OUTSIDE
Aughton House is approached over a shared drive with just one neighbouring property and leads to a gravel parking area for numerous cars with a carport and a double garage. The gardens and grounds are of particular note, being professionally landscaped with an abundance of mature herbaceous borders, shrubs and hedging with areas of formal lawn. Immediately abutting the rear of the house is a large terrace, ideal for al fresco dining, together with the glazed veranda and located towards the rear of the garden is a pergola avenue flanked by lavender plants and there is also a potting shed, various raised vegetable beds and an octagonal summer house. Beyond this area is an informal grassland area, ideal as further recreational land and in turn leads to a large composting area hidden by mature yew hedging. In all the grounds extend to around 0.70 of an acre (sts).

There is good access to the A14, A11(M11) and for the rail commuter there is a fast and regular service from Diss and Stowmarket to London Liverpool Street taking approximately 95 minutes and 80 minutes respectively. Norwich is also easily accessed by road and rail.

On the Rickinghall bypass turn right onto the B1113, Finningham Road and then turn left into Mill Street.
