The village has a range of businesses and shops, including a destination butcher-Revetts-and also a Co-operative supermarket, restaurants, a medical centre, dentists, pharmacy and library. There is also a well regarded primary school.

As well as the village primary school, there are many other excellent schools within easy reach in both the state and private sectors, including Brandeston Hall, Framlingham College and Woodbridge School. The property is understood to be in the catchment area of Thomas Mills High School for secondary education.

Wickham Market lies about 12 miles to the north-east of the county town of Ipswich and just off the A12, providing dual carriageway driving to Woodbridge (approximately 4 miles), Ipswich, London and the south. There is a railway station at nearby Campsea Ashe with trains to Ipswich and on to London, which take just over the hour. Local tourist attractions, such as Easton Farm Park, Snape Maltings, Framlingham Castle and Sutton Hoo, are all within a 10 mile radius, as is the coast with popular destinations such as Aldeburgh.
