This attractive early 20th-century detached home on Finborough Road offers generous, characterful accommodation across an average-sized footprint. Two large reception rooms with high ceilings and big windows create flexible living and dining space; original features such as stripped wood floors, deep skirtings and a decorative tiled hallway add period charm. The kitchen has modern cabinetry and a breakfast island, plus a lean-to utility and ground-floor WC for daily convenience.
Practical family benefits include a large, level rear garden ideal for play and entertaining, a wide driveway for four to five cars, and full‑fibre broadband with excellent mobile signal — useful for home working and streaming. The property is well placed for families: short distance to Stowmarket station (direct services to London), several primary schools rated Good, local shops, green spaces and leisure facilities nearby.
Buyers should note the house has a single first-floor bathroom serving four bedrooms, which may be limiting for larger families. The solid brick walls date from c.1900–1929 and are assumed to have no cavity insulation — some thermal upgrades may be needed to improve energy efficiency. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and mains‑gas boiler and radiators provide central heating.
Overall this is a well-located, character-rich family home with scope for modest updating and improvement to heating and insulation. Its large garden and substantial driveway are standout practical advantages for buyers seeking space and good commuter links in Stowmarket.
