Description
Garden House is a charming, extended, five bedroom detached red brick cottage set in a rural location occupying a plot of approximately one third of an acre and with the benefit of a studio with kitchenette and cloakroom.  Garden House has predominantly red brick elevations under a pantile roof.  It has been exceptionally well maintained and has well laid out accommodation which has been cleverly remodelled and enhanced by the current owner during their tenure.  

The property comprises an entrance porch, kitchen with garden room off, sitting room, snug, office/bedroom five, a further bedroom with en-suite shower room and a bathroom on the ground floor.  On the first floor there is  a principal bedroom with an en-suite cloakroom, a further double bedroom, a dressing room/bedroom four and a shower room.  

The house is approached via the entrance porch, which opens into the kitchen.  The kitchen has a small window to the front, recessed lighting and is fitted with a range of painted base units with a butler sink inset into a wooden worktop.  There is a four ring induction hob with electric oven under and extractor hood over.  There is a separate warming drawer, space and plumbing for dishwasher and a walk-in pantry with shelving, space and plumbing for a washing machine and space for a microwave. The kitchen and garden room both benefit from polished concrete floors.  An opening from the kitchen provides access to the garden room which has a vaulted ceiling, underfloor heating and windows which take in the views of the garden to the side and the rear.  There are French style doors that open out onto a paved terrace.  

From the kitchen a door provides access to the sitting room which has exposed wall and ceiling timbers, recessed red brick fireplace with bressummer beam over and housing a woodburning stove.  There are wall mounted lights and radiators.  The sitting room opens into a rear lobby with skylight and with doors off to the office, which was formerly bedroom five.  This is fitted with a range of book shelves and a desk, a vertical radiator and has French style doors leading out to a terrace to the side of the property.  From the rear lobby a further door provides access to the ground floor guest bedroom, a further double bedroom with windows to the side, vertical radiator and door to an en-suite shower room.  This comprises built-in shower cubicle with tiled surround and mains fed deluge shower with handheld attachment, close coupled WC and handwash basin with mixer tap over and cupboard under.  There is an opaque window to the rear.  From the sitting room  a further door leads to the bathroom which has tiled floor and a range of built-in cupboards.  There is a free standing roll top bath with mixer tap over and shower attachment, close coupled WC, pedestal handwash basin with part-tiled surround, wall mounted radiator and obscured glazed window.  An opening from the sitting room leads to the snug.  This is a cosy room with exposed red brick fireplace housing the woodburning stove, exposed ceiling and wall timbers and with windows to the front and rear.  There are wall mounted lights, a column radiator and a large built-in cupboard.  

Stairs from the snug rise to the spacious first floor landing which is split into two areas, but benefits from windows to the front, partially vaulted ceiling and column radiator.  Bedroom one is a wonderful, dual aspect bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers, feature radiator, part panelled wall and door to the en-suite cloakroom, which comprises a close coupled WC and pedestal handwash basin.  Bedroom two is a further double bedroom with a window to the rear, column radiator, exposed beam studwork and built-in wardrobe.  Bedroom five/dressing room has a window to the rear, exposed beam studwork and exposed floorboards.  Formerly used as a good size single bedroom it now houses a hanging rail and shelving.  A final door from the landing provides access to the shower room which comprises a built-in double shower tray with mains fed deluge shower over and handheld attachment, close coupled WC, pedestal handwash basin, extractor fan, exposed floorboards, chrome heated towel radiator and recessed lighting.  

Outside
The property is approached from the highway via a large gravelled driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles.  Here there is also a timber framed double garage with double opening doors to front, window to side and power and light connected.  There is a further timber shed with carport connected, again with power and light connected, as well as a potting shed, also with light and power.  A gate provides  access to the rear garden.  This is mainly laid to lawn with strategically placed and well stocked flower and shrub beds, a few raised vegetable beds and paved terraces.  There are outstanding views from the garden over neighbouring farmland.  

Within the garden there is a large paved terrace and a landscaped area in front of the red brick Studio.  The studio itself  also has red brick elevations under a slate roof and is partially timber clad to the rear. It is currently used as an entertaining dining room and snug with vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, a woodburning stove, kitchenette and cloakroom.  There are windows to the front and rear and laminate style flooring.  The kitchenette area has an obscure window, a basic range of units with butler sink with mixed tap over, tiled splashbacks and Triton water heater.   The cloakroom comprises a close coupled WC and wall mounted basin with cupboard under and mixer tap over.

About Clarke & Simpson

Clarke & Simpson is an independent firm of Chartered Surveyors dealing in rural property matters including estate agency, residential lettings, farm and land sales, professional valuations, estate management, auctioneering and architectural work. With a team of over thirty working from our office in the medieval town of Framlingham, we pride ourselves on our wealth of experience and knowledge and do our very best to a offer a completely dedicated, personal and professional service.

Whilst our business is based around bricks and mortar, more fundamentally it is about people and this is where Clarke & Simpson hope that we genuinely excel. We believe our reputation is built on openness and honesty.

History

The business was started in Christopher Clarke's playroom back in 1989. Christopher had previously been the managing director of a large corporate agency and was keen to get back to his original roots of selling property and offering a first class personal service. The business may have grown but there is still the great enthusiasm from all the team to offer the highest quality care and attention.

Service

We all detest phoning any business and either getting an answerphone or speaking to someone who cannot help and are simply fielding the call. We really want everyone who contacts us to feel that we have done our very best to help in a prompt and efficient manner. When you call during working hours you will always get to speak to one of our experienced team, not an answer phone. If that person cannot immediately help you, they will do their utmost to find someone who can.

  • Call us and always get to speak to a member of our experienced staff and never an answerphone during office hours.
  • With our team of over thirty, including eight Chartered Surveyors, we are confident that our personal and truly professional service will most often be a cut above the rest.
  • Our agents have lived and worked in Suffolk for most of their lives and are proud of the fact that they know most small lanes, pubs, schools and parishes in the area, and can offer buyers and sellers honest and knowledgeable advice.
  • We work on the basis that, having dealt with Clarke & Simpson, you would be happy and keen to recommend us to your family and friends.
