- Own front and rear gardens; rear garden overgrown
- Offered with no onward chain

Located in a popular Hadleigh turning and offered with no onward chain, this ground-floor two-bedroom flat is a clear renovation opportunity for a family or first-time buyer. The property benefits from its own front and rear gardens, generous reception with a bay window, and a long lease in excess of 140 years — giving practical security for future plans.
The home sits within the Hadleigh Infant/Junior and King John school catchments and is a short walk from Hadleigh Town Centre, Country Park and Hadleigh Castle — useful for daily life and outdoor family time. Gas central heating is provided by an Ideal combination boiler and broadband and mobile signals are good in the area.
Internally the flat requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic updates, kitchen and bathroom refurbishment, and general redecoration will be needed to bring it up to contemporary standards. There is potential to improve the outside space and, subject to local permissions, create off-street parking by dropping the kerb.
Practical positives include a long lease (c.148 years remaining), no reported service charge or ground rent, and low council tax. Material drawbacks are the current need for comprehensive updating and an overgrown rear garden that will require landscaping and maintenance. Viewings are recommended for buyers who can envisage a tailored refurbishment project.
