Close to UEA; big garden and clear extension potential for buyers seeking space.
Chain free sale with immediate vacant possession
Large corner plot with scope to extend (STNPP)
Driveway, double gates and detached garage provide good parking
Close walking distance to the University of East Anglia
Non-standard steel-frame construction — lender restrictions possible
Buyer pays £1,500 + VAT completion fee
Located in a higher-crime, more deprived area
Property is dated and will require cosmetic updating
Set close to the UEA, this three-bedroom semi offers a large corner plot and scope to extend (STNPP). The accommodation includes a long lounge, kitchen/breakfast room, sun room, utility, ground-floor cloakroom and a first-floor wet room — practical living for families or sharers.
The site is a standout: double gates, driveway parking and a detached garage sit alongside substantial side and rear garden areas. With planning approval potential, an extension could create a much larger family home or a multi-occupancy rental unit.
Buyers should note the property is classed as non-standard construction (steel frame) — mortgages are still obtainable but lenders may have specific requirements. There is a buyer’s purchase fee of £1,500 plus VAT payable on completion and the location is in a higher-crime, more deprived neighbourhood, which will affect suitability for some purchasers.
Offered chain free, the house is structurally usable but cosmetically dated in places and will reward updating and modernisation. For those wanting proximity to university facilities or a project with clear extension potential, this plot represents significant opportunity.
