Spacious period family home with large garden and versatile living space.
Five double bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms
A striking Victorian former school converted to a spacious family home, set in about 0.45 acres with wide country views. High ceilings, tall sash windows and substantial reception space give real character and flexibility: four reception rooms, a large kitchen/dining area with pantry, utility, and five double bedrooms across multiple floors. The plot includes landscaped gardens, a summerhouse and a small vegetable plot, plus a broad gravel driveway providing plentiful parking.
This house will suit families seeking space and period character in a quiet Suffolk village. Local primary and secondary schools are rated Good, and the village amenities and church add to the community feel. Practical benefits include double glazing (fitted after 2002), very low local crime, no flood risk and excellent mobile signal; London rail links and the coast are reachable in around 25–30 minutes respectively.
Notable running and refurbishment points are straightforward: the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler, broadband speeds are average, and council tax is above average. While the building appears well maintained externally, the generous interior and grounds offer opportunity for updating and reconfiguration to suit modern family life. The sale is chain free, which supports a quicker purchase process.
Overall, this is a distinctive, versatile home for buyers who value period features, generous grounds and scope to personalise a substantial residence in a quiet rural setting.
