Description

This four-bedroom link-detached house presents a promising opportunity for renovation and investment, located in a sought-after cul-de-sac just a short stroll from the amenities of a charming Suffolk village. While the property is currently in need of some modernization, it offers a variety of features that can be enhanced to suit personal tastes or attract potential renters. The ground floor comprises a spacious sitting room with dual aspects, allowing natural light to pour in through sliding doors that open onto the rear garden. Adjacent is a dining room suitable for family meals or entertaining guests. The kitchen, equipped with an array of base and wall units, provides ample space for appliances and includes a stable door that leads directly to the garden—a feature that could be leveraged for outdoor entertaining or gardening. Upstairs, the first floor accommodates four generously sized double bedrooms, providing flexibility for families or home offices. A shared bathroom completes this level, presenting further opportunity for updates to meet modern standards. Outside, you'll find both private parking and a garage which contributes additional value and convenience. The front yard features established landscaping while the enclosed rear garden offers space for landscaping creativity—as well as access to a footpath at the back—ideal for those seeking potential expansion or outdoor enjoyment. Given its location within walking distance of local shops and community amenities, this property not only promises comfortable living but also represents significant potential for appreciation post-renovation. With no onward chain, quick occupancy could be possible for those looking to invest or make this house their home.
