A deceptively spacious Victorian end-of-terrace cottage in the heart of Eye, offering three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a sheltered courtyard garden. The property’s extended depth and attached two-storey barn create a larger feel than the street frontage suggests and provide flexible space for a studio, workshop or potential annexe. Architect plans for an annex scheme are available, giving a clear route to adding separate accommodation or income potential, subject to consents.
Inside, original character remains with exposed timbers, a traditional fireplace and period brick frontage, combined with practical updates such as a refitted kitchen and gas radiators installed in 2025. The staggered layout sets the main reception rooms back from the pavement, creating a surprising sense of calm and privacy despite the central town location. Broadband speeds are fast and local amenities, schools and countryside footpaths are all within walking distance.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the property is timber framed with no known built-in insulation (assumed), there are lower ceiling heights in parts of the house, and the plot provides only a small courtyard rather than a larger garden. There is no driveway or private front garden and access is via a gated side path. Overall this is a characterful, versatile home suited to a family or buyer seeking a village property with scope to add value through the barn/annexe conversion.
