Bakery House
Bakery House comprises a unique mixed use property offering a substantial residential dwelling with adjoining shop and bakery. The property which was originally thatched, was almost completely rebuilt in the 1970s following a fire, with the commercial element offering superb potential for conversion to residential subject to necessary planning.
From the main entrance there is a staircase rising to first floor, as well as doorway leading into the sitting room, within which there is an impressive exposed brick inglenook fireplace, with bressummer bema over, plus a good level of natural light provided by two windows to front, as well as glazed doors which open out into the dining room, which benefits from a further set of glazed doors opening out into a partially covered courtyard area, plus further window to rear and door to kitchen. The kitchen itself benefits from a range of wall, base and drawer units, including 1½ bowl sink unit with mixer taps and splashback tiling. Other features of note include double oven, plus hob and extractor hood, as well as integral fridge and plumbing for dishwasher. From here there is a doorway leading out to the utility room which also has a stainless steel sink unit, as well as plumbing for washing machine, Potterton oil fired boiler, window to rear, plus full height glazed window and door leading out to the partially covered courtyard area.
At first floor level there is a cupboard housing hot water tank, as well as five bedrooms, all of which are of good proportions with most benefitting from built in storage alongside a family bathroom comprising panel bath, with mixer taps, vanity wash handbasin, concealed low flush cistern, tiled cubicle, heated towel rail, plus half tiled walls and window to rear.
Access to the bakery from the house is via an interconnecting door.
The Bakery
The commercial part of the property comprises a shop, store and rear bakery, with two individual cloakrooms. Until recently, the premise was let to Palmers Bakery of Haughley but is now vacant, and would suit a number of potential Class E/commercial uses. In the alternative, there may be potential to convert this commercial space to residential accommodation, but planning permission or approval via Permitted Development Rights will be required.
