Brundish Lodge - A Grade II Listed, largely Georgian property dating back to the 16th Century
Tenure: Freehold
Situation: Brundish Lodge is situated back from the B1116, the Dennington to Stradbroke Road, and is approached by a private drive leading through grass paddocks, providing a sweep to the front of the property. The gardens and grounds lie to the south and west of the house, with attractive fish ponds to the east and south, over which the property looks. The stabling and farm buildings are positioned to the rear and separate from the main house. The property is situated to local villages and towns, with shopping facilities at Framlingham and Woodbridge, some 5 and 17 miles away respectively. The county town of Ipswich lies some 25 miles to the south, with Norwich some 26 miles to the north. Both centres are readily accessible with their state and private education and retail and recreational facilities. The commuter can take advantage of direct Intercity train service links to London Liverpool Street Station, from either Ipswich, Stowmarket or Diss.
