With double glazed replacement windows the accommodation comprises a lounge with redbrick inglenook fireplace, good size kitchen/dining room, modern conservatory, bathroom, two interconnecting first floor bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, attractive rear garden of good size.

DIRECTIONS:
From the new Tesco roundabout close to Haverhill's town centre proceed out in a southerly direction as signposted towards Sturmer and Colchester, almost immediately after leaving the town you will come to a roundabout with the A1017 Haverhill bypass continue straight and you will shortly enter the village, continue past the Red Lion public house on the left hand side and the property can be found just a short distance on the right.

This popular north Essex village set within undulating countryside has its own church, village hall, garden nursery and public house with a good reputation for food. For more comprehensive facilities the expanding market town of Haverhill is just over a mile distance where amenities include a range of high street shops with several multiples represented plus a twice weekly market, a leisure centre with adjoining public swimming pool, a multi screen cinema complex, doctor's surgeries and an 18 hole golf course. Other surrounding towns include Saffron Walden approximately 12 miles, Halstead at approximately 15 miles and the small picturesque town of Clare approximately 5 miles.

This character cottage provides a rare opportunity to acquire a true character village home at this realistic price. Whilst retaining features such as an inglenook fireplace with exposed red brick work which continues up through to the first floor and exposed timbers, the property has been enhanced by an addition to the rear providing a good size kitchen/dining room, the installation of double glazed windows to most room and a rear conservatory addition. A further feature of the property is the most attractive rear garden which is well enclosed and of good size.
