2 bed end terrace house for sale

The Street, Melton IP12

We are pleased to bring to the market this stunning two double bedroom end-of-terrace home, located within the sought-after Old Schoolyard development in the heart of Melton, just a short distance from the riverside town of Woodbridge and the River Deben.

The Old Schoolyard is a thoughtfully designed development, now approaching five years old, comprising the conversion of former school buildings into two beautiful 3- and 5-bedroom homes, along with the construction of five contemporary 2- and 3-bedroom houses, each benefitting from private gardens and parking. Set well back from the road in the centre of Melton, this peaceful setting is complemented by the convenience of nearby amenities and excellent access to the surrounding area.

The homes were designed in a striking contemporary style, offering a modern contrast to the surrounding Victorian buildings. Finished in mellow red brickwork with vertical timber cladding and sleek standing seam zinc-style roofs, they feature impressive energy-efficient windows and doors, and each is fitted with a heat recovery system to enhance sustainability and comfort.

This particular property is entered via a welcoming front door which opens into a spacious sitting room with a front-facing window and a useful storage cupboard beneath the stairs. There is also a downstairs cloakroom with a WC and hand basin, adding to the practicality of the layout. To the rear, the home opens into a stylish and well-appointed open-plan kitchen, dining, and seating area.

The kitchen features a range of contemporary units finished with quartz worktops and a breakfast bar, and comes fully equipped with integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, dishwasher, induction hob with hood, and a built-in double oven. A window from the kitchen offers a pleasant outlook over the rear garden, while a side door leads conveniently out to the garden itself.

The west-facing rear garden enjoys a good degree of privacy, is not overlooked, and is mainly laid to lawn with a generous patio area ideal for outdoor dining, along with a garden shed providing useful storage.

The first floor offers two generous double bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from a built-in wardrobe and its own en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom includes a fitted storage cupboard with a rail and shelf, which could be considered a built-in wardrobe. Off the landing is a main bathroom fitted with a modern suite including a low-level WC, vanity unit with sink, and a bath with shower over. There is also an airing cupboard offering practical storage.

Externally, there is private parking for two vehicles located to the side of the property, adding further convenience to this well-presented and energy-efficient home.

Melton is a popular village with a strong sense of community and excellent amenities including a well-supported primary school, large playing field with tennis courts and children's play area, the Coach and Horses pub/restaurant, a local shop, and various convenience stores. The nearby town of Woodbridge, just half a mile to the south-west, offers a vibrant mix of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, a marina, Riverside cinema, and excellent leisure facilities. The River Deben provides opportunities for watersports and scenic walks, while golf, rugby, tennis, and football clubs are also nearby.

Access links are excellent, with the A12 providing routes to Ipswich, Colchester, Chelmsford, and beyond. Woodbridge railway station connects to the Ipswich–Lowestoft line, with services into London Liverpool Street taking approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes from Ipswich. Greater Anglia has also announced direct services to London Liverpool Street.
