House For Sale £600,000
The property
Groton Wood Cottage requires some modernisation in places but is a well-proportioned home with a great deal of road presence for its size. Given its excellent location and half acre plot, we believe it would benefit significantly from a rear extension (subject to planning).
As the site plan shows the property has a sizeable road frontage (circa 215 feet) and includes an area of garden which has ample room for the construction of a detached family house in a linier formation with its neighbours. Any successful planning application and separation in this respect would leave the existing cottage with plenty of garden and privacy.
The accommodation totals 1387 square feet and includes an entrance hall opening into a dining room with an open fire, a separate sitting room with French doors to the garden and a log burner, a kitchen/breakfast room, a WC and a utility area. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor which are accessed via a large landing.
The grounds total 0.48 acres and are surrounded by a mix of wrought iron fencing, brick walls and hedges. There is plenty of parking and turning space and the driveway leads to a detached double cart lodge and storeroom. There are two sheds and a private south facing patio that can be accessed from the kitchen and the sitting room.
Location
As its name suggests, Groton Wood Cottage is located opposite Groton Wood, in the village of Kersey Heath.
The historic village of Kersey is approximately two miles from the house whilst the larger village of Boxford is around half a mile further away; both villages have thriving public houses and Boxford has a shop and a post office. The market town of Hadleigh is just five miles by road where all necessary day-to-day services can be found.
Groton Wood is a twenty-acre ancient woodland which is owned by Suffolk Wildlife Trust and which is open to the public all year around.
