A vacation-inspired Victorian cottage much improved in recent years to create light-filled spaces, including a large mult-purpose basement conversion and a serene landscaped garden, located in the centre of historic Bury St. Edmunds.
This attractive three bedroom mid-19th century townhouse has undergone various enhancements by the current owner. Accommodation includes versatile living space which flows seamlessly from the Entrance Hall through the Sitting Room, homely Kitchen setup with its useful separate Utility Room through to the linkway that opens up to a garden oasis. The cellar conversion to a habitable space is a masterstoke and opens the space to a variety of uses whether a bedroom, study or media room. The introduction of an expansive first floor window in what was an artist’s studio creates an altogether pleasant panoramic. The three bedroom potential completes this easy town centre living.
A serene garden requires little maintenance and offers a good degree of privacy, and with the benefit of a delightful summerhouse. The fully enclosed outdoor amenity revolves around a mature ornamental bonzai tree with a large terrace for outdoor entertaining. Permit parking is available.
