House For Sale £750,000
Superb village house in a sought after location.
Description
A much loved family home, Acorns is an attractive and spacious detached house, within about 0.4 of an acre.
The red-brick house with a pantile roof is set back from the road with lawn to the front, and an attached double garage to the side.
Internally, the accommodation flows remarkably well and comprises bright, well-proportioned rooms. The front door opens on to a useful porch, which in turn leads to an entrance hall.
Off the entrance hall are the principal reception rooms – a sitting room, snug, and dining room – and a large cloakroom.
The elegantly proportioned, double aspect sitting room has a wood burning stove, window to the front, and bi-folding doors leading to the terrace and rear garden.
The snug - a more informal reception room - also has bi-folding doors out to the garden, and leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room, equipped with an AEG double oven, Neff hob, double sink, storage cupboards and work tops.
A partially glazed door leads out to the garden, while another door leads to the double garage. Completing the ground floor is the dining room, which our clients have also used as a home office and play room.
Subject to necessary consents, there is excellent potential to extend.
The first floor consists of four generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom has wonderful views over the garden, and an en suite shower room.
To the rear of the house is the terrace, ideal for al fresco dining, and an attractive, fully fenced, garden with an herbaceous border, established trees and a summer house. A bridge leads to a further area of lawn.
The drive offers ample parking for cars, caravan and a boat, with space for a double cart lodge, subject to necessary consents.
Location
Acorns occupies a superb location, in the sought-after village of Westerfield, to the north of Ipswich.
Westerfield is a well-supplied village, with an originally Norman church, and two public houses: The Swan Inn, part of the popular Deben Inns group, and the Railway Inn.
Westerfield railway station trains to the Suffolk coast and to London via Ipswich from 68 minutes.
Ipswich (3 miles) is the county town of Suffolk and provides a wide selection of independent and high street shops; numerous restaurants including The Mariners, set on a 19th century Belgian gunboat; and a variety of theatres, galleries, and museums. A mainline railway station offers direct trains to London Liverpool Street from 68 minutes.
Historic market towns Woodbridge (7 miles) and Framlingham (15 miles) offer an incredible range of independent shops, delicatessens, cafés, restaurants and public houses. Framlingham Castle is an especially iconic local landmark, from where Mary I marched on London.
The stunning Suffolk coast comprises delightful seaside towns and pretty villages. Aldeburgh (23 miles), the popular coastal town closely associated with Benjamin Britten, is famed for its fish and chips and Maggi Hambling 'Scallop’ sculpture. The neighbouring village of Thorpeness has a charming boating lake and country club. Orford (18 miles) has an enchanting 12th century castle and is home to the award winning Pump Street Bakery.
Local sporting facilities are fantastic: there are myriad gyms and swimming pools in the vicinity; the Ipswich Sports Club has eleven tennis courts and also offers squash, racquetball and hockey. Superb sailing is available on the River Deben, River Orwell and along the Suffolk coast. There are rugby clubs in Ipswich and Woodbridge, and highly regarded golf clubs including Ipswich, Woodbridge and Aldeburgh.
Education provisions are excellent in both the state and independent sectors, including Northgate High School, Ipswich School, and Woodbridge School.
