Newton, Sudbury, Suffolk

SITUATION Harrowdown Cottage occupies a highly desirable position within the Suffolk parish of Newton, a village celebrated for its sense of community, rural charm, and easy access to amenities. The setting combines tranquillity with convenience, being well placed for the nearby market town of Sudbury and the historic city of Colchester, both of which provide a comprehensive range of shopping, schooling, and transport facilities.

The surrounding countryside is particularly attractive, offering abundant opportunities for walking, cycling, and equestrian pursuits. Local highlights include Newton Green Golf Club and the neighbouring collection of picturesque Suffolk villages. With its scenic backdrop of farmland and parish church, Harrowdown Cottage represents a rare opportunity to enjoy a countryside lifestyle without compromising on accessibility. 

DESCRIPTION Harrowdown Cottage is a charming three-bedroom detached property, positioned on a private no-through lane adjacent to the parish church on the edge of the Butler's Farm estate in Newton.

A stainless-steel sink is positioned beneath a window overlooking the rear garden, and there is space window overlooking the rear garden, and there is space and plumbing for further appliances. A cupboard houses the oil-fired boiler. The inner hall offers access to the roof space and an airing cupboard with a water softener.
