About
Occupying a generous plot in the sought-after village of Belstead, this attractive four-bedroom detached family home enjoys a delightful setting with far-reaching views across the surrounding Suffolk countryside.
The property offers well-proportioned and versatile accommodation, complemented by established gardens, an extensive driveway providing ample off-road parking and a garage.
Ideally suited to family life, the home combines a semi-rural feel with the convenience of Ipswich and excellent transport links close at hand.
The property occupies a generous plot, with a particularly spacious frontage approached over an extensive shingle driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the attached garage.
Established hedging and mature planting provide an attractive sense of enclosure, while planted borders soften the approach to the house.
The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, with the principal reception rooms enjoying plenty of natural light and a pleasant outlook over the gardens.
The generous living room provides an inviting space in which to relax, centred around an exposed brick fireplace, with French doors opening directly onto the garden.
A separate dining room offers ample space for family dining and entertaining, also benefiting from French doors which create a lovely connection with the outside.
The kitchen/breakfast room is bright and well proportioned, fitted with a comprehensive range of cabinetry complemented by timber work surfaces, with extensive glazing providing plenty of natural light and views across the garden.
There is space for informal dining, while the adjoining utility room provides useful additional storage, laundry facilities and workspace.
The bedroom accommodation is arranged over both floors, providing a useful degree of flexibility.
On the ground floor is a well-proportioned double bedroom, offering an ideal option for guests or those seeking bedroom accommodation on one level.
A family bathroom is also situated on the ground floor, fitted with a white suite including a bath with shower over.
Stairs rise to the first floor, where there are three further bedrooms and a separate shower room.
The main bedroom is particularly appealing, enjoying a dual aspect which brings plenty of natural light and affords attractive views across the surrounding countryside.
The remaining bedrooms provide comfortable and versatile accommodation, while the shower room completes the first-floor arrangement.
To the rear, the substantial garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging, with a variety of established trees and shrubs adding colour and interest.
A paved terrace adjoining the house provides space for outdoor seating and entertaining, with a further seating area and summerhouse positioned within the garden.
