This historic Grade II Listed building in the heart of Eye has adapted well to a single house of considerable size, having been a combination of house and shop for many years. The former shop front has most recently served as a professional catering kitchen with B2 Commercial Use.
9 Castle Street is a substantial town property with the added bonus of a gated driveway and parking to the rear, off Buckshorn Lane. Formerly a shop premises and house the current owners have in recent years turned the shop area into a working commercial catering kitchen with B2 Commercial Use granted in May 2018. The current arrangement of the remaining interior space provides two further rooms across the front of the property along with hallway. Beyond lies a sizeable kitchen with breakfast room area together forming a sociable 'day' space in addition to a further reception room at the very rear, with sliding patio doors leading out to the gardens. The first floor can be approached from a rear staircase to a winding landing serving the varied first floor rooms. From the street, double gates open to former carriage access dating back to the property's former life as a Coaching Inn. The neighbouring property has long rendered this function as unusable due to the build over the passage probably a hundred years or more ago. Now vehicular access is from Buckshorn Lane and Posting House Court where a further set of double gates lead to a driveway and parking area which in the heart of the town is a considerable rarity and asset. The property was Listed as being of Architectural & Historic Interest in 1971 and is considered to date back to the early 1500's before being converted in the 1800's to a house and two shops. The present owners have enjoyed the versatility of the property since 2015 allowing them to create ground floor living space for a dependant along with creating the catering kitchen. There is further scope for alteration and improvement.
