Set on approximately a 1/3 acre plot (subject to survey) in the sought-after village of Willisham, this substantial four-double-bedroom detached chalet bungalow suits families seeking space and countryside living. The house offers versatile accommodation across two floors: a ground-floor double bedroom with direct garden access, a Jack-and-Jill shower room, an 18ft dual-aspect lounge with multi-fuel burner, a 24ft kitchen/breakfast room with integrated appliances, and a cosy garden room with a wood burner. Upstairs are three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The gardens are a genuine selling point — beautifully landscaped with defined entertaining areas and strong privacy from mature hedging. Practical benefits include ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles and a detached double garage. The property is freehold, has no flood risk, and lies within an affluent rural area approximately 10 miles north of Ipswich and 5 miles south of Stowmarket, with good local primary schools nearby.
Buyers should note some material factors: the home was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s, the double glazing install date is unknown, and heating is by an oil-fired boiler (not a community supply). Broadband and mobile signal are average for the area. The plot size and boundaries will need confirmation by survey; buyers seeking fully modernised services may want to allow a budget for updating heating or windows.
Overall, this is a well-presented, spacious family home offering generous indoor and outdoor living in a quiet hamlet setting. It will particularly appeal to buyers prioritising garden space, flexible accommodation and rural character, while those reliant on high-speed connectivity or wanting a move-in-without-any-works option should factor potential upgrades into their plans.
