Summary - 24 STONEY LANE BARROW BURY ST. EDMUNDS IP29 5DD
4 bed 2 bath House
Character-filled four-bedroom cottage with garden studio and village location.
Retains period features: exposed brick, fireplaces, floorboards
A charming semi-detached cottage in the highly regarded village of Barrow, offering flexible family accommodation and lots of character. The house retains many period features — exposed brick, fireplaces, floorboards — while providing practical spaces including two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility/cloakroom and a versatile studio/cabin in the garden. Off-road parking and a well-planted cottage garden add real everyday convenience and outdoor appeal.
The property currently requires a degree of updating and modernisation; buyers should expect cosmetic and some systems work to personalise the home. The EPC is rated D and heating is electric via an air-source heat pump with underfloor systems, which offers improvement potential but may require verification and upgrades to meet higher efficiency standards. The house is freehold and of average overall size, with nine main rooms across multiple storeys.
This cottage will suit families seeking village life close to good primary and secondary schools, or buyers looking for a character home with scope to add value. The garden studio is useful as a home office, hobby room or occasional guest space. Broadband speeds are up to 80 Mbps and mobile signal is excellent, supporting remote working and family connectivity.
Material considerations are straightforward and important: the property needs renovation and modernisation, and the EPC and electric heating setup should be reviewed by prospective buyers. Viewings will best serve those prepared to invest time and budget to update a period home while keeping its character.
