Quintessential Period Home with Annexe in Loddon Ingloss

Manor Farm Cottage is an exceptional home that has been thoughtfully and sympathetically renovated to an exacting standard, seamlessly blending character with contemporary comfort. The current owners have created a beautifully balanced property, perfectly positioned to enjoy far-reaching views across open countryside, with the rare advantage of having no immediate neighbours while still remaining accessible. In addition, the property benefits from a highly successful and immaculately presented holiday let.

The principal accommodation is both welcoming and well-proportioned. A spacious entrance hallway leads to a practical utility room and cloakroom. At the heart of the home lies an impressive kitchen, with ample room for a dining table to gather family and friends. Beyond, the striking vaulted garden room draws you in, flooded with natural light and framing the surrounding countryside views. Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed sitting room, centred around an attractive open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three generous bedrooms, complemented by a stylish family bathroom and a separate contemporary shower room.

The self-contained annexe, currently operated as a successful holiday let generating approximately £30,000 per annum, is a particularly valuable addition. It features a vaulted open-plan kitchen and sitting area with a wood-burning stove, creating a bright yet cosy living space. There is also a comfortable double bedroom and a modern shower room. Outside, the annexe enjoys its own private garden, affording delightful countryside views. Equally, it could serve as an ideal space for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

Externally, the property is approached via a gravelled driveway providing ample parking. The grounds are beautifully maintained, with established boundary hedging, sweeping lawns, mature shrub borders, specimen trees, and a well-placed gravel terrace alongside a productive kitchen garden. The setting is a true highlight—offering uninterrupted rural views and a wonderful sense of privacy, without feeling remote.

Positioned in an idyllic stretch of countryside between the market town of Loddon and the ever-popular Bungay, this delightful home enjoys a setting that perfectly balances rural tranquillity with a vibrant lifestyle offering. Whilst falling within the parish of Loddon, its location in the quiet Loddon Ingloss, linking Mundham through to Broome, feels wonderfully tucked away. Bungay, however, is undoubtedly the star of the show; a thriving market town celebrated for its strong sense of community, eclectic mix of independent shops, and flourishing local food and drink scene, alongside the much-loved Fisher Theatre. The surrounding countryside is equally appealing, with a number of excellent farm shops and two nearby vineyards adding to the lifestyle credentials, making this a location that effortlessly combines charm, convenience, and a true sense of place.
