There are roses around the door at this delightful Regency house, set down a little lane in historic Woodbridge, with the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the doorstep. You’ll be in the centre of things, with the fascinating Tide Mill Museum on the banks of the River Deben just 300 metres away. Explore the National Trust property of Sutton Hoo, an Anglo-Saxon royal burial site less than 3 miles’ drive away. Bring your bikes and set off on the cycling route to the RSPB’s flagship reserve at Minsmere, 21 miles away.
You’re spoilt for choice with two beautifully decorated sitting rooms on the ground floor, one with a TV, armchair and comfortable L-shaped sofa with splashes of green, and the other with books, maps and a table for playing board games. There are two windows and a skylight illuminating the kitchen with its cosy Aga and dining table with benches and chairs for eight. A utility room houses more appliances and there’s a walk-in shower. At the end of the hallway is the lift to the first floor, where you’ll find three light-filled, elegantly furnished bedrooms with ample storage. Each has an armchair and pleasant lighting. The twin room has a cosy, curtained nook for relaxing and reading and the second king-size bedroom has a comfortable window seat. The main bedroom has a en-suite bathroom and the gorgeous family bathroom has a feature wall and a roll-top bath.
Outside is a private courtyard garden with bistro table and chairs. Across the lane in front of the house is a private, lawned garden with paved terrace for BBQs, garden table and benches. A shed houses a table football game and garden games such as croquet, and you can store bikes here.
