A home which "blends character charm with modern convenience" has gone up for sale on the outskirts of the city.

Hunters Lodge sits in Spixworth Road, Old Catton, and is being marketed by abbotFox for a guide price of £800,000. 

Over the years, the house has undergone a string of refurbishments and extensions - but nods to the original building have been maintained throughout.
