Set in just over a third of an acre, is this bright and characterful detached property arranged over two floors, with tranquil private gardens enjoying beautiful, far-reaching countryside views.

A bright conservatory not only provides an inviting entrance to the home but also offers a peaceful space in which to relax and enjoy the south-easterly aspect. This leads naturally into the reception hallway, with access to both a useful study and cloakroom and stairs rising to the first floor, whilst doors from the hall also lead through to the adjacent drawing and dining rooms. The drawing room is considerable in size and opens out onto the formal dining room, offering ideal space for entertaining guests. Double doors from the drawing room flow into the comfortable open-plan kitchen/family room, which features an attractive freestanding log burning stove and access onto the property's rear terrace and gardens; there is also a separate utility room, also with access to outside.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite benefits from an en suite shower room. There are three additional bedrooms with scenic views, one of which also has an en suite shower. A further family bathroom completes the accommodation.

The Old School House is situated approx. 10 miles north of Ipswich, in the rural village of Pettaugh. Nearby Stonham Barns is open 7 days a week and comprises a wide range of amenities and shops. The well-loved village of Debenham is under 3 miles away and also has a very good selection of independent shops, Co-op, leisure centre and highly-regarded high school.

The county town of Ipswich is a short drive away and offers an even more extensive range of shopping and recreational facilities, as well as several popular eateries and bars. A mainline station at Stowmarket provides easy links to London (Liverpool Street) in around 78 minutes and is situated under 9 miles away. Road connections are excellent; the A14 and A12 are within easy reach, and the A1120 to the east also offers links to the Suffolk Heritage Coast.

The property enjoys a generous plot; accessed by a shared entrance which then splits into its own large private gravelled driveway, offering ample parking for a number of vehicles. A double garage with store behind provides useful storage whilst a greenhouse sits alongside, in an area of level lawn with mature trees and planting. A paved terrace area to the side of the house offers an excellent space in which to dine al fresco and take in the picturesque countryside surroundings. The rear garden is carefully divided and punctuated with a range of hedges, shrubs and mature trees, providing privacy and dappled shade, whilst several flowerbeds offer areas of colour and interest.
