Grade II listed period cottage with exposed beams and character features
A charming Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage in the heart of Bungay, this two-bedroom home blends period character with practical modern comforts. The property offers about 763 sq ft of accommodation over three floors, featuring vaulted beamed ceilings in the main bedroom, a bright dual-aspect 16' sitting and dining room with a working cast-iron stove, and a well-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances.
Practical updates include secondary glazing, preventative damp-proofing injections carried out in 2019, a utility room with undercounter space, and underfloor heating in the family bathroom. Outside there is an enclosed front courtyard and a rear garden for private outdoor space, with adjacent off-street parking available (annual reservation approximately £350).
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed, which will restrict some alterations and may add cost and administrative requirements to renovations or repairs. The site is in a high flooding-risk area, which could affect insurance and future resilience measures. The plot and garden are small and some rooms have lower ceilings typical of older cottages.
This home suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking a characterful town-centre base with modern conveniences already in place. Viewings are recommended for anyone who values historic detail and central Bungay living, while being comfortable working within the limitations of listed status and flood-risk management.
