This detached four-bedroom house, known as The Rectory, is situated on a generous plot at the edge of the quaint village of Hepworth, offering potential for significant renovation and enhancement. With around 1,800 sq.ft of living space, the property features an entrance lobby and hall, an 18-foot sitting room that leads to a dining area, a study, utility room, and cloakroom on the ground floor. Upstairs accommodates a master bedroom with en-suite bathroom alongside two additional double bedrooms and a single bedroom with its own bathroom.
The exterior boasts an ample driveway leading to an attached garage and well-sized gardens that provide views over St Peter’s Church and surrounding countryside. Although the property benefits from modern UPVC double glazing and an oil-fired boiler, it requires substantive refurbishments to bring it up to contemporary standards. Importantly, there is the potential to extend into the spacious rear garden (subject to local planning permissions), making this a promising investment opportunity for those looking to add value in a desirable rural setting.
Notably, previous structural reports have indicated issues with cracking in external brickwork related primarily to the garage structure; however, this offers a clear starting point for refurbishment considerations. Interested parties may request further details on the structural survey conducted by J P Chick & Partners Ltd. The location also provides good access routes to nearby towns such as Bury St Edmunds and Diss via the A143, enhancing its appeal for family or long-term residential use.
