Description

"

Whittley Parish are pleased to present this charming detached cottage occupying a fantastic elevated position with wonderful views over Metfield Common. The cottage is believed to date back to the late 1700 s and is of solid masonry construction with rendered elevations and benefiting from oil fired central heating. The cottage boasts many characterful features such as exposed painted beams, exposed floorboards, Pamment tiled flooring and two staircases. As you step through the front door you are greeted by an entrance porch with a door that leads into one of two front aspect reception rooms. Currently used as a study, the room features an inglenook fireplace with wood burner set next to one of the two staircases that leads to the first floor. The other reception room boasts dual front and side aspect windows flooding the room with natural light and a second staircase leads to the first floor landing. In the middle of the ground floor is a hall which offers space for hanging coats and a door through to the utility room which has space for undercounter appliances, and leading onto a WC. At the rear of the cottage is a fabulous open plan kitchen dining room with walk in pantry and French doors giving views of the rear garden and countryside beyond.

Two staircases each give access to the first floor, with one leading to two of the double bedrooms and shower room and the other leading to the third double bedroom and family bathroom. All bedrooms are generous in size, have fitted wardrobes and benefit from lovely views out of the windows. Over the last five or so years the property has undergone some significant improvements and upgrades to include re roofing to the house and porch, replacement guttering, adding fascias, soffits and barge boards, maintenance to the chimney, insulation to the loft space, replacement oil tank, installation of a wood burner and new fencing and gates in the rear garden to make it fully enclosed.

Externally the property is set well back from the road with parking for several cars on a gravel driveway. There is a large workshop to the side of the cottage and gated access into the rear garden. The plot extends to approximately 0.25 acre and is mainly laid to lawn with an abundance of mature trees, shrubs and hedging. There are two sheds, the larger one being used as a workshop and having power and lighting connected, measuring 4.88m x 3.05m 16 0" x 10 0" . There is a large area of patio abutting the rear of the property ideal for outdoor entertaining. Beyond the gardens are the most wonderful views over the Common making this a perfect home for anyone wishing to enjoy the beautiful Suffolk countryside.

Metfield is a rural yet vibrant village boasting a well stocked community run shop open seven days a week and an active village hall hosting a number of events throughout the month. The property is positioned on the fringe of the village and overlooking the Common with access to some fantastic country walks. A wider array of day to day amenities such as supermarkets, doctor and dentist surgeries, take aways and independent shops are found in the towns of Harleston, Diss, Bungay and Halesworth which are located within short driving distance. The market town of Diss also benefits from a direct train line to London Liverpool Street.

AGENTS NOTE The property is subject to a right of way for the neighbouring cottage to carry out any maintenance to their property.
