Set on Queen Street in the sought-after village of Stradbroke, this Grade II listed thatched cottage combines traditional charm with practical living. The ground floor offers a spacious open-plan kitchen and living area with exposed beams, plus a separate dining room ideal for family meals or entertaining. Two generous double bedrooms upstairs are bright and peaceful.
Outside, the property benefits from off-road parking and a generous rear garden laid mainly to lawn with mature borders and raised vegetable beds. A neatly landscaped front garden with shaped hedging and a central stone path enhances kerb appeal and the cottage’s picturesque character.
Important practical points are clear: the house is listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate repairs. Thatched-roof upkeep and specialist insurance are ongoing considerations, and the property is heated by an oil-fired boiler. The cottage is sold chain free, offering a straightforward purchase for buyers who value character and village living.
This home will suit buyers seeking a characterful village residence — families, downsizers or professionals wanting countryside life with local amenities. Stradbroke offers strong community facilities, good primary and secondary schooling, local shops and leisure options, plus reasonable access to larger towns and rail links for wider commuting needs.
