Woodbridge, just two and a half miles away, is probably best known for its outstanding riverside setting. It is also a very popular market town, offering a good choice of schooling in both the state and private sectors, a wide variety of shops and restaurants, a cinema/theatre and marina. Both Melton and Woodbridge also benefit from rail links to Ipswich, where Inter City rail services to London’s Liverpool Street station take just over the hour. The popular Heritage Coastline destinations of Orford and Aldeburgh are approximately 10 miles and 15 miles respectively. The County Town of Ipswich is approximately 8 miles to the south-west. 

Directions
Approaching Ufford from the direction of Wickham Market continue out of Wickham Market on the B1438, passing through Pettistree and continuing into Ufford, take the left hand turn into Crownfields.  The garage and parking for Rowan House (no. 46) can be found a short way down on the right; it is easier to park here and enter the property from the rear.

Description
Rowan House was constructed in the mid 1990s and has been in the same ownership since.  It is a well designed four bedroom detached family house located in the popular village of Ufford with colour washed and rendered elevations under a pitched tiled roof offering exceptionally well maintained and classically presented accommodation over two storeys.  The accommodation comprises a reception hall, downstairs cloakroom, dual aspect sitting room and large kitchen/dining room overlooking the gardens to front and rear, an office with views to rear, principal bedroom with en-suite shower room and three further good sized bedrooms served by a family bathroom.  The property benefits from gas fired central heating throughout and modern UPVC double glazed windows and doors.  

One of the property’s many highlights are the JJ Designs landscaped gardens that sit to the front and rear which have been cleverly designed.  The front has been designed to be low maintenance and private and the rear with raised paved terrace area, a feature, well-stocked pond and a summer house overlooking the gardens which are mainly laid to lawn with established and well stocked flower and shrub borders.  There is a pathway that circumnavigates the garden and leads to the gated rear access and through a personnel door to the garage.  The gardens are deceptively secluded, offering a great deal of privacy and are enclosed predominantly by close boarded fencing with a brick wall to the rear.
