About this property

PropertyApproached via the private driveway, the cottage reveals itself beyond a collection of mature trees and established planting, with a wonderfully light entrance porch providing an inviting introduction. In a manner entirely befitting its Suffolk setting, the current owners tend to enter through the rear of the property, where the heart of the home is immediately revealed in the form of the superb kitchen and dining room.From the front porch, the accommodation flows into the generous snug/study, a wonderfully bright and versatile room centred around a fireplace with woodburning stove.
