Spacious four-bedroom cottage, annexe and large gardens beside open Suffolk countryside..
- Large detached period cottage with extensive later extensions
An impressive period cottage extended into a substantial four-bedroom home with a self-contained annexe, set in about one third of an acre of landscaped south-west facing gardens. The principal house retains character details — exposed timbers, inglenook fireplaces and sections of original wattle-and-daub — while also offering contemporary comforts including a high-spec kitchen, glazed garden room and underfloor heating in key areas.
The annexe provides flexible accommodation for guests, multi-generational living or long-term rental (historically let). Two separate electric supplies, an integrated garage, further timber-framed garaging/storage and abundant off-road parking add practical value for family life and hobbies. Grounds include productive vegetable beds, greenhouse and potting shed, with farmland views and easy access to local amenities such as Snape Maltings, the village pub and nearby coastline.
Buyers should note some material facts: both main cottage and annexe currently carry EPC ratings of E, the annexe uses night storage heating, and the property is served by a private septic drainage system. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal average — important if you work from home. Some potential for additional living space over the lower annexe garage exists but would require the usual planning consents.
Overall this is a sizeable, characterful family home in a peaceful rural setting with clear rental or annexe flexibility, significant garden amenity and convenient road links. It will suit buyers seeking generous living space and privacy who are comfortable with older-property considerations and modest modernisation to improve energy performance and connectivity.
