The kitchen itself benefits from a range of wall, base and drawer units, including 1½ bowl sink unit with mixer taps and splashback tiling.

The Bakery
The commercial part of the property comprises a shop, store and rear bakery, with two individual cloakrooms. Until recently, the premise was let to Palmers Bakery of Haughley but is now vacant, and would suit a number of potential Class E/commercial uses.
