Description
7 Ballygate, Beccles – A Rare Historic Gem in the Heart of Town
Set in one of Beccles’ most desirable addresses, 7 Ballygate is a striking Grade II Listed period home steeped in history — believed to date back to circa 1580, and once forming part of the town’s old Crown and Anchor coaching inn.
Inside, the property offers an abundance of character and charm, with fine examples of 16th-century timber framing and well-proportioned rooms throughout. The elegant drawing room is particularly impressive — a large, light-filled space that flows into a formal dining area and a south-facing conservatory, which looks out over the private courtyard garden.
The ground floor also includes a spacious entrance hall, a well-equipped kitchen, utility room, and cloakroom/WC. Upstairs, you’ll find three generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a large central landing. A drop-down staircase leads to a vast attic room (measuring approx. 39' x 13') — offering excellent potential for further accommodation, subject to the usual consents.
Outside Space & Setting
Electric gates to the side of the property provide access to a secluded courtyard-style garden, with ample private parking, a garage, and several useful outbuildings. A standout feature is the covered outdoor dining and BBQ area — perfect for entertaining. A second, enclosed rear courtyard offers pedestrian access to Hungate.
The Location
Ballygate is part of Beccles’ Conservation Area, known for its beautiful period buildings and quiet setting just a short stroll (approx. 100 yards) from the town centre.
Beccles itself is a thriving market town offering a range of shops, cafés, restaurants, and good local schools, plus a train station with services to London via Ipswich. The town sits on the River Waveney, linking into the Broads National Park, and is surrounded by scenic walking routes including Beccles Marsh. The Norfolk coast is just 9 miles away, and Norwich city centre is within easy reach at around 18 miles.
Beccles also hosts popular annual events such as the Autumn Beer Festival, Beccles Carnival, and the Antique Street Market, adding to its lively, welcoming community feel.
