This compact Victorian mid-terrace on Union Road offers a low-cost entry into Lowestoft with strong renovation potential. Two reception rooms and two well-proportioned bedrooms sit across a traditional layout, giving scope to reconfigure or update while retaining period character such as tiled fireplaces and a red-brick facade.
Practical basics are already in place: freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, UPVC double glazing, and ultrafast broadband availability. Its small courtyard and forecourt garden provide outdoor space without heavy maintenance, and the property is within easy walking distance of the town centre and local amenities.
Buyers should be clear-eyed about the work required. The house is marketed as needing renovation; walls are likely solid brick with no built-in insulation, and some internal elements will need updating. The area records higher crime and very high deprivation; purchasers should consider security upgrades and factor these local conditions into plans.
This home suits a buyer seeking an affordable project — an owner-occupier first-time buyer or an investor prepared to refurbish and improve energy performance and finishes. The council tax band is low, and the freehold status simplifies ownership, but budget realistically for renovation, insulation, and potential cosmetic and mechanical upgrades.
