***Quote Ref: 816244 when calling***


Set on Ridley Road on the popular Westley Estate in Bury St Edmunds, this end-of-terrace home offers far more than you might expect at first glance. The location is a big part of the appeal. You’ve got a local park directly opposite, which is ideal for children, wide open green space nearby, and a small parade of shops around 100 yards away, including a Premier and takeaway options. It’s one of those spots that makes day-to-day life feel easy. Good local schools are close by, Bury St Edmunds station is around 1.7 miles away, and the town centre is only about 1.4 miles from the house, making this a really practical place to live for commuting, family life, and getting around town.

Inside, the house has been significantly upgraded by the current owners and feels a cut above what many buyers might expect from a home of this type. The downstairs layout has been opened up to create a spacious, sociable flow between the living area and the kitchen, which completely transforms the feel of the house. There is a real sense of light and openness throughout, helped further by the quality of finish and the care that has gone into every improvement.

The living space is particularly impressive, with a multifuel log burner set within a beautiful stone fireplace creating a brilliant focal point. This part of the house feels smart as well as comfortable, with silhouette electric blinds and lighting that can be controlled by Wi-Fi, adding another level of convenience and polish.

The kitchen is a real standout too. It has been done to a very high standard, with Neff appliances, honed granite worktops, and a finish that feels both practical and premium. It is the sort of kitchen that genuinely feels like the heart of the home. The downstairs WC has also been cleverly reworked to include a hidden utility area, making excellent use of the space while keeping things tidy and functional.

Upstairs, the house continues to impress. There are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the whole property feeling exceptionally well insulated and thoughtfully improved. Extra acoustic insulation has been added within the walls, helping to make the home feel calmer and quieter, while additional storage has also been created in the smaller bedroom. The property is double glazed throughout, has a fairly recent boiler, full loft insulation and boarding, and benefits from Mitsubishi air conditioning units upstairs and downstairs.

One of the most notable practical upgrades is the energy setup. The property has 25 solar panels and Tesla battery storage, which is a huge bonus both financially and environmentally.
Outside, the garden is another really enjoyable part of the home. There is a lovely patio area that gives it almost a courtyard feel near the house, then a pathway leading through a good-sized lawned garden with sheds at the rear for extra storage. There is also excellent off-road parking to the front.

Overall, this is a home that feels smart, efficient, and very well cared for. It is absolutely move-in ready, with a level of finish and specification that is hard to replicate without significant expense. It would suit first-time buyers, families wanting more space, or investors looking for a strong, well-located property in excellent condition.
