Description

Potters Estate Agents are pleased to present Milford Cottage, a charming two-bedroom mews dwelling nestled in the heart of Woodbridge. Steeped in history, this home forms part of a quartet of cottages expertly converted from a 17th-century structure in 1973. While preserving its original allure, the cottage has been thoughtfully updated to cater to modern comforts.

Upon entering, the eye is drawn to the staircase, while a corridor leads to the inviting ground floor living space. Here, an inglenook fireplace takes centre stage, complete with an electric imitation wood burning stove. Adjacent to this focal point lies the well-appointed galley kitchen, boasting fitted appliances including an electric hob with oven, slim dishwasher, fridge, and washing machine. A convenient under stairs cupboard and a back door opening onto the communal courtyard enhance the practicality of this area.

Ascending to the first floor, accessed via an archway leading towards the rear of the cottages, reveals two generously sized bedrooms - one double and one twin - both adorned with fitted wardrobes. Adding character halfway up the stairs is an original fireplace. The family bathroom, featuring a bath with shower, WC, and hand basin, along with an airing cupboard on the landing, completes this level.

Externally, Milford Cottage boasts accessibility from both the front pavement and rear access leading directly into the kitchen. The communal courtyard, accessed through an archway from the main road, accommodates a row of four garages, one dedicated to each cottage. Equipped with lighting, power supply, and an up-and-over door, the garage offers practical storage solutions.
