3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Newbourn Road, Bucklesham, Suffolk IP10

Sat on a ridge with unspoilt views down to the River Deben and Ramsholt Arms from the rear and overlooking Great Grove to the front, ‘Oak Cottage’ is a semi-detached and extended three-bedroom cottage, taking its name from the mature oak tree in its garden. Formerly one half of a 19th century farm cottage and still surrounded by gently undulating open fields, woodland and hedgerows, criss-crossed with peaceful footpaths, the property is located between the desirable villages of Newbourn and Bucklesham, and yet is just a few minutes’ drive to the A12 commuter trunk road. Occupying a good-sized plot with ample scope to extend/develop (subject to planning permission), the cottage also benefits from a detached garage and a large driveway providing off-road parking, and has been extended over recent years to incorporate a large triple-aspect sunroom.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, ground floor cloakroom, dining room which opens to the rear garden and through to a dual aspect lounge, kitchen, triple aspect sunroom, first floor landing, three bedrooms, and family bathroom.

Agent’s note:
The heating is via calor gas and the cottage has a septic tank and its own private water supply.
