The Property

Pushing open the front door of Jasmine Cottage, brings one into the pretty entrance porch which forks off into the sitting room and dining room, divided by the staircase. Off to the right is the generous sitting room which is flooded with natural light from the bay window to the front which is found adjacent to the windows looking out towards the paddocks and stables. A rear hall leads into the pretty cottage kitchen which is bright and airy and enjoys views into the garden and across the open fields beyond. Cream base and wall units are complimented with cream tiled splash backs which lay above the speckled worktops. The one and a half bowl sink sits beneath the window, with the basket drawers and a wine rack set back into the exposed brick chimney breast along with the boiler. The wood effect laminate flooring continues round into the well-proportioned dining room which looks out across to the front of the property and towards the fields where horses can be found grazing. An exposed red-brick chimney breast with a wood-burning stove draws one's eye and provides a charming focal point to the room. Leading through to the rear of the property and found off the rear hall is a spacious family bathroom with a matching white three piece suite with the tiled splash backs adding a pop of colour. Past the bathroom and at the end of the hall is the generous utility room which leads out to the garden. Wooden base and wall units line one side of the room with the stainless steel sink found beneath the window looking across to the stables. Climbing the staircase brings one to the spacious landing with the master bedroom found at the rear of the property. The dual aspect floods the room with natural light and provides charming views across the paddocks, stables and the surrounding Suffolk countryside. Across from the master and at the front of the cottage is a bright double bedroom with space behind the door for a dressing area. A bright single room is currently being used as a study and features a skylight as well as a window which looks into the pretty garden. At the far end of the landing a family bathroom can be found with a large walk-in shower, pedestal sink and wc, all finished to a high standard. The final bedroom is a spacious double which enjoys a fitted cupboard and sublime views across fields and the tranquil open countryside.



Annexe

Pushing past the Duck Egg Green front door brings one into the immaculately finished annexe. The entrance hall provides a welcoming space and leads past the well-finished kitchen. Cream base and wall units have been well-laid out, with beech worktops in which the electric hob and one and a half bowl sink have been set. A single oven has been raised to allow for greater ease of use and a window found opposite looks across to the stables. A sleek shower room, with walk-in double shower, separates the wonderfully spacious sitting/dining room from the generous bedroom. The sitting room, being triple aspect, is flooded with natural light and enjoys sublime views into the fields, paddocks and gardens which surround this pretty annexe. French doors lead out to the private garden which has been beautifully planted and maintained. Across from the sitting room is a good double bedroom which leads through to a generous dressing room with fitted wardrobes lining one wall.



Outside

An incredibly mature fir tree sits proudly in the large drive which provides ample parking for numerous cars and would accommodate a horse box or trailer. A five-bar gate gives way to the hard standing which leads to three smart stables and tack room, and also features power, lighting and automatic water troughs. Trees and bushes run along the back of the stables with an enclosed arena found at the front which separates the stables from the pretty timber annexe. Past the stables and through a further five-bar gate, gives way to the separate field entrance which can be accessed from the road and leads out to the grass paddocks which extends to a little under three acres. Two field shelters are well spaced around the paddock sitting back along the fence line which has all been well maintained. Heading back towards the main house, a gravelled pathway leads down the side of the cottage which leads into the pretty garden and through to the front door of the annexe. Past the cottages back door, a generous patio is sheltered from the wind and provides a wonderful sun trap from which to enjoy a summers eve. A mature Horse Chestnut tree takes pride of place in the centre of the lawn, with mature planting wrapping round the edges of the grass and adding a hint of colour.
