Potters Estate Agents are delighted to present this charming Grade II Listed three-bedroom period cottage, occupying an enviable position just moments from Market Hill in the very heart of Woodbridge. Beautifully blending period character with everyday practicality, the property offers well-balanced accommodation, gas central heating and a private courtyard garden, all within easy walking distance of the town's excellent amenities.

Stepping inside, the property immediately showcases its wealth of original character, with exposed beams, traditional features and a welcoming atmosphere throughout. The entrance lobby leads into a thoughtfully refitted kitchen, featuring contemporary shaker-style cabinetry, solid wood worktops, an integrated washing machine, electric oven, ceramic hob and space for a freestanding fridge freezer. A useful utility and storage area houses the modern gas-fired combination boiler whilst providing additional worktop and cupboard space.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, each retaining the cottage's period charm with exposed timbers, dormer windows and character features. The principal bedroom enjoys an exposed brick chimney breast with an ornamental fireplace, while the remaining bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family living, guests or home working. A generous family bathroom completes the accommodation, fitted with both a panelled bath and separate shower enclosure, together with a wash hand basin and WC.

Externally, the property benefits from a private, low-maintenance courtyard garden incorporating a decked seating area, creating an ideal outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining.

Please note that the private driveway immediately to the right-hand side of the property provides access for neighbouring properties and must be kept clear at all times. The fireplace within the sitting room is a decorative feature only and is not operational.
