A DETACHED BUNGALPOW built in the early 1950's and situated on a good sized plot in the village of Shotley approx. 9 miles to the South-East of Ipswich town centre, between the Rivers Orwell and Stour. Of traditional brick construction under a concrete tiled roof the bungalow overlooks open farmland to the front and rear.
