This top-floor two-bedroom apartment offers freshly modernised, low-maintenance living in a convenient NR3 location. The accommodation is bright and neutral throughout, with a generous sitting room, contemporary kitchen and built-in storage — ready to occupy or rent out immediately. Residents’ parking and a brick storage shed add practical benefits for everyday life.
Practical running costs are competitive: a 102-year lease remains, the service charge is low (£431.36 pa) and ground rent is nominal (£10 pa). The home has double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC rating of C, keeping energy performance reasonable for a property of its age.
The property sits within communal gardens and is a short walk from supermarkets, schools and regular bus routes into Norwich city centre — helpful for first-time buyers relying on local amenities and transport. At 615 sq ft the layout is compact but efficient, suitable for those seeking an affordable step onto the property ladder or a straightforward buy-to-let.
Buyers should note the wider NR3 area scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is above average; local social and economic challenges exist and may affect long-term resale or lettings. The apartment block dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so while this flat is newly renovated, buyers should factor in the building’s age when considering future maintenance or communal repairs.
