Situated in the well connected village of Marks Tey, the property benefits from convenient access to the A12/A120 and a railway station with direct links to London and Ipswich, along with useful local amenities and the peaceful charm of nearby countryside.
STEP INSIDE Step inside where a welcoming entrance hall leads directly into the spacious lounge/diner measuring 5.70m x 3.28m (18ft 8.4in x 10ft 9.1in).

It features classic cream shaker style cabinetry paired with contrasting black countertops and coordinating wall tiles, thoughtfully matched to the sleek black floor tiles.
