A charming ground-floor maisonette in a handsome 1896 Victorian building, moments from Lowestoft South beach and seafront gardens. The apartment offers two double bedrooms, a master with en-suite, a generous sitting room with period details and a kitchen/diner opening from the entrance hall. The private south-west facing rear garden, handy low-maintenance front garden, off-road parking and an en-bloc garage add practical outdoor space and storage.
The flat is comfortable and ready to live in: gas central heating with a 2018 combi boiler, a newly updated consumer unit with certificate, and a fitted alarm system are reassuring modern updates. Period features such as sash windows, a gas fireplace and hidden polished hardwood flooring give the home character and further potential for light cosmetic improvement.
Important practical points are laid out plainly: the property is a leasehold with a one-fifth share of the freehold via the management company, and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation. The surrounding area shows signs of deprivation and recorded above-average local crime, which may affect long-term resale or rental demand. Broadband speeds are fast and transport links to Norwich and beyond are good.
This maisonette will suit buyers seeking a characterful, low-maintenance coastal home close to amenities and beach life — particularly downsizers or anyone wanting a seaside base with secure parking and outside space. Buyers who prioritise energy efficiency or low-crime neighbourhoods should factor in potential improvements and local conditions.
