This Victorian end terrace cottage has an unrivalled situation overlooking the mill stream on the edge of Sudbury's extensive meadows with great scope for renovation, extension and possible development within the grounds subject to planning consents.

Offered with no onward chain is this end terrace Victorian cottage is quietly situated at the end of Garden Place, a private lane accessed from Cross Street. The cottage is situated on the edge of Sudbury's conservation area but the most remarkable feature is that it is surrounded to the north and west by the mill stream and with views directly across Sudbury's town meadows. An unrivalled location. The property is thought to have been built in about 1835 and has been lived in by the same owner since the 1950's. The property itself is in need of full renovation although it has seen the installation of double glazed windows and the installation of gas central heating but the remainder of the property needs complete updating.

A front door leads into a small reception lobby with staircase to the first floor and a door leads into the living room with open fireplace. A doorway leads through to the dining room with access to an under stairs cupboard and a doorway leading through to the galley style kitchen. Out of the dining room a door leads into the glazed conservatory which has direct access to the garden and access to a cloakroom. Stairs lead up to the first floor where there are two bedrooms, one with an old shower cubicle installed and a bathroom.

The property has its old traditional front garden leading from garden place to the property and a gate a the end of garden place which leads into a substantial area of garden which backs onto the mill stream on two sides and is enclosed to the south by a high brick wall with a large 18' by 9' timber and asbestos garage. This level area of ground would make a fantastic garden for an extended cottage adjoining that which exists at present or could be sub-divided to create a small plot for an independent property if required, subject to planning consent being granted.

Outside
The property is accessed through a pedestrian gate from Garden Place and with a vehicular access leading into the remainder of the grounds which contain a garage, this area is mainly laid to grass with mature Cherry tree and enclosed at the rear by a low wall with land and steps leading down towards the mill stream to an area of ground which is owned by the property. The extensive grounds give this property a great scope for extending the existing cottage and creating a really good sized town centre garden with stunning open meadow views or the creation of a small self contained single storey or chalet style property as on the adjoining site subject to the necessary planning consents and approval. The property lies within the Sudbury conservation area which means the trees on the site are covered by a blanket tree preservation order.
