Chain-free mid-terrace with three bedrooms and off-street parking, positioned within walking distance of the University of East Anglia. The property’s solid brick build, gas central heating and double glazing (installed pre-2002) provide basic, practical accommodation ready for rental or refurbishment. At about 905 sq ft across multiple storeys, the layout includes a generous lounge/diner, separate kitchen, three first-floor bedrooms, bathroom plus a separate WC.
This house suits investors targeting student lets or buy-to-let landlords seeking reliable rental demand close to campus and local amenities. The small enclosed rear garden and driveway add tenant appeal, while full-fibre broadband and good transport links support modern rental needs. Being freehold and offered with no onward chain reduces purchase complexity.
Notable negatives are the area’s higher crime levels and local deprivation indicators, which may affect rental yields and tenant profiles. Interior photos and descriptions show dated decorative finishes and fittings; cosmetic and targeted upgrades will be needed to achieve higher rents or owner-occupier comfort. Double glazing is older and the property dates from the 1930–49 period, so prospective buyers should budget for ongoing maintenance and consider an updated energy efficiency package.
Overall, this is a pragmatic, entry-price investment with clear potential for rental income or a refurbishment-led uplift. Buyers seeking a low-fee, close-to-university holding with straightforward layout will find it attractive; those prioritising a quiet, low-crime neighbourhood or turnkey modern finish should factor in renovation and management considerations.
