Ipswich Road, Tattingstone

An extended and comprehensively improved four-bedroom detached bungalow, occupying a generous private plot of over 0.25 of an acre (sts) within the sought-after village of Tattingstone.

Offered with no onward chain, the property provides exceptionally versatile accommodation, with the option to create up to five bedrooms or four separate reception rooms. Energy-efficient features include an air source heat pump, solar panels, house batteries and EV charging, contributing to a B-rated EPC.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a bright formal dining room with sliding doors opening onto the rear garden, alongside a generous formal living room, also benefiting from sliding doors and excellent natural light. Two further versatile rooms lead from the living room and are currently arranged as studies, but could provide additional bedrooms, reception rooms or home offices. The superb kitchen is centred around a large feature island and boasts a useful utility room and additional storage area.

There are three further double bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom and guest bedroom with attractive bay windows. Bedroom three is currently used as a dressing room but could easily revert to a bedroom. The accommodation is completed by a beautifully re-fitted family bathroom with bath, separate walk-in shower, bidet and vanity unit, together with a further WC.

Outside, the enclosed rear garden is attractively arranged with lawn and patio areas, providing a private setting for entertaining. The substantial frontage offers extensive off-road parking, with space for numerous vehicles and potentially a camper van, while a detached double garage provides further parking and storage.

Location:
Nestled in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, the charming village of Tattingstone offers a quintessential rural lifestyle with excellent access to local amenities and transport links. This picturesque village is steeped in history and surrounded by rolling farmland, yet remains conveniently close to the vibrant county town of Ipswich, and Manningtree just a short drive away (6 miles).

The property enjoys a truly enviable position on the banks of Alton Water, one of the region’s most scenic and well-loved reservoirs. Alton Water offers a wide range of outdoor pursuits including sailing, fishing, cycling, and walking, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts and active lifestyles alike. The views across the water are ever-changing and provide a peaceful, natural backdrop throughout the seasons.
