A bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace within easy walking distance of Norwich city centre, this three-bedroom home blends period character with recent updates. Sash windows, high ceilings, coving and an exposed brick chimney breast give the main reception rooms charm, while a contemporary galley kitchen and bathroom provide everyday practicality.
Practical highlights include a newly installed boiler (2024), mains gas central heating, some double glazing and fast fibre broadband availability — all useful for first-time buyers or landlords. The property is presented in good decorative order and benefits from a small, enclosed rear garden and on-street parking.
Be aware of a few constraints: the overall footprint is small (approx. 808 sq ft) and bedroom three is accessed off bedroom two, which limits privacy. The terrace has solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (as-built), so consider potential heating costs or insulation improvements. Area crime rates are above average; the location suits buyers prioritising city access over suburban seclusion.
This is a sensible purchase for a buyer seeking an affordable, characterful city home or a compact buy-to-let near the university and hospital. It offers low council tax, good transport links and demonstrable rental demand, with straightforward opportunities to add value through energy-efficiency upgrades.
