Set within an established farming hamlet near Ipswich, this single-storey, two-bedroom bungalow offers a compact, characterful retreat on a very large plot. The terrace cottage sits within part of an original farmstead and benefits from a barn on the same holding that already has planning permission for development — a clear value driver for buyers wanting extra space or an income stream.
The cottage retains rustic period features and a mature country garden, making it attractive for downsizers, owner-occupiers seeking quiet rural life, or a holiday-let operator. Accommodation is small (approximately 510 sq ft) and arranged in a traditional layout; the single-storey plan is convenient but limits expansion without using the barn planning opportunity.
Practical points: broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal, and the property shows signs consistent with an older building (moss-covered roof and potential historic damp areas). These facts mean buyers should factor in maintenance and possible refurbishment costs. No flood risk and low local crime support rural peace of mind.
This freehold cottage is offered at a price reflecting its size and development potential. It will suit those prioritising countryside lifestyle and scope for sensible investment, rather than buyers seeking modern, high-tech connectivity or large internal living space.
