Castleton Grange by Persimmon Homes - Suffolk

Castleton Grange is situated on the northern edge of Eye, a jewel of a town in Suffolk with no shortage of historic sights and everyday amenities. Within a 10-minute walk of the development you'll find the main road through the town, lined with a range of shops and food outlets including a butchers, bakery, local Co-Op and pharmacy. As well as your day to day necessities in regards to shopping, the town benefits from a café, hardware shop, chocolaterie and an arts centre. Attractive period buildings are at every turn, including the striking Victorian brick and flint Town Hall. Continuing down past the shops you'll reach the magnificent ruins of Eye Castle, around which the town was built and which is thought to date back to the 11th century.

On a practical note, Hartismere Hospital is just a five-minute walk from the development, and 10 minutes away the town of Diss hosts several large supermarkets and train station.

There is much to explore in the surrounding area, too. For a wider selection of shops and attractions, as well as national transport links, Bury St Edmunds, Ipswich and Norwich are all within an hour's drive. All three are attractive destinations with more than enough shops to balance out the rural location of Eye. Meanwhile, a 45-minute drive east will take you to the beautiful Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, not far from the popular seaside town of Southwold.

With an idyllic local community and the region's best offerings within easy reach, Castleton Grange is appealing to a range of buyers, from a first-time buyer to a growing family.
