Part of our Signature collection, set on a plot of 0.4 of an acre is this individual detached cottage that is in a beautiful rural position and is predominantly surrounded by open fields and farm land, yet is located just 2.5 miles from the A12/A14 and 4 miles from Ipswich railway station.

Set in a rural position on a plot of around 0.4 of an acre and predominantly surrounded by open fields and farmland is this delightful three double bedroom cottage, which is set on the fringes of the popular village of Copdock/Washbrook offering excellent access to the A12/A14.

The cottage, with original parts dating from the 1800s, has been more recently adapted and extended to meet the requirements of modern living. This includes a spacious sitting room with wood burner, two further reception rooms and a useful outbuilding and workshop that could be utilised further if required.

From the entrance hall there is access into the spacious sitting room which enjoys a triple aspect outlook, stairs to the first floor, exposed ceiling beams and an inset wood burner with brick surround. There is a door to the kitchen, which does require a degree of modernised, is well equipped with a range of base units, wall cupboards, work tops and drawers. There is an integrated 4-ring hob, electric oven and an extractor hood. To the rear of the kitchen is a breakfast area with a further range of base units, wall cupboards, worktops and has a dual aspect outlook overlooking the rear garden. An inner lobby provides access to two further reception rooms. There is a family room which has an inglenook fireplace with inset wood burner, exposed ceiling beams and a storage recess area. Adjacent to this is a dining room which has a tiled floor with underfloor heating and exposed ceiling beams. Accessed from both these rooms is an inner lobby with additional staircase to the first floor landing.

The main bedroom, which can be accessed from either landing, is of particularly generous proportions with a dual aspect outlook offering countryside views to both the front and rear. Adjacent to this is an ensuite shower room which is currently incomplete, this room has been designed in such a way where it could be easily separated and divided into two to create a fourth bedroom whilst still retaining access to the en-suite and one of the landings. Bedroom two is a generous size double room with a window to the front and bedroom three is also a good size double room has a window to the front. The modernised shower room comprises a double shower, basin, WC and also has underfloor heating.

The property is situated on the corner of Pigeons Lane and Spring Road on a plot approaching 0.4 of an acre. To the front there is an extensive driveway, parking and turning area for a number of vehicles which is laid to gravel. This leads to a large detached workshop which has double doors to the front and currently utilised as a home gym/workshop but has potential for further development such as an annexe, subject to the relevant consent. On the roof of the workshop there are solar panels that help with the running costs of the property and provides an additional income.

The formal gardens are located to the rear of the cottage and are predominantly laid to lawn with an extensive range of mature trees.
