The property occupies a desirable village location with stunning views, easy access to the larger villages of Claydon and Bramford and fast access to the A14 and Ipswich. The semi rural hamlet of Little Blakenham is situated approximately mid way between the larger villages of Claydon and Bramford. Both of these villages offer a good range of every day shopping facilities. Claydon offers a range of shops, post office, public houses, primary and secondary schooling. The Suffolk county town of Ipswich is approximately three miles distant offering a much wider range of facilities including mainline railway link to London's Liverpool Street. The A14 trunk road offers access in an easterly direction to the A12, Ipswich and Felixstowe and in a westerly direction to Bury St Edmunds, Cambridge and on to the Midlands
