Summary - 19 MARSH ROAD, LOWESTOFT NR33 9JY
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious three-bedroom cottage on a large plot beside The Broads — garden, driveway and views.
Three bedrooms and two bathrooms across approx. 1,120 sq.ft
Large wrap-around garden with deck, pond and outdoor log-burner
Generous driveway providing off-street parking for multiple vehicles
Short walk to The Broads (Oulton Broad) and extensive countryside views
High flood risk — likely affects insurance and resale considerations
Above-average local crime rates; area recorded as very deprived
Electric storage heating — higher running costs than gas heating
Post‑war construction (circa 1967–75); typical maintenance likely required
Tucked away along a quiet lane, this three-bedroom cottage combines modern presentation with easy access to the Broads. The house offers bright open-plan living, a contemporary fitted kitchen, useful utility and downstairs shower room, plus two well-appointed bathrooms across 1,120 sq.ft of accommodation. The wrap-around garden, deck with log-burner and large driveway deliver strong outdoor appeal for family life and entertaining.
Practical considerations are clear: the home uses electric storage heating and is fitted with double glazing, and records indicate construction from the late 1960s–1970s, so buyers should budget for ongoing energy costs and the usual maintenance for a post‑war property. There is a high flood risk for the area and local crime levels are above average; these are material factors for insurance and long-term running costs.
Set on a generous plot with far-reaching views and The Broads (Oulton Broad) on the doorstep, the property suits buyers seeking countryside access within a town setting. Good local schools and fast broadband support family and home-working needs, while the large garden and garage/shed space provide scope for hobbies, storage or modest gardening projects.
Overall, this well-presented cottage offers immediate liveability and outdoor space in a sought-after natural location, but the flood risk, higher crime rate and electric heating are significant negatives that a buyer should weigh against the home’s location and size.
