The Property
Stepping into 'Brambles' the attention to detail insisted on throughout the home is instantly apparent, we are welcomed by the spacious entrance porch, which flows seamlessly into the sitting room with our eye being drawn to the stunning, original Suffolk brick floor that continues into the kitchen diner. A brick fireplace houses the multi fuel wood burner and creates the perfect focal point to the room whilst one of the newly fitted, double-glazed sash windows looks onto the front courtyard. A replica wrought iron radiator sits below the window, forming part of the modern electric 'app-controlled' heating system. A latch and brace door opens from here to the kitchen/diner. This superb space is testament to the thought and planning in every part of the home. A range of modern yet classic fitted units line the walls, set against solid Oak work surfaces. An inset butler sink sits below the window where we take in a view of the garden, and we find a full range of integrated appliances including dishwasher, washing machine, fridge freezer and a microwave oven. The Aga cooker takes centre stage and our stairs rise from here to the first floor. At the rear, we step through the lobby where additional units provide extra storage and we find a door leading out to the garden, whilst internally we step into the shower room. The shower room echoes the superb finish, boasting a double-width ground-level shower, wash basin, and w/c set against delightful splash backs and timber effect flooring. Climbing the stairs to the first floor, we find the two bedrooms. Set to the front, the master bedroom enjoys two fitted cupboards to either side of the chimney whilst a window enjoys the view along New Road. Timber doors and exposed floorboards remind us of the age of the cottage in contrast to the clean lines and exceptional finish. At the rear, the second double bedroom enjoys an over-stairs cupboard and further storage in the airing cupboard which houses the modern water tank. This completes the accommodation.

Outside
From Fen Lane we approach the property via New Road which leads us past this charming run of cottages. Number six (Brambles) is situated on the right-hand side and we find our off-road parking opposite. A gate opens to the front courtyard of this stunning Suffolk Cottage and we find a delightful timber decked seating area perfect to take in the view back towards the river, whilst the shingled path leads to the front door. At the rear we step from the lobby into the walled rear garden. Again a mix of shingle and timber decking form the perfectly designed, low-maintenance landscaping set against a stunning brick and flint wall which creates a superb sun trap. A gate leads in from the side and provides access to number seven and eight.

Location
