Description

Tucked away from the road, this property enjoys a quiet, secluded position in an exclusive development of just four homes. Located on the edge of the pretty village of Yaxley and within the stunning north Suffolk countryside. Yaxley, a charming village offers a beautiful assortment of period and modern properties and offers an historic church and village hall with a strong active local community. The nearby village of Mellis boasts a pub and an Ofsted-rated outstanding school. The property also falls within the catchment for the highly regarded Hartismere School. Yaxley provides easy access to the A140 and is just six or so miles from the historic market town of Diss. Diss offers a wide array of amenities, including supermarkets, shops, restaurants, and leisure facilities, along with a mainline railway station offering direct routes to London Liverpool Street and Norwich.

The property is a four-bedroom detached family house, built 28 years ago by the well-regarded builders Stella Homes. Being of traditional brick and block cavity wall construction, under a pitched tiled roof and heated by an oil-fired boiler via radiators. The home also features replacement sealed unit UPVC windows. More recently, 18 solar panels have been installed, which are owned outright and come with a fixed tariff, generating  approximately .74 pence per kilowatt. These panels offer the dual advantage of lowering energy bills while also generating quarterly payments from the index-linked tariff.

Deceptive in size, this property offers over 1,650 sq ft of beautifully appointed accommodation, presented in excellent decorative order throughout. On the ground floor, the layout is both practical and inviting. A generously sized reception hall creates an impressive first impression and provides access to the principal rooms. The reception room benefits from an abundance of natural light, thanks to its triple-aspect windows, and features an open fireplace as a charming focal point. Beyond this is the spacious garden room, which overlooks the south-facing rear gardens and offers pleasing views of the private gardens. The kitchen/diner is a standout feature, offering substantial space for family living and entertaining. It is immaculately presented and equipped with a range of integrated AEG appliances, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven, combi oven, and hob, all complemented by sleek quartz worktops. A utility room, finished to the same high standard as the kitchen, is located just beyond. Additionally, there is a versatile office/study, perfectly suited for home working or flexible use. Moving to the first floor, a part-galleried landing leads to the bedrooms and family bathroom. The principal bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes and a large storage cupboard plus the luxury of an en-suite. Bedrooms two and three are equally proportioned; bedroom two also has fitted wardrobes, while the fourth bedroom enjoys picturesque views over the rear gardens. Both bathrooms are in an excellent condition.

Externally the property is set back from the road and benefits from off-road parking on a hardstanding driveway leading to the house and a double detached garage. The garage has been partially divided with a partition wall, previously used as a home office. The overall plot size is approximately 0.22 acres, featuring well-established and fully stocked gardens. These private, secluded gardens enjoy a desirable southerly aspect. Behind the garage, a section of the garden is concealed by panel fencing, providing access to two timber sheds and a greenhouse.
