Tucked just a short walk from Bury St. Edmunds town centre, this upside-down duplex offers a bright first-floor living/dining room, stylish shaker kitchen and two double bedrooms with direct access to a private walled rear garden. The layout suits buyers seeking low-maintenance central living with rare private outdoor space and an allocated off-street parking space.
Practical benefits include a long lease (990 years) on a share-of-freehold tenure, no onward chain and a solid EPC around 70 (potential 77). The property is compact at about 639 sq ft, with electric storage heaters and modern double glazing, so it ticks boxes for economical running relative to older stock but will feel most comfortable for couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Buyers should note material considerations plainly: the property is in a location recorded with very high local crime levels, and heating is electric storage, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The footprint is modest and will suit those wanting central convenience over expansive rooms. Overall, it’s a well-presented, practical home with strong location benefits and clear ownership security for the next owner.
