Summary - 12 CHURCH HILL MONKS ELEIGH IPSWICH IP7 7JQ
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Sympathetic renovation with garden and adaptable outbuildings near village amenities.
Grade II listed cottage with period features and exposed beams
Laurel Cottage is a sympathetically updated Grade II listed terraced cottage set on Church Hill, overlooking Monks Eleigh’s village green. The current owners refreshed the interior since 2017 while retaining exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and other period character. The kitchen/dining room benefits from a vaulted ceiling and integrated appliances; underfloor heating is installed in that space and electric radiators provide heating elsewhere.
The cottage offers two double bedrooms, a bathroom, study and several reception rooms across approximately 1,126 sq ft, giving comfortable space for a couple or small family. The secluded rear garden is well planted, has paved terraces, lawn, sheds, a greenhouse and an outbuilding that could be adapted into a garden room.
Practical points are straightforward: freehold tenure, no flood risk and low local crime. The property is in a popular rural village with a community shop/post office, pub and nearby farm shops; schools rated Good are within easy reach. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and there is no mention of dedicated off-street parking.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing means repairs, alterations and certain improvements will need listed-building consents and may be restrictive and costly. Heating is electric with underfloor heating only to the kitchen/dining room; buyers should factor running costs and any desired upgrades into their plans.
