Regnum Cottage
Regnum Cottage is an individual home, designed by the former owners with Potton, presenting an attractive traditional cottage style and modern layout. It has been owned by the same family since new and offered for sale now for the first time, with no onward chain.

The front door leads into a spacious hallway, with access to a WC cloakroom and a large under stairs cupboard. The sitting room to the front, has a large window overlooking the front garden, small window to the side, and a feature brick exposed fireplace, and exposed timbers. It opens through to the garden room to the rear, once a separate room (potential to divide this off and reinstate as bedroom 3) with sliding doors accessing the rear garden. The dining room is spacious, with window to the front and exposed open stud and brickwork, opening through to the kitchen, with a range of fitted oak faced units, including electric hob, oven and grill, and integrated fridge appliances (now somewhat dated) and door through to the utility room. The utility room houses the oil-fired boiler, plumbing for further appliances and a door to the rear. Both the kitchen and utility rooms, and appliances would now benefit from modernising.

Upstairs, the spacious landing with large double cupboard for linens and window to the rear, leads to all rooms. The main bedroom is a double room, with built-in double wardrobe storage, and eaves cupboard, window to the front. The second bedroom also a good size, has built in wardrobe, eaves cupboard, and window to the front. The family bathroom has a shower-over a walk-in P-shaped bath, basin, WC and window to the side.

Overall, the décor and fittings now are a little dated and suited to someone who would like to put their own stamp on a property, potentially increase its value and appeal, and enjoy this property in a wonderful location.

Outside
Attached to the side is a good-sized single garage, with a divided off study/office space to the rear, with a window to the side, and courtesy door. Regnum Cottage enjoys a spacious sealed driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles to the front. The front gardens are mostly lawned and surrounded by low hedging. There is open paved side access to both sides of the cottage.

The rear gardens, paths and patio areas lead from the back of the house to attractive lawned gardens, with established hedges and shrubs, the plot being well screened by mature trees behind the boundary to the rear. There is a garden shed and a greenhouse, and a timber summerhouse, and modern oil tank. As with the house, the new owner can realise the potential of the generous plot this cottage is positioned in, add their own touches to the well-maintained gardens to make it their own.

Location
Horringer is a well-served and popular village, approximately 3 miles to the south-west of the market town of Bury St. Edmunds. The main street is attractive and includes many period and fine homes. There are pre-and primary schools, a church, two popular public houses, The Beehive and The Six Bells, regular bus services, village hall and active local community. This location is also well known for Ickworth House and grounds managed by the National Trust. Here you’ll find a beautiful and extensive area of parkland, woodland, lake, formal gardens, and of course the famous Rotunda and house. Regnum Cottage is situated on Sharpe’s Lane, a quiet semi-rural position, just south of the village centre yet walkable to all the aforementioned local amenities, also close to open countryside.
