Description

Set on a generous plot in the picturesque village of Great Glemham, this four-bedroom detached home offers significant renovation and investment potential. With sweeping countryside views at the rear, this property presents an opportunity to create a customized living space tailored to modern needs while preserving its traditional charm. The house features predominantly double-glazed windows and is equipped with electric Smart heating, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons. Outside, the expansive gated driveway provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a lovely rear garden that invites outdoor living. Additionally, there is a detached garage along with a stable block, both of which could be repurposed. Notably, previous planning permission existed for the demolition of the garage and stable to make way for a two or three-bedroom dwelling (planning application number DC/20/3871/FUL), presenting an attractive avenue for those considering investment or development. Inside, the layout includes a welcoming entrance hall, an impressive 23-foot open plan kitchen/dining area ideal for family gatherings, and a separate utility room for added convenience. The ground floor also features a cloakroom and a sitting room adorned with a wood-burning stove and French doors that lead out to the front terrace. A spacious drawing room offers abundant light and versatility, while a vaulted ceiling study adds an element of elegance to the workspace. The first floor comprises four generously sized double bedrooms—one with an en-suite bathroom—and all featuring built-in wardrobes. A well-appointed four-piece family bathroom completes this level. Great Glemham's location benefits from its proximity to both Framlingham and Saxmundham, two vibrant market towns rich in history and amenities. The village itself boasts conservation status with numerous historic buildings, including a Grade I listed church. Families will appreciate being within catchment for Thomas Mills High School in Framlingham, which has received 'Good' ratings from Ofsted and offers school bus provisions. Saxmundham serves as an ideal base with its thriving high street filled with cafes, restaurants, independent shops, and supermarkets like Waitrose and Tesco. For those who enjoy exploring beyond their doorstep, Framlingham's market offerings and attractions—such as Framlingham Castle surrounded by scenic landscapes—are just short drives away. This property presents not only potential for personal customization but also opportunities for investment in an attractive rural setting that remains conveniently connected to key regional links.
