Set in a peaceful hamlet on the edge of Caistor St Edmunds, this five-bedroom detached house sits on a large, private plot and offers generous family accommodation across two storeys. The layout includes multiple reception rooms, a light-filled kitchen/diner and flexible bedrooms that can be adapted to family, home-office or hobby uses.
Practical features include an attached garage, ample off-road parking, solar panels and mains gas central heating to keep running costs lower. The property is freehold and offered chain-free, so a quick move is possible for buyers ready to progress.
The house was constructed in the mid-20th century and has been lived in and adapted since; double glazing was fitted after 2002 and a stairlift has been installed for accessibility. That said, the interior would benefit from updating throughout to match contemporary tastes and standards — buyers should budget for cosmetic and some modernization works. Broadband performance in the area is slow, which may affect heavy home-working needs.
This home will suit families seeking space, a peaceful village setting and scope to add value through refurbishment. It also appeals to buyers wanting a ready private plot and solar energy savings, while accepting the practical need for improvement and slightly higher-than-average council tax.
