Description

This Grade II Listed timber-framed cottage, known as The Maltings, presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property rich with history and charm. Originally constructed in the 18th century, the cottage was once three separate homes and now offers nearly 1,300 sq. ft (120 sqm) of living space. While it is in need of modern updating, its generous layout includes an entrance hall, a spacious 33’ sitting and dining room, a kitchen/breakfast room, and a cloakroom on the ground floor. The first floor features two good-sized double bedrooms along with a bathroom. The exterior boasts a delightful rear garden that is fully enclosed and features well-stocked borders filled with established plants and shrubs. The central grassy area allows for low-maintenance enjoyment of outdoor space. Although there is no dedicated parking, unrestricted options are available directly beside the property and along Fore Street. Situated in the heart of Framlingham, this property benefits from being close to a variety of local amenities such as independent shops, cafes, restaurants, and essential services like schools and medical facilities. Notably recognized for its impressive castle, Framlingham also offers access to beautiful countryside walks and nearby recreational activities including golfing at locations such as Cretingham (6 miles) and Woodbridge (12 miles). With the coast just 12 miles away, residents can easily explore popular seaside destinations like Southwold and Aldeburgh. Additionally, Ipswich lies approximately 18 miles to the south-west with regular train connections to London’s Liverpool Street taking around an hour. This property's combination of historical significance and renovation potential makes it an appealing prospect for buyers seeking to create their own vision within a vibrant community. Given its central location alongside local attractions and services, The Maltings holds significant investment promise for future value enhancement through modernization efforts.
