Compact, characterful semi with garden, garage and clear extension potential..
Chain-free two-bedroom (originally three) ideal for improvement
A compact, chain-free semi-detached home with real scope for improvement and upside. Originally a three-bedroom house, the current two-bedroom layout still offers a cosy sitting room, separate dining room and an upgraded kitchen with integrated appliances plus a walk-in pantry. The property benefits from gas central heating, modern double-glazed tilt-and-turn windows and a private west-facing rear garden with workshop/study and parking for several cars including a sectional garage.
This home suits buyers who want to add value: finish the updating, reconfigure back to three bedrooms or extend (subject to planning). The plot is generous for the area, with a flat upper front lawn and potential to create a separate access from Valley Road (STP). Practical features include a ground-floor shower room and an upstairs bathroom with a freestanding slipper bath.
Buyers should note the property is small at about 468 sq ft and described as needing renovation — some works and modernization remain to bring the house fully up to contemporary standards. Broadband speeds are slow locally and the reported crime level is above average. Despite these points, the location is convenient: a short walk to shops, 10 minutes to the coast or Saxmundham, and nearby schools include Leiston Primary and Alde Valley Academy.
This is a straightforward opportunity for first-time buyers seeking a manageable project, landlords targeting rental demand, or buyers wanting to create a personalised home close to amenities and the coast. Being freehold and chain-free makes a quicker move possible for the right buyer.
