Low Street, Hoxne, IP21

A rare opportunity to acquire a detached period cottage within Low Street, Hoxne which offers 3 bedrooms and sizeable plot with good vehicular access and parking. Not so very small and arguably perfectly formed, this super cottage will make someone a really appealing, character home.

Woodlands is a detached period cottage standing alone alongside Low Street as it rises to the junction with the B1118. The current owners having acquired the property in 2012 for a number of years ran the property as a Holiday Cottage until moving into it themselves. It is now time to pass it on and what a lovely time to acquire it as we move towards the Summer. The location is delightful given the large rising plot extending to a wooded backdrop. From the high point of the garden one can enjoy a tremendous view across this lovely part of Hoxne village. The area immediately around the cottage has been improved since we last sold the property these owners and now one can easily drive in and turn around let alone park additional vehicles. Equally, a larger and improved patio was formed and oak retaining sleepers installed complete with steps up to the higher lawned area. Internally, the well planned space comprises main reception room with study/playroom along with a kitchen capable of taking a table and chairs, all off a central hallway. What's more, the ground floor also includes a cloakroom complementing the bathroom upstairs. Talking of which, upstairs one can find three bedrooms of comparable size which together allow for windows on all four sides, something which is not that common. With practicalities in mind, the owners have maintained an oil fired radiator heating system and created within an adjacent insulated timber shed, a kitted out Laundry Room complete with plumbing and space for a washing machine etc. A larger and suitable as a Workshop timber building, will remain and be found at the top of the garden.

Location

Hoxne (Pronounced Hoxon) is a historically fascinating village within North Suffolk, just south of the River Waveney, the natural boundary between neighbouring Norfolk. The surrounding countryside is criss crossed by a network of footpaths and lanes linking the village to the wider area be it on two feet or either two or four wheels. Eye, Harleston and Diss with its mainline rail services to London Liverpool Street, are all easily reached as are the principal roads such as the A143 and A140. The village has an active community evidenced by the range of activities taking place throughout the year be they at the Village Hall, Community Hall & Playing Field, Village Green, Parish Church and soon to be reopening pub. Hoxne is also fortunate in retaining a Primary School which 'feeds' into Hartismere High School in Eye which itself not only offers Sixth Form but also retains 'Outstanding' status. Woodlands is situated within the favoured Low Street area of the village, a little way up hill from the Green and with a sizeable garden behind and wooded backdrop.
