Description
Ivanhoe is well placed for all of the amenities the village has to offer, and also enjoys an impressive rear garden, that includes a swimming pool. Ivanhoe itself offers a very good amount of accommodation with an entrance hall, sitting room kitchen, dining room and playroom on the ground floor, together with three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. To the rear of Ivanhoe there are a good range of outbuildings including an office, stores, workshop and garage.
The gardens and rounds are delightful and include a good range of outbuildings and an outside swimming pool. There is also a stunning ‘hidden’ garden at the very rear which alone extends to nearly three quarters of an acres (0.14 hectares). The area containing the outbuildings and outdoor swimming pool is located within the settlement boundary for Grundisburgh and there may be potential to develop a new independent dwelling in that location, subject to the necessary consents.
Ivanhoe is attached to The Old Post Office, trading as The Grundisburgh Dog Deli, and a two bedroom apartment (The Old Post Office Flat). These are available separately and please refer to the selling agent for further information.

Beside the workshop outbuildings are two greenhouses and an area of garden that has been used as a vegetable patch in recent times. Beyond this is the outdoor swimming pool with concrete surround.

The garden is predominantly laid to grass for ease of maintenance, but interspersed with a number of maturing and established fruit trees, raised vegetable beds, borders containing a variety of specimen flowers and shrubs and a chicken run. It is an incredibly peaceful area away from the village street and backing onto neighbouring amenity land.
