3 bed 1 bath Detached
Characterful former pub with large grounds and strong renovation potential.
Approximately 0.7 acre plot with private, uninterrupted countryside views
Formerly the village pub and more recently a charming tearoom, this detached three-bedroom house sits on about 0.7 acres in a prominent rural position with uninterrupted countryside views. The property is unusually large at almost 2,954 sq ft, with flexible living space including two kitchens, a utility and a boiler room — useful for extended family layouts or a mixed residential/commercial setup. Several outbuildings, two garages and a separate studio add useful storage, hobby or income potential.
The house retains period character — exposed beams, low ceilings in parts and a country cottage exterior — which will appeal to buyers wanting characterful living. Practical positives include multiple WCs (four in total), generous downstairs accommodation for entertaining, fast broadband for working from home and generally low local crime and council tax. Local amenities in Bungay and Beccles are within easy reach, and several nearby Ofsted-rated Good primary and secondary schools suit families.
Buyers should note material considerations: the energy rating is G and the house will benefit from energy and likely general modernisation works; there is only one full bathroom serving three bedrooms; ceilings are low in the principal living room; and the location is remote, with average mobile signal. The property is on a full residential title and freehold, but its size and former commercial use mean prospective purchasers should budget for conversion/renovation costs and inspections where required.
Overall this is a rare, characterful rural property with substantial square footage and outbuildings, ideal for families seeking space or investors looking for conversion potential. Its combination of privacy, land and flexible accommodation offers a strong foundation for a comfortable family home or a project to add value if you are prepared to invest in modernisation.
