2 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright period home near cathedral and riverside, ready to personalise.
First-floor flat in Grade II listed Georgian townhouse
Set on the first floor of a handsome Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, this two-bedroom flat offers a bright, airy home close to Norwich Cathedral, the riverside and the city centre. Tall sash windows and high ceilings create a generous living room that feels larger than the floorplan suggests — ideal for first-time buyers wanting space and character.
The accommodation includes a good-sized double bedroom and a larger-than-average single that could work as a home office or dressing room. The kitchen and bathroom are functional, and gas central heating keeps the flat comfortable. Permit parking is available in the CAT zone (subject to application), adding practical convenience for city living.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with approximately 87 years remaining, a service charge of around £585 per year and a nominal ground rent of £10. As a listed building, any structural or external changes may require Listed Building Consent and could complicate renovations. The property’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so updating windows, insulation or heating could improve energy efficiency and running costs.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking a characterful city base with potential to personalise, or investors looking for central Norwich rental demand. Be aware of the local environment: recorded crime levels are high, so consider security measures. Viewings will suit buyers who value location and period features and accept that some updating and listed-building restrictions may be required.
