The building is mid-century brick construction with standard ceiling heights and a straightforward layout.
Practical details: the flat is leasehold with 89 years remaining, an annual service charge of £236.93, and a £10 ground rent. Council tax is low (Band A). The location provides quick access to Norwich city centre, local parks such as Waterloo Park, and a number of well-rated primary and secondary schools, supporting everyday convenience.
Be aware the immediate area scores high for deprivation and records above-average crime figures; buyers should factor local context into their decision. The vendor has found a related purchase, which may support a smooth, prompt completion for a ready buyer. Overall, this is an affordable, spacious starter home with outdoor space and clear potential for cosmetic improvements.
