Cherry Tree Cottage is a rare 1540s Grade II listed cottage set in a large plot in Hacheston, a peaceful hamlet a few miles from Framlingham. The house retains strong period character: exposed beams, feature fireplaces and original charm combined with practical updates such as a modern log burner, gas boiler and secondary glazing to some windows.
The accommodation is arranged over multiple floors and includes a generous kitchen with a dual gas AGA, a spacious sitting room, two first-floor bedrooms and a shower room. Outside there's off-street parking for 3–4 cars, a cartlodge with a powered studio/office above, and a large garden with decked seating, fruit trees, a wood store and a negotiable hot tub. The seller reports an Ethernet link between the cartlodge and the main house.
This property will suit buyers seeking character and space in a peaceful rural setting — families, home-workers or buyers looking for a countryside retreat. Important practical notes: the house is Grade II listed, so alterations will be restricted and may require specialist consent; the listed status may complicate modernisation and maintenance. There is no onward chain, freehold tenure and mains gas and drainage.
Viewers should note there is a single shower room serving two bedrooms and, while the house is described as extremely large overall (about 1,450 sqft), some areas (e.g. eaves/storage) are modest in headroom. Broadband and mobile signals are average in the area; nearby schools and low crime add local appeal.
