Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
Part of our Signature collection, this attractive modern Georgian-style house is quietly situated on the outskirts of the large and remarkable village of Lavenham, set in grounds of about 2 acres.

Greensleeves is set well back from the road, approached over a shingle driveway with electric gates leading to a good size parking and turning area in front of the house.

The property is approached through an imposing porticoed paneled front entrance door which leads into a lovely spacious hallway with striking staircase running to the top of the house. The main reception rooms open off this hallway, with the sitting room and dining room on one side, with doors leading onto the spacious south facing orangery. Facing west at the rear is the study, and on the north side of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room which has a solid oak fitted Neptune kitchen with granite worksurfaces and an island unit. The kitchen has a fitted induction range style cooker, Belfast sink and a complete range of fitted appliances, as well as a ceramic tiled floor. This adjoins the good size rear entrance hall with a cloakroom and fitted utility room.

On the first floor are the two main ensuite bedrooms, both of which have large sash windows overlooking the garden, together with bedroom three. The striking staircase leads to the top floor of the house where there are two further bedrooms and large well equipped family bathroom fitted with shower cubicle and bath.

Outside
The grounds are a real feature of the property, extending in total to about 2 acres. Sheltered from the road and laid mainly to grass with a fine mature oak tree to the front of the house, the grounds rise up to the adjoining field boundary at the rear.

On the sheltered south side of the house is a wide paved and enclosed terrace with a variety of attractive roses and shrubs. Located at the rear, with a westerly aspect, are raised beds containing flowers, vegetables and soft fruits. A gate leads through to the parking area at the side of the house which provides access to the double car port garage, garden store and studio building.

The property is approached from the road via a shingle driveway which leads in through electric gates to a wide parking and turning area in front of the house. The drive leads on past the side of the property to the outbuildings, which comprise a cart lodge and large garden machinery store with a studio above, accessed from an external staircase.


Location

The property is located on the outskirts of the fine medieval village of Lavenham, which in recent years has developed as an extremely sought after area with a breathtaking selection of fine medieval properties, magnificent 15th Century parish church and stunning Guildhall in the market square.

Lavenham probably has one of the finest collections of medieval buildings in the country and this is backed up by a really good collection of local village facilities including two supermarkets, butchers, bakery, chemist, fine selection of pubs, restaurants, coffee shops etc. The village has a large village hall and doctors surgery. The property is well connected to the local footpath network and has lovely views out across surrounding river valley and undulating countryside. The property lies about 7 miles to the north of the thriving market town of Sudbury with its good shopping facilities and branch line railway station. 7 miles to the south is the fine Georgian market town of Bury St. Edmunds with bus services linking to these two centers. The village still retains a primary school and there is a good private prep school in nearby Brettenham.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
