An immaculately presented village house with stunning formal gardens and woodland grounds.
Hill Farm Cottage, with its reed thatch roof (reported as being rethatched in 2018) and leaded light windows, is a delightful village house, thought to date from the late 16th Century.
The immaculately presented, high quality accommodation extends to some 2,569 sq ft and includes a stunning bespoke Touchwood kitchen with a feature glazed gable, a Lacanche range and a Liebherr French style fridge freezer. The white silestone surfaces set perfectly against the ceramic tiled flooring whilst an atmospheric dining room with oak floor and exposed timbers links beyond the reception hall to the 30ft long twin aspect drawing room with its fitted library shelving and glazed garden door to the wide sun trap terrace to the rear.
The ground floor is completed with an equally impressive sitting room with a vaulted ceiling, central roof lantern and sliding doors to the garden terrace. An adjoining shower room makes it suitable for use as a ground floor bedroom suite if preferred.
On the first floor are three double bedrooms with exposed ceiling timbers, a luxury period style bathroom and two modern en suite shower rooms. The master bedroom currently has a dressing room which, if preferred, could be used as a fourth bedroom.
The property benefits from a mains gas fired central heating, as well a modern security system.
OUTSIDE
Hill Farm Cottage is screened to the front by an enclosing brick wall and wide evergreen hedging. There is a gravelled parking and turning driveway, fronting onto which is a garage and workshop, whilst to the side is a useful range of domestic stores.
GARDENS AND GROUNDS
The house overlooks its beautiful formal gardens. Immediately to the rear is a wide sheltered terrace, which is accessible from a number of points of the house and ideal for alfresco dining, links to a further terrace sheltered by a vine clad pergola. Opposite the central lawn is a deceptively spacious modern, cedar clad studio/garden room with light and power connected.
Enclosed by mature hedgerow and walling, the gardens include a series of steps and Yorkstone paths which lead between deep and well-stocked herbaceous and shrub beds and borders to link the various compartments, including a sunken garden overhung by beech trees and with rose clad trellising. There is a variety of specimen trees and evergreens to maintain colour throughout the year, and at the head of the garden a gateway leads into an extensive woodland with mown rides and sheltered glades sited beneath the canopies of a wide variety of mature trees. The grounds, bordered by a small stream are a haven for wildlife and there is a five bar gate access via right of way.
In all the property extends to 2.85 acres.
LOCATION
Hill Farm Cottage enjoys a convenient and accessible location within Ufford. The village, with its well-reputed local pub, stands just 1.5 miles from Wickham Market and 3.5 miles from Woodbridge, both of which provide an excellent range of local shopping and commercial facilities, as well as having pubs and restaurants. There is a good choice of schools locally, catering for all age groups in both the public and private sectors and numerous recreational opportunities including sailing and rowing on the nearby Deben Estuary, a choice of golf clubs, as well as rugby, football and tennis clubs.
Rail services are available in the neighbouring village on Melton with branch line rail services running to London’s Liverpool Street Station via Ipswich. The A12 which bypasses the village provides a dual carriageway link to the county town of Ipswich (11 miles) and to all destinations beyond, whilst the Suffolk Heritage Coast’s designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, includes the Tunstall and Rendlesham Forests.
