This studio apartment on Sprowston Road offers a compact, well-located home with allocated off-street parking and quick city-commute links. The layout combines a single lounge/bedroom, separate kitchen and bathroom — straightforward living for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor.
The property is leasehold with a low ground rent (£20) and a below-average service charge (£240). Heating is electric via room heaters and the building is mid-terrace post-war construction; buyers should expect higher running costs than gas-heated homes and consider improvements for long-term comfort.
Local amenities, frequent bus routes and several nearby schools make the location practical. Note the area shows above-average crime and higher deprivation indicators; purchasers should factor this into resale or rental pricing and tenant selection.
For an investor this flat offers simple management: compact footprint, allocated parking and fast broadband appeal to many renters. For a first-time buyer it’s an affordable entry point to Norwich, but the small room sizes and electric heating mean it suits buyers prioritising location and price over space and low bills.
