Quietly tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac on Empress Road, this chain-free two-bedroom first-floor flat is an accessible entry into Great Yarmouth homeownership. The layout is practical: a welcoming entrance hall leads to a bright lounge and a kitchen/dining room suitable for everyday meals and small gatherings. Both bedrooms are generous for the size and the single bathroom meets essential needs.
Outside space is a genuine benefit — front, side and a sizeable rear garden with a shed give unusually large private outdoor areas for an apartment. The building is a post‑war semi‑detached form with double glazing and gas central heating, so it presents straightforward, low‑risk living with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note this is a small overall property (approximately 512 sq ft) and sold leasehold with about 106 years remaining. The wider neighbourhood scores high on deprivation and local crime is elevated, which may concern some purchasers. There is also assumed lack of cavity wall insulation, so some energy improvements could be needed to reduce heating costs.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who values outdoor space and move‑in readiness without a chain. It offers clear potential to personalise the interior and improve efficiency, while the low council tax and transport/amenity links support affordable ongoing running costs.
