Occupying an enviable position alongside the historic St Lawrence's Church in the highly regarded village of Great Waldingfield, Walnut Tree Cottage is a distinctive part-thatched detached home offering over 3,570 sq ft of versatile accommodation, together with an impressive range of outbuildings and mature gardens. Believed to date from the 16th century, and extended in the 1980's, this charming Grade II listed cottage is a fine example of period architecture and has been included within prints via the artist Clive Madgwick who is one of Britain's most popular and commercially successful artists.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and has a series of generous reception rooms, which includes an impressive dual-aspect sitting room, centred around a wood-burning stove set within a characterful inglenook fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Off here is the beautifully appointed kitchen and separate utility room. There is also a superb open-plan living and dining room, which has a wonderful vaulted ceiling and an attractive exposed brick feature wall with a wood-burning stove. The property also benefits from two generous ground-floor double bedrooms. One bedroom enjoys the benefit of an en suite bathroom, whilst the second is served by a shower room. On the first floor are two further bedrooms - a double and a small double - both enjoying attractive outlooks over the surrounding grounds, together with a family bathroom serving this level.

Walnut Tree Cottage is approached via a generous gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking for numerous vehicles. Mature gardens of approximately half an acre surround the cottage, with established trees, hedging, a pond, and attractive planting creating a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity. From within the grounds there are delightful views towards the church and across the surrounding Suffolk countryside.

Within the gardens there is a substantial detached barn extending to approximately 1,300 sq ft., with water and power supplied. The barn incorporates extensive garaging, a dedicated workshop and a well-presented studio/annexe room. The building offers excellent scope for a variety of uses including home working, creative pursuits, hobbies or ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. A further detached garden studio, also with water and power, provides an additional private workspace, whilst a charming summer house with decking offers the perfect place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Space for parking a motorhome is provided with an electric hook up point.
