This detached two-bedroom chalet sits on an enviable corner plot close to Needham Market’s historic High Street, offered freehold and with no onward chain. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a ground-floor sitting room and dining room, a garden room with triple-aspect windows, plus a utility and single garage — useful for storage or conversion. The property benefits from extensive off-road parking and a generous plot that could allow extensions subject to planning consent.
The house currently requires modernisation throughout. Fittings and finishes are dated — particularly the kitchen and bathroom — so buyers should budget for refurbishment works to bring the home up to contemporary standards. That said, the substantial floor area, clear plot lines and confident 1970s construction present straightforward scope to reconfigure or extend (subject to permissions) and add value.
Practical perks include mains services, gas central heating, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and low local crime. The location is pocket-friendly for transport links into Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds, a short walk from shops, services and a convenience store across the road. Council Tax sits in band C, and the property is offered vacant so purchasers can move quicker once works are arranged.
This will suit a buyer looking for a project with scope to personalise — first-time buyers wanting long-term potential or small families seeking a roomy home near quality local amenities. Be realistic about renovation costs and planning timescales; a measured investment will unlock the property’s strongest selling points: plot, parking and proximity to the town centre.
