4 bed detached house for sale

Watering Road, Hoxne IP21

If you are looking for a period property with acreage, this fabulous Grade II Listed reed thatched cottage sits in a site of just over 3 Acres (1.242 Hectares). Surrounded by superb rolling farmland and with No Through lanes and a Bridlepath on the doorstep, the riding is excellent as is the access to the 'Yard' area and land.

Listed as being of Architectural and Historic Interest Grade II, this classic reed thatched property offers character timbered accommodation including a later addition at the rear. Of particular note is the land which is now post and rail fenced not only securing the ditched and tree/hedged boundaries but creating paddock grazing. Three Field Shelters have been adapted to provide stabling and these have retained their galvanised skids. The 'Yard' area is accessible without having to interfere with access to the cottage being approached from a driveway around the corner from the front entrance and which is ideal for bringing in and out a trailer or lorry for the horses. The field itself also has its own access from further along the lane.

The cottage itself offers tremendous living space with the rear extension adding greatly to the functionality of the interior, creating an always positive T' shape plan form. This includes three reception room spaces off a central hallway plus a conservatory at the rear. Three first floor bedrooms and bathroom are complemented by a ground floor bedroom suite with en suite shower room. The kitchen has been refitted by the current owners during their ownership since 2017 and this works well with the Boot Room/Laundry space and ground floor cloakroom, all conveniently by the back door.

In addition to the three stables and double garage, the property has retained some useful period outbuildings providing storage and workshop space.

Windows are double glazed and oil fired radiator heating installed.
