Outside
Approaching the property from Wainford Road we find space to park a car on the shingled frontage. A step down leads us to the front door of the cottage whilst in true Suffolk style pedestrian access to the side of the house leads us to the rear where we enter the property via the main door leading to the kitchen and utility space. At the rear of the house an extensive shingled courtyard makes the most of the south westerly aspect and enjoys shade in the summer months from the neighbouring trees. French doors lead out from the dining room ideal for summer entertaining and family play. A fence divides this from the main garden which offers a fantastic space which is mainly laid to lawn. The garden wraps around the property and the attractive serpentine red brick wall follows the front boundary. A timber fence currently sides the river (for children's safety) but when removed or lowered provides stunning river views to the entire garden. A timber shed is in situ and attached to the side of the property we find a brick shed and log store.
