Burthorpe Green, Barrow, IP29

Believed to date back to around 1900, this surprisingly spacious, extended and much improved detached cottage offers a wealth of character together with beautifully presented accommodation.

Set within generous gardens and enjoying superb far-reaching views across open farmland, the property is considerably larger than its exterior might suggest. The accommodation includes a good-sized living room, separate dining room, kitchen, breakfast room and orangery, together with three bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite.

A particular highlight is the large balcony, providing a wonderful space for relaxing or entertaining while taking full advantage of the countryside views. Despite its semi-rural setting, the property is conveniently close to the excellent range of amenities in Barrow, with easy access to the A14 and the historic market town of Bury St Edmunds just five miles away.

With parking, a garage and a truly charming interior, this is a home that really needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
