Set in the heart of Thetford, this compact two-bedroom flat offers an economical town-centre base with modern open-plan living across two levels. The layout suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking easy access to shops, transport and local amenities. The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances and French doors to a small decked courtyard, creating a pleasant indoor-outdoor flow for a property of this size.
The property benefits from mains gas central heating with a boiler serviced in September 2025 and double glazing throughout. The larger ground-floor bedroom includes built-in storage; the contemporary shower room is practical and low-maintenance. The long lease (999 years from 2022) gives security of tenure and the annual service charge (£1,237.85) and low ground rent (£75) are clearly stated.
Buyers should note the flat is compact at about 418 sq ft and has limited garden space — a small courtyard with decking and shingled side area. The local area scores as deprived with very high recorded crime levels, which may affect living comfort or lettability for some purchasers. Broadband speeds are average, though mobile signal is excellent in the town centre.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-upkeep flat in a convenient central location, offering strong potential for a first home or rental income, provided buyers are comfortable with the compact footprint and local area characteristics.
