Description

This semi-detached three-bedroom home presents a unique opportunity for renovation and potential expansion. Located just beyond the scenic Suffolk Heritage Coastline in Leiston, the property boasts convenient access to a variety of local amenities, including shops, supermarkets, and healthcare facilities, all within a short distance. Entering through a glass porch into a welcoming hallway, you’ll find updates like new carpeting and insulation. While the kitchen is modern with integrated appliances, it offers scope for further customization. The living room features a charming log burner and dual aspect windows that invite natural light, but could benefit from some reconfiguration for an open-plan feel. Upstairs, the bedrooms are all generously sized and well-lit with double-glazing; however, they could be refreshed to match contemporary standards. The bathroom is already modernized but might be enhanced further depending on your vision. The expansive garden includes a decking area and patio, providing excellent outdoor space which is perfect for entertaining or relaxation. A key feature of this property is the previously approved planning permission for an extensive wrap-around extension that has since expired—this opens the door to significant enhancement possibilities (subject to reapplication). Additionally, the garage requires attention; its renovation or removal could further optimize the space within your plans. Overall, this home is perfectly positioned for someone looking to invest in property development while enjoying community living in a desirable area.
