Summary - Bridewell Lane, Botesdale IP22 1DS
3 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow
Central village location with large garden and conversion potential.
0.25-acre plot — rare for a bungalow in the village
Set in the heart of sought-after Botesdale, this detached bungalow sits on a rare 0.25-acre plot and offers a private, secluded garden ideal for family life and outdoor hobbies. The single-storey layout is straightforward and versatile: a generous front reception with bay window and original fireplace, two good-sized bedrooms plus a dining room that can work as a third bedroom, and a kitchen with adjoining utility/boot room. A spacious entrance hall could accommodate a staircase if you wish to convert the loft and add more living space.
Externally there is strong practical value: a workshop with power and lighting, useful outbuildings, and two single garages accessed by a shared driveway. The large level garden and mature planting provide scope for landscaping, play space or vegetable beds. The bungalow's central village position means shops, pubs, a school and a health centre are all within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler and currently holds an EPC rating of E; running costs and future replacement of heating equipment are likely considerations. The accommodation dates from the 1960s and, while well-proportioned, will suit purchasers wanting to modernise or reconfigure to contemporary tastes. There is only one bathroom, which may limit larger households until adapted.
Offered freehold with mains drainage and very low local crime, this property will particularly suit families seeking a convenient village base with substantial outdoor space, or buyers wanting a bungalow with clear potential to extend upwards and add value.
