Disgusting and permanently dusty carpets, leading to all tenants experiencing regular sneezing fits. Poorly fitted doors and windows result in significant draughts and terrible insulation during winter, leading to costly bills. An extension to the back of the property (forming the living room area) is very poorly constructed, as I was able to see the sky through the ceiling where a crack was forming. This building has no insulation in its roofs or walls, and this again contributes to terrible temperature regulation. Serious work needs to be done to this property to justify the rental cost.
Furnishings are old and low-quality, except for a leather sofa which is average quality.
Was rented for a relatively low price, although this has increased for the last three years despite no changes to the property at all. Further, the high cost of bills means this low rental price is offset and this becomes more expensive than other options.
This property is very well located in a relatively quiet area with great connections into the city centre and bus lines to UEA.
You need to buy a parking permit to park outside the property, although there is permit-free parking a 5/10 minute walk up the road - this has a lot of competition, however.
