Friston, Suffolk

A charming 1930s detached three bedroom house, set in a lovely area of the village, within a few minutes’ drive of the coast.

Glenhurst is a well-loved, 1930’s family home, on the market for the very first time. The property is conveniently located within easy reach of the renowned Snape Maltings and the coastal destinations of Aldeburgh and Thorpeness, while the market town of Saxmundham offers a range of shops, schools and a railway station with services to Ipswich and onward connections to London.

Glenhurst is a traditionally built detached house of red brick construction beneath a pantile roof, occupying a generous and peaceful plot. Sited in over a third of an acre, on the western side of the village, Glenhurst is a short walk from the village hall, St Mary’s Church and the village bowling green.

Light and airy accommodation is arranged over two floors. The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first-floor, and a cloakroom. To the left is a generous double-aspect sitting room with fireplace and French doors offering access to and attractive views over the surrounding gardens. A useful snug/potential study sits to the right.
To the rear of the house is the kitchen, which opens through to a breakfast/dining room, creating an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining. A rear lobby provides access to the garden and utility area.

On the first-floor a landing with airing cupboard serves three double bedrooms, together with a family bathroom.
Outside

The property is approached via a driveway providing ample parking and access to a generous garage at the rear. The front of the house is also approached on foot from Church Path.

A particular feature of Glenhurst is its delightful garden, within which the house sits centrally. The grounds are laid predominantly to lawn and bordered by established herbaceous beds and mature hedging, providing a good degree of privacy. To the rear is a summerhouse, with power, providing a possible home office or studio, and a pleasant place from where to enjoy the garden, with views of the village church. A separate garden shed (with power) and a lean-to greenhouse complete the features of the rear garden.
