Double glazing (installed post-2002) and gas central heating make the house warm and efficient in daily use.
Bedrooms are well proportioned, with two doubles and a third bedroom that provides loft-room access for flexible storage or potential conversion. The mature west-facing garden and a large brick-built outbuilding extend practical outdoor space, and off-street parking for two vehicles adds convenience for commuters or families with more than one car. Total floor area is about 1,045 sq ft, suitable for average-sized family requirements.
Location is a strong selling point: within walking distance to Hadleigh High Street, a stone’s throw from John Burrows playground, and in the catchment for Hadleigh and The Deanes schools. Local amenities and fast broadband/ excellent mobile signal support home working and family life. There is no flood risk and council tax is in an affordable band C.
Buyers should note a single family bathroom and a loft that currently requires finishing if you need extra living space. The property’s solid brick walls were built 1930–1949 and are assumed uninsulated, so buyers may wish to budget for improved insulation works. Overall, this freehold home suits growing families seeking space, good schools and straightforward local commuting links.
