Hemley, Woodbridge, Suffolk, IP12

Enjoying panoramic views across the picturesque Deben estuary, a fully refurbished and immaculately presented semi-detached cottage in a tucked away rural hamlet.

One of the six iconic Victorian cottages overlooking the Deben, No. 5 has been comprehensively refurbished by the present owners in the last few years. The semi-detached cottage offers immaculately presented, well-appointed and wonderfully light accommodation which includes a stunning open plan kitchen/dining room with an electric AGA and Corian work surfaces, together with an equally impressive triple aspect sitting room. Beyond the utility area is a ground floor cloakroom and study.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms, two with large walk-in wardrobes, together with separate high-quality bath and shower rooms. A second-floor large double bedroom (currently used as a studio) has an adjacent room with the plumbing in place for an en suite bath/shower room if required.

The property benefits from an air source heating system with underfloor heating to the ground floor and elsewhere newly installed radiators. There are newly installed wooden double-glazed windows, and the cottage is reported to be well insulated which reflects in a C rating for its Energy Performance Certificate.

OUTSIDE

To the rear of the house is a sheltered and secluded suntrap terrace with a central well, which acts as a water feature and provides pumped water for garden irrigation. Beyond, is a new, traditionally designed timber garage/workshop with power and water connected, together with butler’s sink and potential for outdoor shower, and is heated by a log burning stove.

The sheltered and secluded lawned gardens are enclosed by natural hedgerow and there are flower and shrub borders and raised kitchen garden beds.
