This bay-fronted mid-terrace sits in the heart of Norwich’s popular Golden Triangle, a short walk from cafés, shops and good transport links. The house has three bedrooms across two floors, a comfortable lounge and separate dining room, plus a private, raised rear garden that’s low maintenance and mostly paved. Full fibre broadband, double glazing and gas central heating make it ready for modern living.
The layout suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let landlords: compact, easily managed rooms and a single bathroom keep running costs modest, and the property is offered freehold with a low council tax band. The location is a major draw — good local primary and secondary schools, easy access to the city centre, the university and the hospital increase rental and resale appeal.
There are a few practical points to note. The house is relatively small (approx. 808 sq ft) with a compact plot and one bathroom serving three bedrooms. Some original solid brick walls are likely uninsulated (as-built), so new owners may want to consider insulation upgrades. Bedroom three is accessed via bedroom two, which may limit privacy for families. Overall, this is a well-presented period terrace with clear potential as an affordable starter home or rental unit in a sought-after location.
