A character home offering uninterrupted field views has come up for sale near Bungay for just under half a million pounds. 

The three-bed property in Ilketshall St Lawrence is for sale for £490,000 and comes complete with a one-bed annex - which selling agents Minors & Brady say could offer income potential. 

The property is set in peaceful countryside and well-secluded, with rustic yet tastefully finished living accommodation and plenty of space. Highlights include its tasteful yet neutral decor, featuring wood floors and exposed brick, as well as light and airy rooms and lovely views.

The main property is accessed through an entrance hall at the front. To the right, there is a cosy living room which features a window to the front and an exposed brick fireplace with a log burner, before leading into a good-sized study at the rear. 

On the opposite side of the hall is the dining room, which Minors & Brady describe as a “classy space” with another exposed brick fireplace as its main feature, two double-glazed windows to the front and an archway which leads into a charming farmhouse-style kitchen. 

This is well-fitted with a range of matching base units, work surfaces and wall-mounted shelves, as well as a butler-style sink and space for a double Rangemaster-style oven. While appliances are not included in the sale, there is plenty of space, including for a fridge/freezer and dishwasher.

The ground-floor accommodation is completed by a further family room, which has French doors leading outside, and a family bathroom which is located off the entrance hall and includes a free-standing bath and a separate shower. 

Upstairs, a carpeted landing leads on to a shower room and three good-sized bedrooms – including two with their own exposed brick fireplaces, which add extra charm and character. All three bedrooms enjoy field views. 

Also included within the sale is a one-bedroom annex, though it does need some work to realise its full potential. It’s styled much like the main house, with rustic wood flooring and exposed panelling and brick and is sold as seen.

The layout includes an entrance hall and shower room, as well as a good-sized kitchen/diner. The kitchen space is not yet fitted with appliances but does have a sink, cabinets and space for an oven, and the dining space is large enough that it could be divided up to create a bedroom. The space lends itself well to an Airbnb, subject to planning, or perhaps as living space for older relatives or teens. 

Outside, the property is approached by a shingle driveway, which provides plenty of off-road parking space, and a well-manicured garden, which wraps around to the rear. 

Also included is a patio, lawn and a large timber-built shed, and towards the end of the garden are flower beds well-stocked with fruit and vegetables. 

East Anglian Daily Times: The annex offers huge potential, with a shower room, fitted kitchen - without appliances - and a large dining space which could also be partitioned to create a bedroom.
