Summary
A scarcely available four double bedroom semi-detached cottage that was originally two cottages located near to the River Orwell and further benefiting from having delightful original features, a large kitchen/diner, cloakroom, study, lounge, garage, off road parking and a two story studio.
Description
Connells are pleased to offer this four bedroom semi-detached cottage which comprises of many original features, a large kitchen/diner, cloakroom, study and lounge on the ground floor, four double bedrooms (one en suite), and family bathroom on the first floor plus a two storied attached studio. Outside is a large garden, single garage, and wood store. There is a small front garden and driveway providing off road parking.
1-2 Bourne Cottages is part of what was a 16th century thatched timber-framed dwelling, II was divided and extended to form four cottages in the 19th century with the outside walls replaced with brick under a plain-tiled roof. Part of the original crown post roof and internal timber frame survives. The two cottages were converted into one dwelling in 1979 and 1993, exposing the Tudor features and retaining the Victorian decorative barge boards and diamond glazed windows to the front elevation. However, it is not Listed Building.
The property is ideally located for access to the A12/A14, Ipswich town centre, Suffolk food hall & access to Shotley Marina which offers a range of marine facilities and has local pubs & restaurants.
Ipswich has a cutting-edge theatre and arts scene, many schooling facilities, cosy Suffolk pubs, and a vibrant community of independent stores. Ipswich also has the benefit of being home to a mainline railway station that gives direct access into London Liverpool Street, Cambridge, Norwich and many more destinations.
