Description
A four-bedroom detached unlisted cottage enjoying an excellent position tucked away from the road towards the centre of this highly regarded Suffolk village and only a short distance from the amenities on offer. White Leaf Cottage offers versatile accommodation to both floors and has retained many characterful features throughout; of particular note is the subtle display of exposed timbers and studwork. Possibly one of the main key selling features of this charming cottage is its wonderful grounds that create an idyllic setting with established trees, fruit trees, pond, flower borders and views of the neighbouring countryside.
