Built 1967–1975; cavity walls likely uninsulated — consider wall insulation

Freehold tenure and low council tax (Band B)
This single-storey semi-detached bungalow offers a compact, low-maintenance home in central Gorleston, well suited to first-time buyers or those looking to downsize. The layout includes two bedrooms, a lounge, kitchen/diner and a rear garden accessed via French doors — practical living on one level with off-street parking and a detached store/garage to the rear.
The property is presented in generally modern condition with UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and laminate/hardwood floors in key rooms. Its modest footprint and straightforward plan make it easy to run and adapt; there is scope to update finishes or improve energy efficiency, notably wall insulation and glazing upgrades, to reduce running costs.
Location is a key strength: central Gorleston places shops, bus routes, primary and secondary schools and the beach within easy reach. However, the wider area faces pronounced deprivation and the local crime rate is above average — buyers should weigh community factors alongside the property’s practical benefits.
Sold freehold with inexpensive council tax (Band B), this bungalow is a sensible option for buyers seeking a simple coastal base, a manageable long-term home, or a buy-to-let/refurbishment opportunity. The compact size limits internal storage and living space, so viewings are recommended to judge suitability.
