Fornham Road, Bury St. Edmunds

Believed to date from the late Victorian /early Edwardian period, this attractive townhouse occupies a convenient setting within easy reach of the town centre and railway station.

The house has been exceptionally well cared for and retains much of its character, with high ceilings and good natural light. Although very much in a good condition, it still offers an exciting opportunity for buyers to place their own stamp on the property if desired.

With generous established gardens, versatile accommodation and a very welcoming feel, this charming home would suit families, professionals, or anyone looking for an elegant house in a sought-after area.

In more detail, the accommodation comprises:

On the ground floor:
The entrance hall has a staircase to the first floor and also gives access to the sitting room and dining room. The sitting room is a lovely, bright space with a bay window, a feature fireplace, a fitted picture rail, and a high ceiling. The dining room is equally well proportioned with another fireplace, French doors leading into the kitchen/breakfast room, and a further door leading down to the cellar.

Leading off the dining room is the kitchen/breakfast room, which includes ample cupboards, worktop surfaces, and appliance space. With some updating, this room could easily become the heart of the home. Leading off the kitchen is a small utility area and a downstairs cloakroom.

On the lower floor:
The cellar has been converted to provide useful additional accommodation and would be perfect as a home office, gym, or occasional bedroom. There is natural light and a built-in cupboard.

On the first floor:
A spacious landing area gives access to both bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom 1 is a very large double room with a Victorian-style fireplace and 2 windows, making it possible to divide into 2 smaller bedrooms if desired. Bedroom 2 is a very comfortable double room again with a fireplace. Finally, the bathroom is very spacious and includes a separate shower cubicle.

Outside:
The property is set back well from the road with a lawned garden being bordered by mature hedging. The rear garden affords a good degree of privacy and seclusion and is well established with a patio area, lawn, and well-stocked flower and shrub borders. To the rear boundary is a useful garden shed and a rear pedestrian access. The house has no allocated parking, but ample parking is available in the road just around the corner in Avenue Approach.
