Summary - 48 MAGDALEN ROAD NORWICH NR3 4AG
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Three-bedroom city home with strong renovation potential and walkable amenities.
Bay-front Victorian terrace with original character features
This bay-fronted Victorian terraced house in NR3 offers a rare entry-point into a central, characterful part of Norwich. With three bedrooms across two storeys and about 1,141 sq ft of space, it suits first-time buyers who want a roomy urban home within easy walking distance of the city centre, parks, pubs and cafés.
Internally the property retains period appeal and sensible room proportions — a bay-front lounge, separate dining room, practical kitchen with adjoining utility and a large four-piece bathroom. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband make it city-living friendly for work, study and streaming. The home is freehold and offered chain-free for a quicker move.
There is clear potential to modernise and add value: the house has solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation), an EPC rating of D and original heating via mains-gas boiler and radiators. The narrow staircase and some dated fixtures suggest a programme of updating would deliver comfort and energy savings.
Be realistic about location-related issues. The area is classed as deprived with above-average crime rates and a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood nearby — factors that may affect resale or rental appeal. Schools and local amenities are close by, but the plot is small and outdoor space limited. Overall this is a central, character property with good renovation upside for an owner-occupier or investor prepared to update it.
