Cross Green, Hartest

Overlooking open fields to the front, this attractive Grade II Listed 'chocolate box' cottage is nestled in the heart of the picturesque and highly sought-after village of Hartest, Suffolk. Full of period charm, the property has recently benefited from a new thatched roof and offers a generous shingle driveway with parking for approximately four vehicles. The well tended rear garden and timeless frontage create an inviting first impression that perfectly matches the idyllic village surroundings. Internally, the property is also rich in original features throughout.

Entering through the side door, you step into the dining room, complete with a front-facing window and fireplace. From here, a door leads to a staircase rising to bedroom one, while another opens into the beautiful lounge which boasts a wood-burning stove and exposed timbers, creating a cosy atmosphere that’s perfect year round. To the rear of the lounge, a door leads into an inner hallway, which provides access to a second staircase, ground floor WC, and a practical boot room. The boot room connects to both the utility room and the main bathroom, which features a contemporary four-piece suite, including a large walk-in shower cubicle, panelled bath, WC and wash basin.

The utility room is well-equipped with integrated appliances and ample storage, and also links back to the dining room. At the rear of the property is the real feature of this impressive property; the stunning kitchen/breakfast room. Boasting a vaulted ceiling, central island, and French doors to the garden, plus a large window framing the beautiful rear garden, this room complete with a seating area is the real heart of the home.

Outside, the established rear garden offers a tranquil escape with mature planting, a useful storage shed, and a charming summerhouse which is ideal for those working from home, hosting guests, or simply enjoying a peaceful retreat.
