This two-bedroom first-floor apartment at Dovecote Gardens is a practical entry into homeownership via shared ownership (40% share). The open-plan living/dining/kitchen is fitted with contemporary units and integrated appliances, providing a comfortable, low-maintenance space for everyday life and entertaining. Two allocated off-street parking spaces add convenience for commuters.
Specification includes a thermostatically controlled shower with full-height tiling, contemporary white sanitaryware, downlighters to kitchen, bathroom and hallway, and vinyl and carpet floor coverings throughout. The development benefits from a 10-year NHBC warranty and a long lease (125 years), giving important new-build protections for buyers.
Costs and tenure are material: this is a leasehold shared-ownership offer with an annual service charge of £1,702.86 and an advertised monthly rent of £257.81 on the 40% share. Ground rent is shown as £0 initially, and buildings insurance is listed separately. Council tax banding is to be confirmed, so buyers should budget for ongoing charges in addition to mortgage and rent payments.
Location suits those seeking village-style living close to Norwich — local amenities, good schools and green spaces are nearby, with straightforward road links into the city. The apartment is a sensible choice for first-time buyers seeking reduced deposit requirements and a manageable step onto the housing ladder, though buyers must be comfortable with shared-ownership arrangements and the service charge level.
