The Property
Entering the property via the front door that leads from the parking area, we are welcomed by the entrance hall where the character of the cottage and surprising amount of space is instantly apparent. Latch and brace doors open from here to the kitchen dining room and the shower room. The shower room forms part of a later addition and is fitted with a shower, w/c and basin set over a vanity storage unit. Crossing the hall to the kitchen dining room the property comes into its own. Exposed beams reflect the light from the two windows that enjoy the rural views front and rear. A handmade kitchen lines the walls and we find the oven, hob and extractor set to the former fireplace. Ample space is made for dining and a large walk in pantry adds to the storage space. A door opens to the stairs on one side of the fireplace whilst on the other we open to the sitting room. The space in the sitting room is superb, further enhanced by four windows that fill the room with natural light and again take in the views. Timber beams line the ceiling and an open fireplace creates a cosy focal point to the room. French doors lead out to the lean-to garden room, which offers the perfect spot to enjoy the garden and view all year round.

Climbing the stairs to the first floor we enter the landing/bedroom. This vast space has served as a guest bedroom and study area for the current vendors. Windows to both the front and rear enjoy the elevated views and doors open to the main bedroom and bedroom three. Bedroom three is a generous single room where we find the airing cupboard, whilst opposite bedroom one serves as a superb double, again enjoying a dual aspect. From here we step into bedroom four, a further generous single room. The first floor offers space to reconfigure and adapt to the expectations of modern living.


Outside
From Laxfield Road we approach the property via two entrances. At the house, the entrance opens to the parking area, whilst at the foot of the plot a five-bar gate opens to the timber workshop and garage with hardstanding to the front. The plot follows the road and provides a generous but narrow garden space that extends to both sides of White Post Cottage with open boundaries to the rear that allow us to make the most of the open rural views over the surrounding farmland. To the front established hedging forms the boundary on the road side, and the main of the garden is laid to lawn and planted with established fruit trees and shrubs. At the rear of the house, we find tw patio areas that lead from the lean to garden room and offer the perfect spot to sit and take in the aspect at the rear.

Location
The property is situated enjoying beautiful rural views front and rear, on the Laxfield Road as we leave the desirable village of Fressingfield. The village has two pubs/restaurants; the highly acclaimed Fox and Goose, a fine restaurant and country pub and the Swan, a traditional pub and restaurant. Fressingfield also has an excellent Village Shop and fine Church of St Peter and St Paul. The village also benefits from a primary school and medical centre. Fressingfield is situated 12 miles east of Diss which offers mainline rail services to London and is just a 40 minute drive from the popular coast at Southwold. Fressingfield is also ideally situated for access to the market towns of Bungay, Harleston, Halesworth and Framlingham, which are just a short drive away.
