[email protected] The House This impressive house, which is Grade Two Star listed, dates back to 1420 and was originally built as a Tudor 'Hall House'. It was added to roughly one hundred years later to create a property with 2604 square feet of living space. There are three impressive reception rooms commencing with a centrally located dining hall, that has some genuinely impressive ceiling beams and studwork plus a fireplace with a substantial oak surround. The sitting room looks onto the street and the delightful formal lounge beyond also enjoys an outlook into the courtyard. Other ground floor accommodation includes a kitchen that opens into a breakfast room (these could be knockedthrough to create one space if needed) and a WC. The first floor can be accessed by three staircases (one bespoke) and includes five bedrooms leading from a delightful landing with an exposed oak floor. The master bedroom’s vaulted ceiling houses the Crown Post that features in the property's “star” listing. Two of the three remaining bedrooms are large doubles and there are two family bathrooms, a seperate shower room, and en-suite to the master. We understand that the property has been continuously maintained and as our photographs show the windows, the rendering and the roofs appear to be in sound condition (subject to survey). The house has secondary glazing throughout. For internal photographs please enquire through Bloomfield Grey. The Grounds The grounds include an entrance courtyard with a number of well-maintained beds and a private rear courtyard that makes for a secure play space for young children. The largest area of garden measures around 125 feet and faces northwest. This includes a large area of lawn and two good-sized sheds that provide a storage substitute for a garage. The exterior at the front of the house is heavily pargetted, displaying a beautiful and unique floral pattern which the sellers say is quite an attraction for tourists to the town. Buyers should note that our clients park off road on the semi-pedestrianised street to the front and we understand that, except on rare occasions such the annual village event, parking close to the property is straightforward and always without cost. Location Nethergate Street is a notable residential road which includes some of Suffolk’s most impressive homes, including this property. The centre of the town is only a short walk from the house where buyers will find a Co-op supermarket, a number of pubs and restaurants, a bank, two doctors, an opticians, a chemists, a post office and a butchers.
