Casa, Calder Road, Melton, Woodbridge, Suffolk

A handsome Georgian conversion with parkland views.

Fairway View forms part of a terrace of four impressive conversions of the former Georgian St Audry’s Hospital, situated in the heart of the popular Melton Park. With its handsome brick façade, high ceilings and tall sash windows, no. 3 offers light and well laid out accommodation with its impressive 25ft drawing/dining room.

The accommodation, which extends to some 1,610 sq ft includes an entrance hall with cloakroom with the aforementioned sitting/dining room to one side and the kitchen to the other. On the first floor, set off a spacious landing, are two double bedrooms and a good sized single, together with a bath/shower room and an en suite shower room. All rooms enjoy a south facing aspect with views across the mature grounds of Melton Park.

To the rear is a secluded and secure walled and paved courtyard, with a gateway leading to the double garage and parking area which lies beyond. To the front is a small area of lawned garden opening onto parkland beyond.

The property benefits from a mains gas-fired central heating system and is ready for a kitchen update and general redecoration.
