- EPC C; mains gas boiler and radiators in place

This versatile three-storey end-of-terrace townhouse offers a flexible five-bedroom layout ideal for a growing household or a multi-let/investment setup. Two rooms on the ground floor work well as bedrooms, bedrooms-to-let or reception spaces, while the first-floor kitchen/breakfast room and separate sitting room create a comfortable social floor with a west-facing balcony and central fireplace.
Practical city living is supported by a rear west-facing courtyard for outdoor use, a utility room, modern shower room, family bathroom and an en-suite. Parking in the rear cart lodge is a notable city-centre benefit. Services are all connected and the property currently holds an EPC rating of C.
Buyers should factor in location and fabric details: the property sits in a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood with very high local crime and a wider area classed as deprived. The solid brick walls are presumed uninsulated and the double glazing pre-dates 2002, so further insulation and energy upgrades could be required to improve comfort and running costs. Council Tax is Band E (above average).
Overall this freehold townhouse suits purchasers seeking flexible city accommodation with parking and good connectivity to Norwich centre. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers looking for room to adapt or investors targeting short-term let/house-share potential, provided they are comfortable with the local area profile and possible retrofit costs.
