Description

Believed to date back to the 18th century, this charming detached cottage is rich in character, with many original features including exposed timbers, all carefully retained and complemented by thoughtful improvements made by the current owners.

Extended over time, the property now offers a very comfortable and flexible range of accommodation, centred around a superb kitchen/family room which forms the heart of the home and provides an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining.

Set within good-sized gardens and enjoying the benefit of ample parking, an electric vehicle charging point and a detached outbuilding ideal for a home office or gym, the property combines period charm with modern practicality, all within the thriving village community of Walsham Le Willows.

Sometimes, from the moment you step inside a property, you instantly fall in love with its character and charm, and that is very much likely to be the case with this stunning home. The property has been sympathetically improved by the current vendors and now provides well-balanced accommodation, retaining all the character and charm you would hope for from a home of this age.

On the ground floor, a cosy sitting room with wood burner provides a welcoming retreat. The main reception space is the impressive kitchen/family/dining room, which is beautifully appointed with a bespoke fitted kitchen and offers an excellent space for modern family life, with a utility room leading off and a rear porch adding further practicality. Also on the ground floor are two bedrooms and a well-appointed bathroom, offering flexibility for guests or for those seeking single-level living.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite includes a dressing area and a well-fitted en suite shower room, creating a private and comfortable space away from the main living areas.

The cottage, which benefits from sealed unit glazing and oil-fired central heating, has had significant improvements made to its insulation properties - since the time the energy performance certificate was produced, and now provides very comfortable accommodation, all presented to a high standard.

Outside, the property is set within attractive and well-proportioned gardens, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. A detached and fully insulated outbuilding provides additional accommodation - ideal for use as a large home office, gym or studio, while the driveway offers ample off-road parking along with the benefit of an electric vehicle charging point.

Welcome to The Mortimer & Gausden Partnership

We are Independent Estate Agents based in the beautiful market town of Bury St. Edmunds.

Since opening our doors in 2008, Mortimer & Gausden has grown into one of the area’s most trusted estate agencies. Founded by Andrew Mortimer and Ian Gausden, the business was built on a simple guiding philosophy: treat people as you would like to be treated. Their dedication, integrity and local expertise laid the foundations for our reputation.

In 2026, we entered a new phase as we became The Mortimer & Gausden Partnership. This evolution acknowledges our continued growth and, importantly, recognises the strength of our team - now all Property Partners. Working collaboratively rather than individually, each Partner brings specialist skills and experience, ensuring every client benefits from the insight and support of the whole team.

This collective approach keeps the client at the heart of everything we do. You can expect genuine advice, professional guidance and a level of service that is personal, consistent and focused on achieving the very best outcome for your move.
