About this property

A sociable open-plan living space features a central wood burner, and the enclosed garden offers peace of mind for pet owners. Historic Long Melford - one of the great Cloth Towns of Medieval Suffolk - sits surrounded by countryside and close to the Essex border. Its main street lined with an eclectic selection of shops, galleries and eateries; the village is famed for its fine residences - among them this striking terrace of white-boarded cottages.

A choice of seating provides ample space to relax, while the dining area is perfectly appointed for lingering over meals. There's a renowned restaurant just moments away, but you'll find all the essentials for fuss-free self-catering in the chic kitchen, while the adjacent utility room leads to a ground-floor bathroom. Upstairs, the skilful distribution of space ensures a restful retreat. The main bedroom is a tranquil double, with its own TV and en-suite shower room. The second bedroom, equally inviting, is a twin with dual-aspect windows allowing a lovely flow of fresh air and daylight. A separate dressing room provides additional space, and a first-floor WC ensures convenience for all. Your living space extends into an enclosed rear garden where there's a patio with seating plus a lawn and seasonal planting. Parking is on-street and subject to availability.
Shops, pubs and restaurants are all close to your doorstep, so forget about your car for a while and explore Long Melford at your leisure.
