Summary - 4 DOVE LANE EYE IP23 7BA
4 bed 1 bath Link Detached House
Turn-key four-bedroom home moments from Eye town centre.
Newly refurbished throughout, roof and services replaced
Dove Cottage is a newly refurbished period link-detached home offering four bedrooms and two reception rooms in the heart of Eye. The current owners completed substantial works — reroofing, raised rear roof line, new heating, windows, wiring, plumbing, kitchen and bathroom — creating a largely turn-key house ready for family occupation. The flexible layout includes a versatile ground-floor pantry/store and a welcoming kitchen with French doors opening to a sheltered courtyard.
The property retains period character alongside modern comforts: exposed timber framing, a roll-top bath in the first-floor bathroom, and attractive red brick boundary walls to the courtyard. Its central location on a quiet lane means shops, cafés and local services are within easy walking distance, while mainline rail connections are available nearby at Diss for longer journeys.
Practical matters to note: the house is a small-plot period property (built before 1900) with timber-frame walls where insulation is assumed absent and could benefit from upgrading. There is a single family bathroom for four bedrooms and limited external garden space, so buyers seeking large outdoor areas or multiple bathrooms should consider these constraints. Broadband and mobile signal are average locally.
Overall, this cottage will suit a family seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation with character in a compact town-centre setting, or buyers looking for a comfortable primary residence with low-maintenance outdoor space and scope to further personalise storage and insulation over time.
