Description

This three-bedroom period cottage, located in the desirable village of Orford, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled close to the local amenities, including the acclaimed Pump Street Bakery and within walking distance of Orford Castle and the Quay, this property offers tremendous potential. Constructed from mellow red brick and topped with a tiled roof, the home boasts electric heating but requires significant updates to reach its full potential. Inside, the space is spread over two floors beginning with a sitting room that features charming exposed wooden floorboards and an open fireplace. The adjoining kitchen/breakfast room awaits modernization with plans for a new kitchen installation. A lobby area leads to a family bathroom that could benefit from refurbishment. The upper floor contains two double bedrooms alongside a single bedroom, offering ample sleeping arrangements. Outside, you will find a quaint courtyard garden complete with terrace space and three small outbuildings that could be repurposed or renovated. This property has already undergone some updating by previous owners but remains an unfinished project ready for your personal touch. The surrounding village of Orford is rich in amenities including pubs, shops, and outdoor pursuits along the River Ore. With added accessibility to the larger market town of Woodbridge nearby, this cottage not only offers a comfortable living space but also excellent investment potential as it can be tailored to modern tastes while preserving its historical charm.
