Set within the historic village of Lavenham, this substantial four-bedroom detached home offers comfortable family living across approximately 1,742 sq ft. Ground-floor living is flexible, with a spacious living room and feature fireplace flowing into a bright sunroom, a separate dining room, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, utility and a dedicated study ideal for home working.
Upstairs the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en suite, with three further bedrooms and a family bathroom completing the sleeping accommodation. The property benefits from generous wraparound landscaped gardens, patio seating areas and a large gravel driveway leading to a detached double garage — useful for parking and storage.
Practical points to note: the house is a pre-1900 solid-brick construction with double glazing installed before 2002 and no assumed cavity insulation in the walls, so further insulation or upgrading may be desirable for energy efficiency. Flood risk is assessed as medium for the area and council tax is Band F, reflecting higher running costs. A stairlift is currently fitted and will be of interest to purchasers needing accessibility but may be removed.
This home will suit families seeking space, garden privacy and village life within easy walking distance of Lavenham’s shops, pubs and primary school. It also offers potential to update and personalise, with scope to improve energy performance and modernise bathrooms or kitchen to buyer taste.
