A gate from the High Street leads to the gravelled parking area and separate building housing the garage and store room with additional stores and gardener’s WC opposite.

The garage/studio building has potential with the relevant consents for conversion to ancillary accommodation, or for a variety of other uses including a home office, home gym, art and design studio, etc.
Littlegarth occupies a central yet secluded position in Dedham High Street, a few steps from the historic village centre with its amenities. Walks into Constable country can start at the front door.
Often cited as one of the most beautiful villages in England, Dedham benefits from a range of local shops and dining pubs along with a fine parish church and a Church of England primary school rated as outstanding.
The village lies within Dedham Vale, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, made famous by the artist John Constable who was born in the neighbouring village of East Bergholt and painted among other local scenes the nearby Flatford Mill and Dedham Lock.
Dedham is well located for access to the A12 for onward travel to London. Manningtree railway station with its direct service to London Liverpool Street (fastest trains just under an hour) is a few minutes away via a scenic country lane; Colchester station is also nearby. Ipswich and Colchester, respectively 11 and 8 miles from Dedham, provide a range of further amenities as well as many highly regarded educational facilities including Ipswich School, the Royal Hospital School, Colchester Grammar School, Holmwood House, Orwell Park at Nacton, and Littlegarth at Nayland.
