This chain-free, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in NR3 offers a bright, practical layout with generous lounge-diner proportions and a spacious double bedroom. Positioned close to local shops, buses and several well-rated schools, it suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking convenient city living with good broadband and mobile reception.
The building dates from the 1980s and benefits from double glazing and a communal garden. Heating is mains-gas boiler to radiators. The accommodation is straightforward and well presented in places, with scope for cosmetic updating to increase rental yield or personal comfort.
There are important leasehold considerations: just 58 years remain on the lease and ground rent is £100. Mortgage lenders may refuse to lend, and buyers should obtain full lease, service charge and financing advice before committing. The local area is classified as very deprived and recorded as having above-average crime rates, which will influence resale and rental prospects.
A visible mould issue was noted in the bedroom and the bathroom is compact; both should be assessed and remediated. An internal viewing is recommended for anyone considering this property — it provides an affordable entry into Norwich but carries clear practical and legal matters to resolve first.
