A deceptively spacious and characterful village house with attractive garden and the benefit of off-street parking.

Located within the centre of Melton village, and within walking distance of the rail station, Toll Rest offers generous accommodation arranged over two storeys and extends to over 2,000 sq ft.

Listed Grade II and presenting painted brick and rendered elevations with sash windows, beneath pitched slate and pan tile roofs, this deceptively spacious property offers light and bright rooms and is presented to a high standard throughout.

The part vaulted principal reception room is complete with wood burning stove and double doors to the garden, linking to the Neptune kitchen/breakfast room, fully fitted with integrated appliances and central island unit complete with breakfast bar. There is an atmospheric central dining room, along with south facing study, and completing the ground floor is the WC, along with utility room.

Stairs rise to the first floor to access the four double bedrooms and the two bathrooms, (en suite shower room to the principal bedroom).

OUTSIDE

Approached from Station Road there are parking provisions for two vehicles with gated access direct to the garden, with lawned area and paved seating terrace.

The attractive and south-easterly orientated garden is designed to be low maintenance and affords fantastic vistas towards St Andrew’s Church.

LOCATION

Toll Rest is accessed from Station Road within the village of Melton, just to the east of Woodbridge. Melton has good local facilities, including a primary school, general stores, grocer and renowned butcher, along with local pub, recreation park and rail station.

The popular riverside town of Woodbridge lies within walking distance and offers an extensive range of local shopping and commercial facilities, a choice of top performing schools in both the private and state sectors, catering for all age groups, and numerous recreational opportunities, with rowing and sailing clubs on the nearby River Deben, together with tennis, rugby and football clubs and a choice of golf courses on the edge of the town. Both Woodbridge and Melton have rail stations, with regular services linking to the county town of Ipswich (8 miles to the west), connecting to the frequent main line services to London’s Liverpool Street Station, which take about 70 minutes.
