Found at the end of a track within the Glemham Hall Estate, Park Cottage is an attractive detached period property, with a number of useful outbuildings, offering privacy and seclusion with a backdrop of views over farmland and woodland. Whilst the property offers comfortable accommodation in its current form, subject to the necessary consents, there is potential for extending the property into the existing outbuildings and therefore increasing the internal footprint.
The ground floor accommodation flows from the welcoming entrance hall, with a double aspect dining room to the right-hand side, complete with a brick fireplace; whilst to the left of the hallway is a spacious sitting room. To the rear of the property is a well-proportioned kitchen fitted with a range of bespoke wooden cabinetry and an adjoining breakfast room with a door opening to the rear garden and small feature fireplace. To the first floor there are three bedrooms, two of which are generous in size, and all offering beautiful views of the surrounding grounds. A family bathroom completes the internal accommodation.

Accessed over a gravelled track and positioned opposite the parkland of Glemham Hall, Park Cottage is set back from the road and affords ample privacy and seclusion. The property is surrounded by its garden which are predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with a variety of shrubs and mature trees offering an idyllic setting. To the rear of the property are two sizeable outbuildings, and include stores and workshops as well as a gardeners WC. Together with the house, the outbuildings form a courtyard-style garden area which offers an ideal space for al fresco dining, entertaining or relaxation.
Situated between the villages of Little Glemham and Stratford St. Andrew, the property is set between the market towns of Framlingham, Wickham Market and Saxmundham, each of which provide day-to-day facilities with further recreational amenities and schooling at Woodbridge and Ipswich. A mainline direct service to London's Liverpool Street Station can be found at Ipswich and a branch line to Ipswich runs regularly from Wickham Market/Campsea Ashe or Saxmundham. Little Glemham is in a particularly sought after area of rolling countryside within a short distance of the Suffolk Heritage Coast with Snape being 4 miles and 8 miles away respectively.
