Description - A Grade II listed home of immense charm and character, ideally situated within the conservation area of this highly sought-after East Suffolk market town, just a short stroll from the High Street and railway station.

S Suffolk longhouse dating back to the beginning of the 18th century or possibly earlier, the property now forms an impressive single residence. Constructed of painted brick beneath a slate roof to the front and pantiles to the rear, with traditional brick stacks, it offers a wonderful blend of historic elegance and practical living.

Set back from the road behind a low brick wall, the house is approached via a paved front garden. The principal entrance opens into a welcoming hall with striking checkerboard tiled flooring, leading through to the main reception rooms.

The sitting room is a particularly elegant space, featuring exposed timbers, a tiled floor, and a recessed inglenook fireplace with timber bressummer. A graceful curved staircase rises from here to the first-floor landing, while leaded light windows and a glazed door provide access to the enclosed rear garden. A lobby off the sitting room offers an additional entrance to the front and leads to a further reception room.

The spacious kitchen/dining room is full of character, with exposed timber flooring, a recessed fireplace, and views over the street. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and wall units, an electric oven and hob, and a central island. Beyond lies a large utility room with further storage and direct access to the garden, along with a ground floor bathroom.

The first floor is accessed via both the main staircase and a secondary staircase from the kitchen, adding to the home’s period charm. There are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an elegant principal bedroom with a stone fireplace and access to its own bathroom, with a separate WC located off the landing. An enclosed staircase from the rear bedroom leads to a large attic.

Outside, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a timber-boarded garage. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys a south-westerly aspect, with a variety of seating areas and well-stocked borders filled with flowering plants—creating a delightful and private outdoor space.
