The village of Redgrave is located within the beautiful countryside on the north Suffolk borders being a quintessential English village, steeped in history and having a beautiful assortment of many period properties centred around a large village green and pond. The village still retains good amenities by way of having a public house, fine church, convenience store and being within the Hartismere school catchment area and its free bus service catchment. More facilities can be found within a mile or so to the south within the villages of Rickinghall and Botesdale including an excellent medical centre. The historic market town of Diss lies 7 miles to the east providing a more extensive and diverse range of facilities along with the benefit of a mainline railway station with regular/direct services to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

"The Hollies" is a beautifully presented grade II listed part-thatched house situated in the sought after village of Redgrave and occupying a fantastic plot of approximately 0.38 acre.  The original house dates back to the late 16th century being of timber frame construction under a part-thatched roof with later timber frame/clay lump and pan tiled roof extensions in the 17th and 19th centuries and most recently in 2016.   As you step through the front door you are greeted by an entrance hall with stairs to the first floor and doors leading into two of the three reception rooms. The snug has a fabulous tiled fireplace and door to study which is an ideal space for those working from home and the sitting room is a well proportioned room found within the original part of the house with exposed beams and fireplace with wood burner. Double doors open to the kitchen/diner which forms part of the 2016 extension.  This room benefits from underfloor heating and offers white gloss fitted kitchen with granite worktops and ample space for dining table and chairs. There is a large utility room to the rear of the property with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer, sink and door to rear courtyard. Additionally to the ground level is a useful wet room with underfloor heating.  Upstairs offers three light and airy double bedrooms and a Suffolk landing which is currently used as an office but has potential to be reconfigured to create a fourth bedroom if required. There is a shower room and bathroom to either side of the Suffolk landing.  The property boasts many charming period features with exposed timbers, solid wood internal doors and wooden casement windows with monkey tail handles. 

Externally the property is set well back from the road with ample driveway parking for several cars and double cart lodge measuring 6m x 5.4m with workshop measuring 3.7m x 1.86m. The rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees, hedges and shrubs which provide a good degree of privacy. Towards the end of the garden is a pond and beyond the garden are lovely views over fields. Particular notice is given to the timber built studio/hobby room which is insulated and has power and light. The studio has a cloakroom and has potential to be converted into an annexe subject to planning permission. Next to the studio is a fabulous covered terrace ideal for barbecue and outdoor entertaining and beyond this is the garden room/greenhouse with heating and a perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee taking in views of the garden.
