Quayside, Woodbridge, Suffolk, IP12 1BH

A charming detached two-bedroom home, The Old Stables enjoys an attractive upside-down arrangement designed to make the most of its wonderful outlook across the River Deben and the countryside beyond. Offered with no onward chain, this distinctive property combines character, practical storage, and a bright first-floor living space with direct access to a balcony.

The property would benefit from some updating, offering buyers an excellent opportunity to put their own stamp on a characterful home with superb potential.

The entrance is through a partially glazed wooden front door into the hallway, where the ground-floor sleeping accommodation is arranged. Useful storage includes a built-in coat cupboard to the right, a further recess to the left, and an under-stairs cupboard housing the hot water tank with shelving.

The family bathroom is partially tiled and fitted with a bath with shower over and glass screen, wash hand basin, WC, heated towel rail, and electric fan heater, with a rear-facing window. A separate WC adds further convenience.

Bedroom one is the larger of the two and sits to the front of the property, with sash windows to the front and side aspects. A built-in cupboard provides hanging space, with an additional cupboard above giving access to the RCD unit.
Bedroom two also overlooks the front aspect through a sash window and benefits from a generous built-in wardrobe with shelving and double hanging space.

Stairs rise to the first-floor open-plan living and kitchen area, a bright and welcoming room with a front-facing sash window, two rear skylights, and double-glazed patio doors opening onto a wrought-iron balcony. From here, there are far-reaching views over the River Deben and surrounding countryside. The living area features a log burner with a wooden mantel and wall lighting, creating an inviting focal point. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, stainless-steel sink and drainer, space for a cooker with extractor hood above, and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher. Pantry shelving provides additional storage, and there is access to the attic from the kitchen.

Outside
The property is approached via a small gate, opening into a generous courtyard garden positioned to the front and side of the home. This attractive outdoor space offers excellent potential for seating, relaxation and container planting, creating a welcoming area to enjoy throughout the warmer months. A large timber-framed shed provides useful additional storage.

It should be noted that the two neighbouring properties to the rear have a right of access along the side of the property to reach their homes. There is also a small area immediately to the front which belongs to the neighbouring property.
