Charlie Lawes, 19, has pleaded guilty to arson with intent to endanger life or being reckless as to whether life was endangered.
It follows an incident between July 10 and 12 last year when the front door of a property in Manby Road, Heartsease was damaged by fire.
Lawes, of Lavengro Road, Norwich, has also pleaded guilty to attempted arson on or about August 4 last year, involving damage to a Vauxhall Zafira.
Appearing at Norwich Crown Court he also denied another offence of sending an offensive message, on August 4 last year.
