A more recently restored grade II listed town house conveniently situated in the heart of Bury St Edmunds.

Understood to date back to the 18th century with lime rendered elevations beneath a plain tiled roof-line, 11 Whiting Street is a real "town centre gem" and was the subject of a major conversion and comprehensively restored in 2008/2009 for the current owners by Whitworth Co-Partnership and Bream Builders, successfully resulting in a charming home of considerable character retaining many original features complementing the beautifully presented accommodation which currently in brief comprises; entrance door opening to Sitting/Dining Room: with large sash window to front aspect, exposed ceiling timber, door to cellar and stairs, original glass panelled door and side panels to Kitchen: with an ample range of units providing plenty of drawer and cupboard space beneath preparation surfaces and complemented by built-in oven, hob and extractor. There are tiled flooring, exposed beams, window to side and French doors open to the rear courtyard garden. Door from sitting room to Cellar: a useful space with the water cylinder supplying the fire sprinkler system.

On the first floor is a landing with stairs continuing to second floor with fitted book shelving and access to a useful curtained storage area. Bedroom one: a charming bedroom with original fireplace with wooden surround and sash window to front. Bathroom: re-fitted with a modern suite comprising bath, WC and vanity wash basin. There is plenty of cupboard space and of particular note are the wonderful roof top views to the Cathedral tower beyond.

On the second floor is a further generous bedroom with eaves storage cupboards under both roof slopes and a Velux window giving stunning views across the town.

Outside - To the rear is a delightful York stone paved courtyard garden complemented by well-stocked flower borders and raised beds with useful store and rear side gate.

Location - Whiting Street is situated in the heart of the town and a within a stones' throw of excellent facilities on offer. Bury St Edmunds is a picturesque, thriving market town which brings together the old and the new. The town benefits from a great collection of venues for eating, drinking, shopping, and relaxing, making it a great place to live, work, visit and study. The market town, with its impressive produce market every Wednesday and Saturday, is nestled in the heart of Suffolk. It is known for the Abbey Gardens and the ruins of the Abbey of St Edmund. Bury is a very popular destination for locals and tourists to the area. Visit the old side of the town to see the Cathedral in all its glory, the medieval quarter of the town and the Abbey Gardens and the Abbey Ruins themselves, or browse the newer side of the town to discover its large assortment of shops, restaurants and entertainment centres.

Services And Agents Notes - All mains services are connected. Council tax band B. Two level intruder alarm and fire control sprinkler system fitted. Fire extinguishers provided.
Agents notes: The neighbouring 12 Whiting Street enjoys a right of way across the rear of the courtyard garden although we understand rarely used.

On street parking permits are available and off street rental carpark directly behind the house, although quite a waiting list.
Grade II Listed.
Amended floorplan pending (in need of minor alterations).
