Description

Situated in the heart of a sought-after village, this charming period property, formerly a bakery, boasts substantial living space of around 2,200 sq ft spread over two floors. The home features an inviting entrance hall that leads to a range of well-sized rooms, including a drawing room with an open fireplace and fitted bookshelves, a dining room with a wood-burning stove, and multiple additional spaces that offer great versatility. This house offers four generous double bedrooms on the upper floor alongside a family bathroom. Although this residence has been lovingly maintained for nearly 50 years, it is now in need of modernization to reach its full potential. Updating the kitchen and bathrooms along with enhancing the decorative finishes can transform this characterful home into a contemporary haven while preserving its charm. Outside, the property benefits from mature gardens extending to approximately 1/3rd of an acre, featuring established shrub beds and direct river frontage. With ample parking available and the added bonus of a single garage, the outdoor space is both practical and picturesque. Located close to local amenities and good transport links to major towns such as Bury St Edmunds and Cambridge further enhances its appeal as an investment opportunity for those looking to add value through renovation.
