Grade II listed three bedroom detached home requiring modernisation, in a rural location set in one third of an acre (sts).
Offering an excellent renovation opportunity, this Grade II listed property features three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, two reception rooms, a large kitchen and a utility room. Set within approximately one third of an acre (sts), the property benefits from a generous garden to the front, additional space to the rear, and parking for several vehicles.
Wilby is a friendly, active village. It has a church, primary school and village hall hosting events such as pizza evenings and fundraisers. Nearby shops are in Laxfield (4.5 miles) and Stradbroke (1.8 miles). Stradbroke also offers a swim and fitness centre, doctor’s surgery, village shop, pubs, butchers, bakers and takeaway vans on various days.
Internal
The entrance door opens into the property with a deep recessed shelving area. To the right is a light and airy dual-aspect sitting room with exposed beams and an open working fireplace. To the left is the dual-aspect drawing room overlooking the front and rear, featuring an inglenook fireplace with a wood burner and a deep shelved storage cupboard.
A door leads to an inner lobby with stairs to the first floor and access to the dual-aspect kitchen/dining room. At the end of the lobby is a utility room with doors to both the front and rear gardens. The ground floor also includes a bathroom with bath and shower over, bidet, WC, wash hand basin, and a front-facing window.
Upstairs, a long beamed landing leads to three double bedrooms, all with exposed beams, including a dual-aspect main bedroom. There is also a family bathroom with bath, WC, wash hand basin, and a window overlooking the front.
Exterior
The property sits in approximately one third of an acre(sts), with most of the land located to the front. The driveway is shared at the entrance with Bullrush Barn before branching off into its own lane, providing parking for several vehicles.
The garden is mainly laid to lawn with well-established shrubs and plants. An oil tank is positioned to one side, and there is a cobbled patio area ideal for outdoor dining.
