Summary - POUND FARM COTTAGE BOXFORD ROAD MILDEN IPSWICH IP7 7AN
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Chain-free three-bedroom cottage with extensive gardens and restoration potential.
Grade II Listed thatched cottage with heavy timber frame character
Pound Farm Cottage is a quintessential Grade II Listed thatched cottage set in a tucked-away hamlet near Milden, offered chain free. The house retains strong period character — exposed heavy timber framing, exposed beams and sash windows — and occupies just over 0.40 acre of mature, flowering gardens with a pond, fruit trees, workshop and parking for a couple of cars.
The accommodation extends over two floors to approximately 2,440 sq ft and includes multiple reception rooms: sitting room with wood burner, dining room with garden views, snug, garden room, kitchen/breakfast, utility/WC, Minstrel’s gallery and three bedrooms with two bathrooms. The large plot and separate outbuildings offer gardening and hobby potential, and the setting provides quiet countryside living with excellent mobile signal and low local crime.
Buyers should note this is a Listed building and will present restrictions and likely additional cost and complexity for repairs or alterations. The property requires renovation and updating, including thatch and general maintenance, and has low internal ceiling heights in many rooms. Broadband speeds are reported slow and council tax is Band G, which may affect running costs.
This cottage will suit a buyer seeking character and generous outdoor space who is prepared to undertake sensitive refurbishment rather than a move-in-ready home. Its hamlet location offers countryside tranquillity while Lavenham, Sudbury and Ipswich are within reasonable driving distance for amenities and rail links.
