Hadleigh, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP7

An exciting opportunity to reconfigure this former commercial property into a 2-bedroom bungalow located in the heart of Hadleigh.

7 Duke Street started life as the Hadleigh Surgery then became the Red Cross building but has most recently been used as a domestic annexe. It now has planning consent for a formal change of use to residential, to provide modern, open-plan single storey living, with the additional and rare benefit of off-street parking for 2/3 cars, all conveniently located in the heart of Hadleigh.

The planning consent (Babergh DC/23/03625) is for a change of use to form a single dwelling, and offers the purchaser a blank canvas to create their own modern open plan 2-bedroom 940 sq ft property. The vendors have drawn up a potential scheme which, with only minor internal reconfiguration, and subject to further consents, could provide an entrance hall leading into an open plan living/dining room with adjacent kitchen/utility/cloak room, and to the rear two generous double bedrooms with an en-suite to the principal bedroom and a further bathroom for bedroom 2. Plans can be provided upon request.

OUTSIDE

Outside there is side access leading to a paved courtyard garden, while to the front there is parking for 2/3 cars. The High Street is close by, and the River Brett and Holbecks Park are only a short distance away.
