This very unique former blacksmiths cottage, with two bedrooms and a separate self-contained one bedroom annexe, is situated in the popular peninsular village of Shotley and is immaculately finished throughout. The current owner has extended the property and the cottage benefits from gated driveway providing off-road parking for two cars, bi-folding doors in the main cottage and annexe, courtyard style rear garden, and is being sold with no onward chain. As agents, we recommend the earliest possible internal viewing to fully appreciate the quality of the accommodation on offer which comprises entrance hall, stunning kitchen / dining room, cosy lounge with wood burner, separate study / home office, ground floor cloakroom, first floor landing, impressive double master bedroom with freestanding bath, one further double bedroom, and shower room.

The peninsular village of Shotley is very popular amongst the boating community and provides a wide range of local village amenities including bus routes, public houses and marina, and fantastic scenic countryside walks. In the summer months a foot and cycle ferry service licensed to carry up to 12 passengers operates between Shotley Marina, Harwich and Felixstowe. Shotley peninsula is an awe-inspiring location between the River Orwell and the River Stour. The neighbouring town of Ipswich offers a further range of amenities including shops, doctors, dental surgeries, hospital, theatre, parks, recreational facilities and train station providing direct links to London Liverpool Street Station.
