Lower Harlings, Shotley Gate, Suffolk IP9

Located in the sought-after village of Shotley Gate just a short walk from the estuary lies this larger than average and extended four-bedroom detached house. The family home occupies a good-sized plot with scope to extend/develop (subject to planning permission), requires some updating throughout, and comes with an off-road parking space in front of a tandem garage which has partially been converted creating a study/office, a generous landscaped front garden, secluded rear garden, and electric heating.

To the ground floor is an entrance hall, cloakroom, 20ft lounge, dining room, conservatory, kitchen, and study/office. The first-floor landing provides access to the generous master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, three further well-proportioned double bedrooms, and a family bathroom.

The peninsular village of Shotley Gate is very popular amongst the boating community and provides a wide range of local village amenities including doctor’s surgery, bus routes, public houses, marina, church, and fantastic scenic countryside walks. In the summer months a foot and cycle ferry service licensed to carry up to 12 passengers operates between Shotley Marina, Harwich and Felixstowe. Shotley peninsula is an awe-inspiring location between the River Orwell and the River Stour.
