The gardens are also a wonderful feature of the cottage with lawns extending beyond the southern terrace interspersed with shrub beds and mature trees and there is also a pond which feeds the lake. The property sits in around 21 acres of pretty land which includes the lake, woodland and paddocks and some wonderful views.
Wallers Farm is in a wonderful situation between the enchanting town of Manningtree (which has trains to London Liverpool Street in around two hours) and Ipswich to the west of the Shotley peninsula. Ipswich is just five miles distant for all amenities and the surrounding countryside is ideal for walking riding and relaxation.
The guide price is £1,700,000. For further information please contact Strutt and Parker on 01473 214841 or visit www.struttandparker.com.
