Church Street, Ipswich, IP7

Few addresses in Hadleigh carry the history of Church Street. Number 6, a Grade II listed townhouse with origins in the 16th or 17th century, has been comprehensively restored as a private home, pairing centuries of character with a contemporary finish rarely found in the town.

Behind its handsome 19th-century frontage, with sash windows, a ground-floor bay and a finely detailed pedimented doorcase, the house forms part of a listed group of period homes at Nos. 2 to 8 Church Street, just moments from St Mary’s Church.

For many years the building served as offices. It has now been returned to its original purpose as a family home, following a full programme of restoration. The ground floor offers two elegant reception rooms, giving space for formal entertaining and quieter evenings alike. At the heart of the home is a newly fitted kitchen, designed in equal measure for everyday family life and for entertaining.

The house has been newly tiled throughout in Porcelanosa, the Spanish manufacturer renowned for its premium porcelain and natural stone, setting the standard for a specification that runs through the whole house.

Upstairs, four bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family, guests or a home office, served by 3 bathrooms, including an en-suite to the principal bedroom.

The result is a house that honours its history while offering everything expected of modern family life.

Location
Hadleigh is one of Suffolk’s most handsome market towns, with more than 240 listed buildings, a thriving independent high street and a strong sense of community. 6 Church Street sits at the very centre of the town, moments from St Mary’s Church, the medieval Guildhall and the Deanery Tower (three of Hadleigh’s four Grade I listed buildings), and a short stroll from the shops, cafés and restaurants of the High Street.

The surrounding Brett Valley offers beautiful walking country, and the Dedham Vale National Landscape, better known as Constable Country, lies within easy reach.

Ipswich and Colchester are both easily accessible by road. For London, mainline stations at Manningtree (approximately 10 miles) and Ipswich offer direct services to Liverpool Street, with the fastest trains from Manningtree taking under an hour.

A Rare Opportunity
Listed period townhouses restored to this standard rarely come to the market in central Hadleigh.

With its history, its finish and its position at the heart of the town, 6 Church Street is a home of real distinction. Early viewing is highly recommended.
