Summary - 21, Maidstone Road, NORWICH NR1 1EA
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Long lease and secure parking ideal for investors or city professionals.
Two double bedrooms in a contemporary first-floor apartment
A compact two-bedroom first-floor apartment in the heart of Norwich city centre, offered chain free with a long lease (231 years remaining). The block is modern and purpose-built (c.2007–2011) and the flat benefits from double glazing, electric central heating to radiators and a private allocated secure underground parking space — a rare city-centre convenience.
The open-plan living area has quality laminate flooring and a Juliet balcony that brings light into the space. The fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and the bathroom is contemporary with a shower over the bath. Broadband is fast and the property sits close to rail links, retail, bars and university campuses, making it straightforward to let to professionals or students.
Running costs and tenure are important: the apartment is leasehold with service charges averaging £3,432 per year and ground rent around £275 annually. The overall footprint is small (563 sq ft), so purchasers should expect compact rooms and limited storage compared with larger flats. The neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan, student-heavy area with high local crime statistics and higher deprivation scores — factors that affect desirability and lettings strategies.
This property will suit investors seeking central city returns or first-time buyers wanting a low-maintenance base near transport and amenities. Budget realistically for the service charge and consider a rental management plan if holding as an investment; the long lease and secure parking are strong value drivers in this location.
