A Grade II listed apartment above a shop in Woodbridge has come up for sale at a guide price of £550,000.
Part of a timber-framed building that is believed to date back to the 18th century, 72 Thoroughfare is for sale with Fine & Country.
Because of its age, it offers well-proportioned rooms with exceptionally high ceilings and a number of distinctive period features. The shop front, below, is thought to have been added a century later.
The apartment is accessed by a private entrance at street level, with a communal courtyard and a designated parking space out back.
In the entrance hall there is access to a cellar and a utility room/WC, before a set of carpeted stairs rise to the first and second floors.
On the first floor there is a sitting room with two sash windows at the front, plus an arched alcove and an ornate fireplace.
The adjacent garden/dining room also has a feature fireplace and oak floors, as well as a set of French doors that open out on to a first-floor terrace.
From here there is an elevated area of decking, which has lovely views overlooking the award-winning Elmhurst Park.
Back in the apartment, the modern fitted kitchen is equipped with an extensive range of built-in appliances, as well as quartz work surfaces and a central island, which offers a breakfast bar and lots of additional storage.
The main family bathroom is luxurious, with an attractive black and white colour scheme, free-standing bath and a double shower.
The second floor is accessed by a further carpeted staircase and leads on to a single bedroom and two good-sized doubles. Both doubles feature fitted or built-in wardrobes and one also has an en suite WC and vanity unit. There is also a box or loft-style room, suitable for storage.
Ground rent is charged at £75 a year and includes right of access and parking to the rear of the property.
