Crown Cottage is a compact, characterful period home tucked behind a leafy front garden in peaceful Knodishall. The sitting room centres on an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating an immediate sense of warmth and historic charm. A bright cottage-style kitchen with twin Velux windows and a handy pantry provides efficient day-to-day space. Upstairs offers a double bedroom, separate dressing room and a modern shower room. This layout suits someone looking to downsize or buy a charming seaside-linked retreat.
Outside, an enclosed courtyard garden provides a private, low-maintenance outdoor room with established borders and a brick-built shed suitable for storage or a small workshop. There is off-road parking directly to the front. The property is offered freehold and chain free, making it a straightforward purchase for a second home, pied-à-terre, or holiday-let investment close to the Suffolk Heritage Coast.
Practical considerations: the cottage uses electric heating, which may influence running costs compared with gas or mains alternatives. The house occupies a small plot and is one bedroom only, so it will suit buyers seeking manageable space rather than a larger family home. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the village offers basic amenities and easy access to nearby coastal towns and rail links.
Overall, this is a rare small period cottage in an affluent, low-crime village setting. It will particularly appeal to downsizers and buyers seeking a characterful, low-maintenance home near the coast, or investors wanting a compact holiday-let with good connectivity to Aldeburgh and Snape.
