SITUATION
Coldham Hall is located in unspoilt countryside to the west of the Waveney Valley village of Alburgh. Alburgh sits between the nearby market towns of Harleston and Bungay. The village of approximately 170 households is approximately 1 mile from the property, and benefits from a village hall, historic church, a primary school (Ofsted 2019 ‘Good’), and a playing field.
The market town of Harleston is some 5 miles to the south, offering good local amenities including shops, banks, post office, supermarkets, a high school and access to the A143.
The market town of Bungay is also nearby and has a wide selection of shops, a theatre, and a golf club with an 18-hole course. The Earsham Street area of Bungay has several excellent shops including a fishmonger, delicatessen, florists, and greengrocer. There is a market on Thursdays. The Suffolk heritage coast is within easy driving distance and there are numerous schools in the area, including a primary school in Ellingham, the Sir John Leman High School in Beccles, Independent Langley School near Loddon, Bungay High School and Sixth Form College.
The City of Norwich is approximately a 40-minute drive and is renowned for its shopping and cultural facilities, together with its range of schools, university and as a thriving business community. There are mainline railway services from Norwich and Diss (London to Liverpool Street in 90 minutes), whilst Norwich has an expanding airport. There are several golf courses in the area, whilst access to the Norfolk Broads complex can be had at Beccles and the coast. The coast is within easy driving distance and well known for its beaches, bird reserves and sailing facilities.

OUTSIDE
The approach to Coldham Hall is lovely with its idyllic rural setting surrounded by open countryside providing a memorable first impression.
The property stands well back from a rural country lane (Burntoak Lane) and is approached over a long drive through an avenue of Lime trees.

To the right of the driveway there is a meadow, with an abundance of mature specimen trees that extend throughout the grounds.
To the front of the property there is a wildflower meadow with mown pathways. Wrought iron park fencing and established box hedging separate the meadow from the house.
To the south of the house there is a large, paved terrace, ideal for entertaining, which overlooks a parterre with paved pathways.
Towards the west boundary there is an extensive lawned area, with beech hedging leading into further enclosed areas.
