Lackford, Bury St. Edmunds

REFURBISHMENT OPPORTUNITY WITH SCOPE TO EXTEND AND NESTLED IN A LARGE BUILDING PLOT WITH POTENTIAL FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT (SUBJECT TO PLANNING CONSENT), IDEALLY SITUATED CLOSE TO HISTORIC CATHEDRAL TOWN OF BURY ST. EDMUNDS

This three-bedroom end-of-terrace Victorian home has come to the market for the first time in seventy years. Ripe for refurbishment, it presents the ultimate blank canvas for buyers to put their own signature on, or for developers to potentially redevelop the plot further. The entrance hall opens up to a large light-filled sitting room with a traditional multi-fuel stove as the focal point. The kitchen space has a walk-in larder and an updated oil-fired boiler system while a ground floor bathroom suite is fitted with a panelled bath. Upstairs the three bedrooms are fitted with extensive storage cupboards and all windows and doors of the home are uPVC.

Fully enclosed mature landscaped gardens and grounds are a distinguishing feature with scope for an extension to the rear incorporating the workshops and its position in a large and idyllic 0.40 acre plot with separate access to garaging that could form the footprint of a further dwelling (subject to the necessary planning consents being obtained).

LOCATION:

The property lies on the edge of a semi-rural and much favoured village of Lackford – only six miles north-west of the fine Suffolk cathedral town of Bury St. Edmunds. The University City of Cambridge is easily reached via the A14 east-west major road link, which is accessed via neighbouring Risby village to facilitate commuting ease, and with the M11 providing a fast route to London. An eclectic range of high street and independent shops, and some of the country’s finest restaurants – including the only Michelin star in Suffolk – and leisure facilities can be found within a short drive as are the majestic rambling Lackford Lakes and Cavenham Heath.
