Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk

An individual detached house requiring modernisation, situated on the edge of the town in 0.2-acre. Offered with no onward chain.

Situated on the fringes of the town centre, 38 Newmarket Road is an individual character house, built in 1934 of traditional construction with rendered elevations under a clay pan-tiled roofline. The property has been under the same family ownership since it was built and offered to the market for the first time in over 90 years.

The property retains many notable authentic features to include picture rails, original fireplaces and doors, together with generous proportions and a large degree of natural light throughout and now provides a wonderful opportunity for incoming owners to revive and modernise what is already a comfortable and attractive home.

The dining room enjoys a double aspect, with original Crittall doors to the conservatory, which is a comfortable size, with views and access to the garden.

The kitchen is fitted with traditional base and eye level units with stainless steel sink unit with drainer, pantry and access to a rear hall and cloakroom.

On the first floor is a good-sized landing with further storage cupboards, with three well-proportioned double bedrooms, with original picture rails. From bedroom 3 is a dressing room, whilst all bedrooms are served by a bathroom with separate WC.
