Summary - 18 ALMA ROAD LOWESTOFT NR32 2EA
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home near shops, schools and transport links.
Freehold two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace
This compact mid-terrace Victorian home offers an affordable entry point to Lowestoft life, ideal for first-time buyers or investors seeking a straightforward purchase. The ground floor open-plan sitting/dining room centres on a decorative fireplace and connects directly to a fitted kitchen, while two first-floor bedrooms and a bathroom complete the simple, traditional layout.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, double glazing, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. There’s a low-maintenance courtyard garden and on-street parking, with local shops, schools, healthcare and transport links within easy reach — the seafront is also nearby for leisure.
Important negatives are clear: the house is small (approximately 450 sq ft) and built with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, so heating costs and fabric upgrades should be considered. The property is in a very deprived area with very high local crime levels, which will affect lifestyle and rental demand. The EPC is D and the decor and fittings are dated, so some modernisation will be needed to improve comfort and value.
For a buyer on a budget this house represents genuine potential — either as an affordable home to personalise or as a low-cost investment to refurbish and let. Factor in refurbishment and security improvements when assessing overall cost and suitability.
