Approached via a gravel driveway, which splits to offer access to two separate garages – one integral and conveniently accessible from the main house, and the other detached, offering additional privacy and potential for a variety of uses.
Upon entering, the spacious and inviting entrance hall sets the tone for the rest of the property – beautifully presented with characterful features retained where possible. To one side, a generously proportioned kitchen/dining room originally the old forge, provides the perfect setting for family meals and has French doors which open to the beautifully landscaped garden. A door from the kitchen leads through to a utility room, which in turn gives access to the garage.
At the front of the home, a delightful L-shaped sitting room welcomes you, featuring a traditional fireplace with an inset wood burning stove. A door leads to the rear hallway, where you'll find a ground floor shower room as well as a door to a spacious conservatory that enjoys views of the garden.
Stairs rise from the hallway to the first floor, where a split-level landing provides access to four charming bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each room retains a characterful charm, perfectly complementing the spacious and functional living areas on the ground floor.
Outside, the gardens are beautifully presented, offering a serene and private outdoor space. Additionally, a brick outbuilding holds significant potential for a variety of uses, whether for storage, a workshop, or a possible studio.
Set in a popular village, the property is ideally located with excellent access to both Southwold and Beccles, with frequent buses through to Beccles, Halesworth, Saxmundham and Aldeburgh, making it perfect for those who enjoy both country living and access to the coast and nearby towns. The surrounding countryside offers an abundance of scenic walking routes, ideal for outdoor enthusiasts.
This is a truly special home, offering a blend of historical charm, functional living spaces, and a beautiful setting.
