This Grade II listed five-bedroom detached house in central Halesworth combines generous Victorian/Georgian character with practical living spaces across three floors. The property is offered chain-free and ready to move into, with large reception rooms, a conservatory, and converted attic bedrooms that provide flexible family accommodation or potential for mixed residential/commercial use thanks to the former shop frontage.
The south-facing garden is substantial and private, with a shingle driveway accessed via double gates and room to park numerous vehicles. Outbuildings include a large workshop, summer house and multiple stores, supporting hobbyists, home business use or gardening projects. Three separate office/studio spaces offer good work-from-home options or creative studios.
Buyers should note the Grade II listing: any alterations will require listed-building consent and could complicate modernisation or extensions. There is an externally sealed door to the garden and the property’s commercial-origin layout (former shop/sitting room) may need adaptation for some buyers. The local area is classified as having economic challenges and an ageing population, which may affect long-term resale in certain buyer segments.
This home suits buyers seeking a character property with substantial indoor and outdoor space — families wanting room to grow, buyers looking for a home-with-workspace, or investors able to manage listed-status constraints. Practical services are in place (mains gas, water, electricity and drainage) but purchasers should commission their own surveys and checks on fittings and services.
