Set within a small, purpose-built retirement courtyard in Long Melford, this two-bedroom cottage offers low-maintenance village living with generous internal space. The layout includes a spacious sitting room, separate dining room, fully fitted kitchen and a cloakroom off the hallway, giving flexible living and dining options for everyday life and entertaining. Both bedrooms are doubles with fitted wardrobes and there is a family bathroom plus a second cloakroom with shower — useful for visitors or as a wet room option.
Owners share well-kept communal gardens and benefit from estate management that maintains buildings, grounds and communal services, reducing hands-on upkeep. Practical extras include a boarded loft for extra storage, a garage for private parking and very good broadband and mobile signal — helpful for staying connected, working from home or using telecare services. The peaceful courtyard setting sits an easy stroll from Long Melford’s shops, eateries and village green, and nearby country walks and local attractions add lifestyle appeal.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 138 years remaining and a high annual service charge (£9,850) covering communal maintenance and estate services; there is no ground rent. Council tax is moderate and the site has no flood risk. This home suits buyers seeking comfortable, low-maintenance retirement accommodation in a well-regarded village location, but be mindful of the ongoing service charge when budgeting.
