Description

This sizeable semi-detached cottage, currently divided into two separate living units, presents a compelling renovation opportunity in a beautiful rural hamlet near Monks Eleigh. Originally converted several years ago, there is significant potential to revert it back into a single spacious residence, offering around 1,800 sq ft of adaptable living space spread across two floors. The property features charming rendered elevations under durable pantile roofs and has been well-maintained over the decades, making it an attractive project for those looking to create their ideal family home. The configuration includes No.2 with a reception hall, sitting room leading to a rear aspect kitchen/dining room, and three bedrooms plus bathroom on the first floor. No.3 comprises a sitting/dining area with kitchen and a bedroom upstairs. Both units are complemented by utility areas and cloakrooms. Outside, the property boasts generous gardens with ample parking space and an outbuilding. The mature hedges provide privacy while the views over the surrounding countryside enhance its appeal. Additionally, the presence of solar panels offers potential energy savings. With planning permission granted for adjacent land for further development, this property stands as an impressive investment prospect—perfectly situated within reach of essential amenities in Monks Eleigh and nearby towns like Lavenham and Bury St Edmunds. This charming location not only provides immediate comforts but also anticipates future growth in value amidst scenic rural surroundings.
