An enchanting three storey period cottage with a studio and workshop. The property which may date from the 16th century occupies an ele- vated location on the edge of Peasenhall within convenient reach of the excellent village amenities. The property benefits from a large plot which is though to extend to approximately 0.75 acres (subject to survey and measurement). The gardens are extensively lawned with shingle pathways and seating areas. There are many ma- ture deciduous trees and there is a wood yard area with raised beds, wood stores and a large workshop and useful garden sheds. The property benefits from a large studio which is divided into two rooms and is attached to a garage with a spacious loft room above, accessible via an external staircase. The cottage retains many original features including oak plank floors, fireplaces and beams. The prop- erty is heated by oil-fired radiators and underfloor heating to the principle ground floor rooms. There are wood burning stoves in the sitting room and the kitchen/ dining room. The owners have added a large warm-roof conservatory/garden room which opens to the garden and overlooks adjacent farmland. There is a use- ful utility room and a cloakroom. The kitchen is arranged with charming rustic, hand crafted cupboards beneath bespoke zinc work tops. On the first floor there are two bedrooms which are served by a family bathroom and separate WC. The master bedroom occupies the whole of the second floor, under a beamed and vaulted ceiling. This property is unique and the owners have taken pains to pre- serve the character of the original house, maximising the potential for home work- ing with the studio and the workshop. The property is secluded and yet remains ac- cessible to local amenities, the market towns of Saxmundham and and the many attractions of the Suffolk Heritage Coast.
