Summary - 36, Lambseth Street, EYE IP23 7AQ
4 bed 2 bath House
Spacious four-bedroom cottage with large garden and character features.
Secluded 0.53 acre plot set back from the road
Set back from the road on an exceptional 0.53 acre plot (sts), this detached period cottage blends genuine character with clear renovation potential. The house offers four bedrooms, an ensuite to the main bedroom, two bathrooms and three reception rooms including a drawing room with an open red brick fireplace and exposed timbers. A conservatory and kitchen/breakfast room open views to the mature lawned garden and terrace – ideal for family life and outdoor entertaining.
The layout suits families seeking space and character: separate sitting, drawing and dining rooms provide flexible living, while a utility, boot room and ground-floor WC add practical convenience. Off-street parking and a timber garage/workshop sit behind a shared private driveway. Local amenities in Eye are a short walk away, and Hartismere School (Outstanding) and nearby Diss rail links make the location practical as well as peaceful.
Important practical points: the house requires modernisation throughout and has restrictive head height in several rooms. Constructed with solid brick walls likely lacking cavity insulation, the property has an EPC rating of E and council tax in Band E (above average). Services are connected but not tested. The timber garage and workshop will need maintenance, and the driveway is shared with three neighbouring properties.
This home will particularly suit buyers looking for a sympathetic renovation project who value plot, privacy and traditional features. For someone prepared to invest in updating heating, insulation and finishes, the cottage offers substantial upside in living comfort and long-term value while preserving its historic charm.
