Summary - 1 BIRKBECK ROAD NORWICH NR1 2JZ
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Affordable 3-bed near Norwich centre with garden and staircasing option.
50% shared ownership with option to staircase to 100%
This three-bedroom semi-detached house on Birkbeck Road is offered on a 50% shared ownership basis with the option to staircase to 100%. The property sits just south of Norwich city centre, close to shops, transport links, schools and green spaces—an affordable route onto the ladder for many first-time buyers.
Internally the home is thoughtfully updated and well maintained. A spacious lounge leads to a bright conservatory and the modern fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and tiled flooring. Three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom provide practical family accommodation across approximately 854 sq ft, with gas central heating and double glazing for comfort.
Outside there is a private, enclosed rear garden with patio, timber decking, lawn and mature shrubs—good for outdoor relaxing and entertaining. The lease is long (999 years), council tax is low and broadband and mobile signals are strong, which suits commuters and home workers.
Important considerations: this is a leasehold shared ownership sale subject to housing-provider eligibility and staircasing rules. Ground rent information supplied indicates a very high charge (listed as £3,780); buyers must verify all lease charges and service costs with legal advice. The local area is indicated as very deprived with above-average crime levels; prospective purchasers should factor neighbourhood context and security into their decision. The EPC rating is E and the cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect energy bills until improved.
