Summary - 28 THORNEY GREEN ROAD STOWUPLAND STOWMARKET IP14 4AB
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Charming two-bedroom cottage ideal for a character-focused buyer.
Detached 17th‑century thatched cottage with period features
This detached 17th‑century thatched cottage offers genuine period charm with exposed beams, brickwork and a feature fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The open-plan living and dining space feels welcoming and suits relaxed, countryside living. The country-style kitchen with wooden worktops and the ground-floor shower room add practicality to the characterful layout.
Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms with sloping ceilings and exposed timbers — cosy, characterful sleeping spaces rather than large modern rooms. The plot includes an enclosed front garden, a medium-sized rear garden and a private driveway to the side, useful for off-street parking in a rural village setting.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed and thatched, so maintenance, repairs and any alterations are subject to listed‑building consents and specialist upkeep. The internal footprint is modest and ceiling heights are low in places, which may limit some layouts or furniture choices. The property is sold freehold and chain free, offering a straightforward purchase for buyers prepared for a listed cottage.
This home will suit someone seeking atmospheric, historic accommodation in a village setting — ideal for downsizers or buyers wanting a character cottage to maintain and personalise. It is less suitable for buyers needing large, modern rooms or those not prepared to manage listed‑building responsibilities and thatch maintenance.
