Description
Bakery House comprises a unique mixed-use property offering a substantial residential dwelling with adjoining shop and bakery. The property was almost completely rebuilt in the 1970’s following a fire and was originally thatched.
Bakery House
On the ground floor is a spacious sitting room, with adjoining dining room and breakfast kitchen. To the rear of the house is a utility room and wc. On the first floor are five bedrooms, most with built in storage, alongside a family bathroom.
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 premises was let to Palmers Bakery of Haughley but is now vacant, and would suit a number of potential Class E/commercial uses.

Adjoining the double garage is a further range of outbuildings, with a covered walkway providing access to the main private rear garden. At the bottom of the garden is an additional attached garage which is accessed via the Old Bury Road.
