The accommodation is both flexible and well-proportioned, currently offering five bedrooms arranged over two floors. The heart of the home is the striking kitchen, which combines period charm with everyday practicality and acts as a welcoming space for both family life and entertaining.

Throughout the cottage, the blend of historic character and thoughtful improvement creates a home of real charm and individuality.

The Location Crossroads Cottage is situated on the edge of the village of Middleton, close to Saxmundham, within the heart of the Suffolk countryside. The area is well known for its attractive villages, open countryside and easy access to the Heritage Coast.
Nearby Saxmundham provides a good range of day-to-day amenities including supermarkets, independent shops and a mainline railway station with direct connections to Ipswich and London Liverpool Street. The renowned coastal town of Aldeburgh, along with the Suffolk Heritage Coast, is within easy reach, offering beaches, restaurants, cultural attractions and scenic walks.
