Description

Palmer & Partners are delighted to present to the market this beautiful two double bedroom detached cottage located in an idyllic and private setting in the village of Aldringham. The cottage has been maintained to an exceptionally high standard by the current owners and offers a unique blend of modern living combined with charming period features; the beautifully maintained wraparound gardens are a particular selling feature, and the cottage also comes with a substantial shingle driveway providing ample off-road parking with potential for a cart lodge (subject to planning permission). As agents, we recommend the earliest possible viewing to fully appreciate the peaceful location and the quality of the accommodation on offer which comprises an inviting entrance hall; stylish refitted ground floor bathroom; fully integrated kitchen; dual aspect dining room; cosy sitting room with wood burning stove; and on the first floor are two good sized double bedrooms, one of which has built-in wardrobes.

Directions:-
Bluebell Cottage is located down a quiet bridleway track diagonally opposite the Parrot & Punchbowl pub. Look out for the bridleway sign on the opposite side of the road to the pub and follow the track to the end. Bluebell Cottage is the last property on your righthand side.

The tranquil village of Aldringham is conveniently located less than three miles from the pretty coastal town of Aldeburgh and less than two miles from both the seaside village of Thorpeness and the vibrant town of Leiston. Aldringham is a short drive inland from Suffolk’s Heritage Coast which is well-known as being an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and provides a wealth of footpaths through woodlands and nature reserves, and along river banks.

Leiston provides a good range of shops and amenities including a Co-op supermarket, a chemist, a post office, a bank, doctors and dentist surgeries, vets, library, leisure centre, cinema and recreational parks as well as a selection of pubs. The town is served by a regular bus service to outlying villages and beyond and with Saxmundham’s railway station only four miles away, Ipswich and London are easily accessible.

Aldeburgh enjoys breath-taking views both seawards and following the river Alde inland towards Orford, and provides local amenities including craft, food and antiques shops, independent boutiques as well as some national chains, plus a myriad of pubs and an independent cinema.
