This Grade II listed first-floor apartment sits in the heart of Norwich’s cathedral quarter, offering generous rooms and period character across an unusually large 1,346 sq ft layout. High Georgian ceilings, ornate mouldings, sash windows and a central fireplace create a striking main reception ideal for entertaining or relaxed city living. The principal bedroom includes an en suite with a roll-top bath; a second bedroom and shower room complete the accommodation.
Practical benefits include gated allocated off-street parking, lift access to the first floor, gas central heating and mains services. The flat’s size and central location suit someone wanting a city base with character or an investor targeting premium short-let or long-term rental demand in a popular central area.
Material negatives are explicit: the building’s Grade II listed status will limit alterations and may complicate works or conversions. The property is leasehold with 105 years remaining and an annual service charge of about £3,800. Broadband speeds are reported slow, and the local area records very high crime — both important for occupiers to consider.
Overall, this is a distinctive, spacious city-centre apartment that balances handsome period features with the practical realities of listed living: desirable for buyers who value character and location and who accept constraints on changes, higher running costs, and local-area issues.
