A delightful edge of village house with established gardens. About 1.125 acres
Occupying a superb edge of village position, Orchard Cottage is a delightful house which dates back to 1948 and was renovated and extended by the current owners in 1994. Orchard Cottage is an excellent family house that has only had three owners since it was first built. The house is located within a particularly sought after area of south Suffolk.
The property comprises wonderfully proportioned and light-filled accommodation, including, an entrance hall with cloakroom, a well-fitted kitchen with excellent comprehensive range of base and wall mounted units which opens through to the breakfast/dining area. There is a walk-in larder cupboard and also a useful study. Double doors lead into the full width sitting room which also has a patio door out to the garden. The first floor has a large landing with access to the insulated and boarded loft and also doors to: four bedrooms, two en-suite bathrooms and a walk in store cupboard.

There is a large block paved parking area to the front of the house and which fronts a double garage with electric roller doors.
The gardens are a particular feature and are south facing with a terrace running the elevation of the house with covered seating area which also has a retractable sun blind. This opens out into the delightful lawned garden with herbaceous beds. To one side is a heated Westminster above ground swimming pool (8m x 5m) with filter shed to the rear.
Beyond the garden, are further grounds (classified as agricultural land) which has a productive vegetable garden, asparagus beds and raspberry canes along with two poly tunnels. There are composting bins, a garden machinery shed, garden store shed and further garage/boat store. There is a further garden shed and at the very end are two solid entrance gates which open onto Vale Lane.
