Description

Sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, dining room/playroom and garden room.  Three bedrooms, shower room, and additional WC.  Driveway and parking area.  Gardens and grounds of approximately 0.42 acres (0.17 hectares).

No forward chain.

Location
The property is set along Mount Pleasant, just a short walk from the centre of the town.  Framlingham is probably best known for its fine medieval castle managed by English Heritage.  Framlingham is home to a good selection of independent shops and businesses including cafés, restaurants, hairdressers, antique shops, a travel agency and delicatessen.  It is also home to the Crown Hotel, Barclays Bank and a Co-operative supermarket.  Away from Market Hill are a number of other businesses including pubs, vets, a medical centre and schools.  Sir Robert Hitcham's Primary School and Thomas Mills High School are both well regarded.  There is also Framlingham College, which is served by its preparatory school, Brandeston Hall, some 5 miles away.  

Framlingham is surrounded by delightful villages, many of which have popular public houses.  There are lovely walks from Framlingham into the surrounding countryside, and amenities such as golf in the nearby locations of Cretingham (6 miles), Woodbridge (12 miles) and Aldeburgh (13 miles).  The world famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall is within easy reach (10½ miles).  There is also bird watching at the RSPB centre at Minsmere (15 miles).  Framlingham is only 12 miles from the coast as the crow flies, with the popular destinations of Southwold, Dunwich, Thorpeness and Orford all a short drive away.  The county town of Ipswich lies approximately 18 miles to the south-west and from here there are regular services to London's Liverpool Street Station, scheduled to take just over the hour.

Directions
From the Agent’s office proceed north out of the town on College Road.  Turn left into Mount Pleasant and the property will be found on the left hand side.

Description
Windwhistle is a substantial detached three bedroom bungalow, that probably originally dates from the 1960s, and which now requires updating and refurbishing throughout.  In all the accommodation extends to over 1,700 sq. ft (159 sqm) and comprises a 26’ sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, dining/playroom and garden room.  There are also three double bedrooms, a shower room and separate WC.

Outside there is a shared driveway, which is flanked by gardens, that leads to a generous parking and turning area.  The majority of the gardens are to the side and rear of Windwhistle, and facing in southerly and westerly directions, these enjoy the sun throughout the day. 

Whilst the property does benefit from gas-fired central heating and double/secondary glazing throughout, it does now warrant a programme of renovation and refurbishment, which could potentially include reconfiguring and/or extending the accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.  

Prospective purchasers should note that the neighbouring property, Eolian Place, has recently been built and is in the final few weeks of being completed.  Eolian Place benefits from a right of way over the driveway owned by Windwhistle, subject to contributing a 50% share of the maintenance and repair costs of the driveway.  As the next door property is nearing completion, it is intended that the drive will be finished in shingle with the initial entrance way laid to tarmac.  

Viewing Strictly by appointment with the agent.  

Services  Mains water, drainage, gas and electricity connected.  Gas-fired boiler serving the central heating and hot water systems.

About Clarke & Simpson

Clarke & Simpson is an independent firm of Chartered Surveyors dealing in rural property matters including estate agency, residential lettings, farm and land sales, professional valuations, estate management, auctioneering and architectural work. With a team of over thirty working from our office in the medieval town of Framlingham, we pride ourselves on our wealth of experience and knowledge and do our very best to a offer a completely dedicated, personal and professional service.

Whilst our business is based around bricks and mortar, more fundamentally it is about people and this is where Clarke & Simpson hope that we genuinely excel. We believe our reputation is built on openness and honesty.

History

The business was started in Christopher Clarke's playroom back in 1989. Christopher had previously been the managing director of a large corporate agency and was keen to get back to his original roots of selling property and offering a first class personal service. The business may have grown but there is still the great enthusiasm from all the team to offer the highest quality care and attention.

Service

We all detest phoning any business and either getting an answerphone or speaking to someone who cannot help and are simply fielding the call. We really want everyone who contacts us to feel that we have done our very best to help in a prompt and efficient manner. When you call during working hours you will always get to speak to one of our experienced team, not an answer phone. If that person cannot immediately help you, they will do their utmost to find someone who can.

  • Call us and always get to speak to a member of our experienced staff and never an answerphone during office hours.
  • With our team of over thirty, including eight Chartered Surveyors, we are confident that our personal and truly professional service will most often be a cut above the rest.
  • Our agents have lived and worked in Suffolk for most of their lives and are proud of the fact that they know most small lanes, pubs, schools and parishes in the area, and can offer buyers and sellers honest and knowledgeable advice.
  • We work on the basis that, having dealt with Clarke & Simpson, you would be happy and keen to recommend us to your family and friends.
