Location
The property  is located on Melton Hill, just a short distance to the north-west of Woodbridge as well as the River Deben.  Melton itself is a popular village with a well supported primary school, large playing field with tennis courts and children’s play equipment, good pub/restaurant, The Coach and Horses, an independent village shop, small petrol station and Spar convenience store.  

Woodbridge is probably best known for its outstanding riverside setting. It is also a very popular market town, offering a good choice of schooling in both the state and private sectors, a wide variety of shops and restaurants, a cinema/theatre and marina. Both Melton and Woodbridge also benefit from rail links to Ipswich, where Inter City rail services to London’s Liverpool Street station take just over the hour. The popular Heritage Coastline destinations of Orford and Aldeburgh are approximately 10 miles and 15 miles respectively. The County Town of Ipswich is approximately 8 miles to the south-west. 

Directions
Proceeding north along the Woodbridge by-pass, bear right at the roundabout on to the A1152 signposted to Melton.  Continue down the hill and at the traffic lights turn right onto the B1438.  Proceed along this road past the playingfields and Spar convenience shop and the property will be found on the right hand side, after approximately one third of a mile, close to the Deben Mill development.

Description
5 Prospect Place is a well presented Victoria townhouse that offers generous accommodation across three floors.

In all, the property extends to approximately 850 sq. ft (79 sqm) with a front door opening into a sitting room with open/working fireplace and exposed wooden floor.  This links well with the 26’ open-plan kitchen/dining room.  This area has been refurbished in recent years with the kitchen units all being replaced, new tiled flooring with underfloor heating installed and the roof covering replaced.  In addition, the boiler was replaced in  2021 and a water softener was also fitted at the same time.

In the dining area a staircase rises to the first floor where there is a guest double bedroom with window overlooking Melton Hill, and a good size bathroom that is sufficiently large enough to accommodate a bath, separate shower, WC and sink unit.  From the landing stairs rise to the second floor where the principal bedroom will be found.  The accommodation is semi-open planned with the exposed chimney stack partly subdividing the rooms, with the rear part of the second floor accommodation being utilised as a dressing area.  Alternatively this could be used as an office or, if required, a third bedroom.

Outside there is a garden to the front of the property, which is enclosed within iron railings and established shrubs, whilst to the rear is a very modest courtyard, that can be accessed from the French doors serving the kitchen.
