Opening from the track driveway, five bar gates and a shingle drive lead to a parking and turning area to the front of the house adjacent to which is a detached garage. The gardens, which are sheltered by a mature hedgerow, include a variety of trees, whilst to the rear of the house is a tucked away, at home, ‘smart office’ and a large L-shaped multi-purpose outbuilding ideal as a games room. Within the grounds is a modern hard tennis court.
LOCATION
Set at the end of its tree-lined canopied track driveway, Packway Cottage enjoys a delightfully tranquil and secluded rural setting on the edge of Kettleburgh. The popular village nestles within the heart of the Deben Valley, which contains some of the most picturesque countryside in Suffolk.
Kettleburgh, with its active community has, like it’s neighbouring villages, a local pub, is conveniently located for easy access to nearby Framlingham (3 miles), Wickham Market (5 miles) and Woodbridge (10 miles) all of which provide a range of local shopping and commercial facilities.
There is a good choice of top performing schools in both the state and private sector catering for all age groups in the area, and the region’s main road and rail communication routes, together with the Suffolk Heritage Coast are also easily accessible.
A bridlepath runs along the trackway passing beyond the gated drive to the property, before heading out into the surrounding countryside. This also connects with a network of footpaths which benefit those wishing to walk from the property.
