Offered for sale with no onward chain, this enchanting two-bedroom Grade II listed thatched cottage occupies an idyllic position within the peaceful hamlet of Assington Green. Surrounded by open countryside and enjoying far-reaching views across rolling Suffolk farmland, the property perfectly embodies the charm and heritage of a quintessential English country cottage, while sitting on a generous plot of approximately a quarter of an acre.
Stepping directly into the dining room, you are immediately welcomed into a warm and characterful space brimming with period features. Exposed timbers, traditional fireplaces and a wealth of original detailing create a cosy and inviting atmosphere, reflecting the cottage’s historic charm. The dining room flows naturally into the lounge, another beautifully proportioned reception room where French doors open onto the garden, allowing natural light to pour in and providing a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Beyond the lounge lies the kitchen, thoughtfully arranged in a classic country style and enjoying delightful views over the gardens — a picturesque setting for everyday cooking and entertaining.
Returning to the dining room, a door leads to a practical rear lobby and boot room with direct garden access, ideal for country living, along with a useful larder cupboard providing additional storage. Upstairs, the cottage continues to impress with two spacious double bedrooms, each full of charm and individuality, featuring character beams and lovely outlooks over the grounds and countryside. These are served by a family bathroom, completing the internal accommodation.
Externally, the setting is truly special. A traditional five-bar gate opens onto a driveway offering ample off-road parking. The front garden is predominantly laid to lawn and framed by established beds stocked with mature planting, enhancing the cottage’s picturesque façade. To the rear, the classic country garden unfolds with sweeping views across open farmland — an ever-changing rural backdrop that provides both privacy and tranquillity. A shed/workshop and greenhouse are included, while additional outbuildings currently owned by tenants will be removed, ensuring the grounds are presented with clarity for the next owner.
Located just five miles from the historic market town of Clare, the cottage benefits from both seclusion and convenience. Clare is widely regarded as one of Suffolk’s most attractive small towns, known for its wealth of period architecture and vibrant community atmosphere. At its heart lie the impressive remains of Clare Castle, set within beautiful parkland and offering scenic walking routes along the River Stour. The town’s independent shops, cafés and traditional pubs create a welcoming environment, while regular markets and community events add to its charm.
The surrounding area is rich in countryside walks and heritage attractions. The scenic Stour Valley Path provides miles of picturesque walking through quintessential Constable Country, while nearby villages offer historic churches, timber-framed houses and charming rural inns. For further exploration, the medieval town of Lavenham, famed for its colourful half-timbered buildings, and the cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds, with its abbey gardens, theatre and shopping facilities, are both within comfortable driving distance.
This delightful thatched cottage offers a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled rural retreat in an exceptional Suffolk setting. With its period charm, generous gardens, countryside views and proximity to Clare’s amenities, it presents an idyllic lifestyle opportunity in the heart of East Anglia.
