House For Sale £610,000
Freer Cottage originally dates to the 15th Century and forms the end wing of a former Hall House. It was altered and divided in the 17th Century. Naturally owed to eras of architecture this property has passed through, results in offering a wealth of character features throughout to include exposed timbers, fine fireplaces, and sash windows. The entrance lobby invites one into the accommodation Freer provides. To the front is a snug/downstairs bedroom with sash windows flooding this room with natural light. The central sitting room provides a break between the front/rear, accommodation, and a lovely place to sit and enjoy the ambience created by the brick fireplace and inset coal effect burning stove. To the rear of the property is an open plan Kitchen/dining/family room with outlooks over the private gardens, a traditionally kitchen with oak worktops, butler sink with ceramic hob and one-and-a-half oven and dishwasher. All of this is tied seamlessly together by the exposed brick and tile floor. Adjacent is a further utility room which also provides access out to the gardens.
Upstairs provides access to the landing space with natural light and Velux windows, two large double bedrooms and a generous single, with a family bathroom to serve this. On the second floor, offers a vaulted room displaying historic tie beams and could be used as a further bedroom/dressing room or home office.
Outside forms a further important feature with highly desired off street parking, with the most beautifully landscaped gardens to the rear, consisting of a shingled alfresco dining terrace, laid lawn with established raised beds and private walled gardens.
Long Melford is frequently voted amongst the top 20 most sought-after villages in England and Wales. There is an excellent range of shops, restaurants, pubs, doctors’ surgery, a primary school, hotels and two Tudor mansions - Kentwell Hall and Melford Hall – both of which are open to the public. The market town of Sudbury (2 miles) provides a rail link to London’s Liverpool Street via Marks Tey (about 80 minutes). Alternatively, there is a mainline service from Colchester with fastest trains taking about 48 minutes. The historic market town of Bury St Edmunds lies 10 miles to the north.
