Dunningham Drive, Raydon, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP7

Occupying an enviable position on the edge of the sought-after village of Raydon, this impressive detached executive home combines flexible family accommodation with a wonderful semi-rural setting. Set within a substantial garden and enjoying far-reaching views across the adjoining countryside, the property offers an excellent sense of space and privacy, complemented by ample parking and garaging.

The property is approached across an attractive block-paved driveway, providing ample off-road parking and access to the large detached double garage. Established shrubs and planting soften the frontage, while the handsome red-brick exterior and traditional tiled roof give the house an appealing and welcoming appearance.
Once inside, the entrance hall immediately gives a sense of the space and quality found throughout the house. From here, doors lead to the principal ground floor rooms, with useful built-in storage and a cloakroom / WC adding everyday practicality.
The dual aspect living room is a generous and comfortable reception space, beautifully presented and centred around a contemporary wood-burning stove set beneath a timber mantel. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing the room to enjoy plenty of natural light and creating an easy connection with the outside space.
A separate snug provides a versatile second reception room, ideal as a more informal sitting room or home office, and offers valuable flexibility.
The kitchen / dining room forms the social heart of the home and is particularly well suited to both day-to-day living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of sleek high-gloss cabinetry, extensive work surfaces and integrated appliances, with the adjoining dining area providing ample room for a table and chairs.
French doors open onto the garden, further enhancing the sense of light and space and making this an especially appealing room during the warmer months.
Completing the ground floor is a useful utility room, positioned just off the kitchen and providing additional workspace and storage away from the main living areas.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is an impressive and particularly generous room, benefiting from a range of fitted wardrobes and its own en-suite bathroom. The four-piece en-suite is finished in a contemporary style with extensive tiling, creating a comfortable private suite.
Three further bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family and guests, with each enjoying good natural light and pleasant outlooks. One of these bedrooms also benefits from its own en-suite shower room.
The well-appointed, four-piece family bathroom completes the accommodation.
Together, the arrangement provides an excellent balance of bedroom and bathroom accommodation, particularly well suited to a larger or growing family.
To the rear, the property enjoys a particularly generous garden which forms a superb extension of the living accommodation. Immediately adjoining the house are extensive paved terraces and pathways, providing ample space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxed seating while overlooking the garden.
The grounds are predominantly laid to lawn, interspersed with established planting, specimen trees and colourful borders, while mature hedging provides a well-defined boundary. Beyond the garden is an attractive open aspect across the neighbouring countryside, giving the outside space a wonderful sense of openness.
