Tucked away down a small road within the heart of the town centre, the property enjoys a pleasing position surrounded by attractive period properties within a short stroll of amenities and facilities. The historic market town of Eye is situated on the north Suffolk borders within the beautiful countryside surrounding the Waveney Valley, the town offers a diverse range of many day to day amenities and facilities whilst being 5 miles to south of Diss having a more extensive range of amenities/facilities and with the benefit of a mainline railway station with regular/direct services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

Description

This attractive period cottage sits within a charming row of similar properties on Wellington Road, making an excellent first impression. The property itself comprises a mid terraced 2 bedroom house displaying a mellow red brick façade, slate roof, with sealed UPVC windows, and heated by a modern gas-fired boiler. Over the past 16 years, the current owners have maintained and enhanced the property, and it is now presented beautifully throughout.

The accommodation is well laid out and thoughtfully arranged. The front-facing reception room is generously proportioned and centres around a stunning exposed red brick fireplace fitted with a double-back log burner. To the rear, the kitchen opens seamlessly into a second reception room, creating a flowing, sociable space that is ideal for entertaining. This area also benefits from views over and access to the mature rear garden. Beyond the kitchen, a utility room and shower room (externally accessed) complete the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor, the principal bedroom is particularly generous in size and retains a beautiful ornate Victorian fireplace set against an elegant rising chimney breast. The second bedroom and a recently refurbished family bathroom are located to the rear of the property.

Externally

The property benefits from off-road parking to the front. To the rear, you'll find a generously sized garden divided into two distinct areas. Directly behind the house is a paved patio alongside an outbuilding, which houses a utility room and shower room as previously mentioned. Beyond this sits a well-kept lawn with established planted borders. A beech hedge separates the second garden area, which is enclosed, secluded, and private. This space benefits from a timber summer house (6'32" x 6'23") and a studio/garden room (8'63" x 11'82"), both with power and light connected.
