A particularly well-proportioned Grade II listed house with high status features and church views, situated in the heart of a pretty Suffolk village.
This outstanding period house provides much improved and beautifully presented accommodation displaying a wealth of original features including a wonderful exposed timber frame with large beams and studwork, huge Inglenook fireplaces with wood-burning stoves, stunning wooden panelling in the main bedroom and traditional ledge and brace internal doors. More recent improvements include a smart new kitchen and en-suite bathroom to the stunning principal bedroom.
The spacious accommodation currently in brief comprises of a large heavily timbered dual aspect sitting room with huge Inglenook fireplace with contemporary wood burner. The kitchen has been re-designed and re-fitted with a smart new range of units providing plenty of drawer and cupboard space beneath preparation surfaces, complemented by built-in appliances and stable door to rear gardens.
The dining room is a fantastic reception for entertaining with large exposed beams and a further huge Inglenook fireplace with stove. Stairs lead to a large dry cellar with excellent ceiling height, providing a particularly versatile space ideal for a cinema room or study. A rear hall leads to a shower room completing the ground floor accommodation.
Stairs lead from the hall to the first floor landing. One of the best rooms is the stunning dual aspect principal bedroom retaining original wall panelling, views to the magnificent church and many fine exposed beams. Bedroom two, also enjoys church views and has a fitted airing cupboard. Both bedrooms have access to the newly re-fitted and upgraded Jack and Jill bathroom, completing the first floor accommodation.
Outside
To the front of the property is an area of off road vehicle parking. A side gate gives access to the west facing rear gardens which are mainly laid to lawn and has a patio area which is ideal for entertaining. The garden is enclosed by wooden fencing and enjoys church views.
Location
The property is located directly opposite the church in the heart of this pretty and thriving Suffolk village and within a stones throw of the local amenities including the historic church, playing field which hosts monthly farmers markets and very active village hall where you'll find the Hot Frog Bar, a place where the local community gathers at weekends. The nearby villages of Rickinghall and Botesdale provide a good range of everyday amenities including a doctor's surgery, dentist, two public houses, co-op and coffee shop. Walsham le Willows is approximately 2 miles away and provides a primary school, butchers, public houses as well as a family sports club. The market town of Diss is approximately 9 miles away and from here trains depart on the London-Norwich mainline. (Diss to London Liverpool Street Station Journey time approximately 90 minutes). Historic Bury St Edmunds is approximately 14 miles away with its cathedral, shopping, dining and is just a 22-minute drive theatre in the other direction. The Heritage Coast of Southwold and Walberswick is around a 45 minute drive and the Norfolk Broads a similar distance to the north.
