A larger-than-average Victorian mid-terrace, this three-bedroom home offers genuine project potential close to Lowestoft town centre and the train station. The property retains period features — high ceilings, a bay window and fireplaces — and includes separate lounge and dining rooms, a first-floor bathroom and a small enclosed rear yard with a brick-built store/workshop. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern living or rental demand.
The house is sold freehold and chain-free, making it straightforward for first-time buyers or investors to proceed. The solid brick construction provides a sturdy base, but the property requires modernisation throughout: cosmetic and systems upgrading, insulation improvements and likely kitchen and bathroom replacement. Expect renovation costs and plan for updating heating controls and electrics where necessary.
Location strengths include proximity to local shops, healthcare, leisure amenities and several primary and secondary schools (some rated Good). The neighbourhood is in a very deprived area with very high recorded crime levels; this is an important consideration for residents and landlords. The small rear plot limits outdoor space but the workshop adds useful storage or hobby space.
Overall, this terraced home suits a buyer prepared to invest time and money to unlock its character and rental or resale value. It’s an accessible entry into the Lowestoft market with clear upside for someone comfortable managing a refurbishment in a challenging local market.
