Description

Located in the charming village of Sturmer, which borders Essex and Suffolk, this pre-18th century cottage offers significant renovation and investment potential. With over 2,900 square feet of living space, the property has a versatile layout that includes the original dining room with a log-burning stove and a modern kitchen fitted with integrated appliances. The rear extension, formerly an indoor swimming pool, presents an opportunity for repurposing either back into a pool or as additional living areas by removing existing structures. The cottage features five generous bedrooms on the first floor along with a family bathroom, ensuring ample accommodation for families or guests. Outside, there is off-road parking and a double garage that has potential for conversion into a home office. The expansive garden provides space for outdoor living and is bordered by mature trees. This property stands ready for someone to enhance its character and functionality further, subject to necessary permissions. The local amenities of Clare are just 5.5 miles away, making it well-positioned for both rural tranquillity and convenient commuting options to London via nearby stations.
