A delightful house set back from the road with stunning views

Description

Situated in the sought-after village of Cretingham, this charming bespoke home enjoys stunning far-reaching views across the Deben Valley countryside. Built approximately 16 years ago, the property showcases beautiful oak-framed construction beneath a traditional pitched pantile roof, blending character craftsmanship with contemporary living.

The welcoming ground floor is predominantly open plan and benefits from underfloor heating throughout. At its heart is a central oak staircase that rises to the first-floor accommodation. The thoughtfully designed contemporary kitchen features granite work surfaces, integrated appliances, and a central island, flowing seamlessly into the bright breakfast area. A roof lantern and expansive glazed French doors flood the space with natural light and open directly onto the garden, perfectly framing the surrounding field views. A practical utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the impressive principal bedroom enjoys a stylish en-suite shower room and fully glazed French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony, offering breath taking panoramic views over the countryside beyond. There are three further well-proportioned bedrooms, one with its own en-suite, in addition to a family bathroom. Throughout the first floor, exposed oak beams and vaulted ceilings create a wonderful sense of warmth, character, and space.
