Five bedrooms and five bathrooms across flexible single-storey and galleried first floor
Set on roughly 0.5 acres in the Suffolk village of Hollesley, this extensively extended chalet bungalow offers flexible family living across single-storey principal accommodation with a galleried first floor. Five reception rooms and five bathrooms give genuine multi-generational or holiday-let potential, while the 28’ reception hall and 26’ vaulted sitting room create light, sociable living space framed by countryside views front and rear. Underfloor heating and an air-source heat pump provide modern, efficient heating.
The oak-framed, three-bay cart lodge adds valuable ancillary space: covered parking for three cars on the ground floor and a self-contained first-floor studio currently trading as a holiday let. That unit has produced lettings income for the current owners and could alternatively serve as guest or home‑office accommodation. Outside, mature planting, large raised decking, sauna, summerhouse, workshop, greenhouse and generous lawned areas deliver extensive outdoor entertaining and storage options.
Practical points to note: the property sits in a rural, ageing neighbourhood so local amenities are limited to village facilities and a small supermarket; the nearest substantial town (Woodbridge) is about a 15-minute drive. The local primary school includes one rated as ‘requires improvement’, which may be relevant for families with young children. Council tax is band D and the holiday-let income is currently dependent on external bookings.
This is a substantial, well-specified rural home for buyers seeking space, privacy and ancillary income potential. It suits families needing adaptable accommodation, buyers wanting a home plus rental income stream, or those relocating from towns for a countryside lifestyle while retaining modern heating and fast broadband.
