a sunny family room with a double sofa bed, an office, a cloakroom with toilet and a large utility with sink, washing machine, fridge and room for our two bikes.
The first floor is the living space where we have a large lounge diner, a small open plan eating area and a very well equipped Neff kitchen. The next floor up has two double bedrooms, one with an ensuite, and there is a family bathroom. On the top floor is the master/family bedroom with a double bed and single futon. This bedroom also has a large ensuite bathroom which has been refurbished.
We only moved into the house just over a year ago so there were and still are some small redecorating jobs to do and pictures waiting to be hung! But we are well furnished and everything’s in good working order.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

We live within a few minutes walking distance of the city centre, the castle, the train station, shops, cinemas and the other leisure facilities. However, our street is extremely quiet being largely pedestrian and only open to cars for access. We live in a small courtyard of six houses, each with their own outdoor space and parking. We have two parking spaces plus a visitor permit and day permits for the street. Our neighbours are very friendly but quiet. The street dates back to medieval times and many of the buildings are of historically interest. The river is minutes from the house and there you can kayak, row or paddle board through the city or towards the sea.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

Our house is walking distance from the castle museum, shopping malls, the six day market, the cathedral, the river, theatres, cinemas, cafes and restaurants. We are also close to the bus and railway stations. London is just 1.50 hr direct by train.
Only minutes walking distance there is a leisure complex with swimming pool and gym, also there is bowling and trampolining.
Norwich is a beautiful medieval city with many old streets and small independent shops as well as modern shopping malls. We
have several theatres and an Arts Centre and many cinemas including a Picturehouse. Just beyond the city is the Sainsbury Centre, a unique collection of ancient and modern objects and paintings from all over the world.
The Broads, a network of inland waterways is also easily accessed from the city, as is the Norfolk coast with it many sandy beaches and small seaside towns. Nearer to Norwich we have Whitlingham Lake where you can take lessons or hire kayaks, paddle boards and sailing dinghies.
The National Trust has several properties within easy reach of Norwich including Blicking Hall, thought to be the childhood home of Ann Boleyn.
Anyone wanting to play golf will be aware there are many excellent courses in North Norfolk.
Norwich and Norfolk have so much to offer people of all ages and interests.
