Set on Queens Road in Lowestoft, this Victorian semi-detached house offers practical, flexible living across three bedrooms and an open-plan ground floor. The bay-front sitting room and high ceilings retain period character while the paved courtyard garden provides low-maintenance outdoor space and storage.
The property is ready to customise: the layout and solid-brick construction present clear renovation potential, but also mean owner-led improvements (insulation, decor, possible modernising) will be needed to maximise comfort and energy efficiency. Heating is by mains gas combi boiler and double glazing was fitted after 2002.
Location is a strong selling point for buyers prioritising schools, shopping and transport links; the train and bus stations are within easy reach and several primary and secondary schools serve the area. Be aware the neighbourhood records very high crime and significant area deprivation, and the plot is small with nearby adjoining properties and some commercial premises immediately adjacent.
This is a straightforward freehold purchase for anyone wanting a period property to personalise or an investor seeking a city-town rental; the low council tax is an added practical saving, but factor in likely refurbishment costs and the local social challenges when considering potential rental income or resale value.
