There are delightful wooded grounds and large sweeping lawns which are interspersed with specimen trees. A bridge leads over the river to the far bank which backs onto pasture land. To the far end of the property is a spring fed natural swimming pond with jetty. The woodland, which is planted with thousands of spring bulbs, has delightful pathways through the trees.

Mains electricity, water and drainage. Heating via a ground
source heat pump.
Agent Note

There is also a footpath from Mill Lane lane which leads past the
house towards the village and is predominantly hedged on either side.
Location
Watermill House is situated just outside the village of Kettleburgh, about 3 miles south of the market town of Framlingham, to the north of the sought after and appealing town of Woodbridge and in the particularly attractive and undulating countryside of the Deben Valley. The village is quiet and rural, surrounded by farmland and there is a church, village hall and public house. More extensive shopping and recreational facilities can be found in both Framlingham and Woodbridge, with the county town of Ipswich offering a wider range of services. Educationally, there are excellent schools in both sectors in Earl Soham, Brandeston, Framlingham and Woodbridge. There are regular train services to London Liverpool Street station from Ipswich, the journey time taking from 65 minutes.
