All aboard! A unique opportunity has rolled in to Rightmove giving you the chance to own a property that was once used as a railway station!‘The Old Railway Station’ in Long Melford, Sudbury boasts 4 bedrooms and is currently on the market for £475,000. The property itself hasn’t been used as a station since 1967 and any trace of railway track has been covered with manicured lawns. However it’s clear that the property is steeped in history with various nods to its previous use scattered around the grounds.
The former station comes complete with an impressive kitchen (with doors opening onto old platforms), a swimming pool and an annexed office space on ‘Platform 2’. The self-contained annex was once a waiting room and still houses the original sash windows and fireplace.
If you’ve always dreamed of being a train conductor (there must a few out there) or just fancy something a bit different from your home, check out these locomotive-themed properties available on Rightmove:
