A wonderful four bedroom end of terrace house of 1287 sq. ft (119 sq. m), perfectly located in Orford, and only a short stroll away from Market Hill and the castle. The property is arranged over three floors and features two reception rooms, a garden, off street parking and a garage.
Upon entering through the front door, you are welcomed into a generously sized sitting room featuring an inviting open fireplace and a large window with views over the front street, filling the space with natural light. A staircase leads to the upper floors, while a door opens into the dining room—a bright and airy space enhanced by dual-aspect windows to the front and side, a built-in cupboard, and ample room for a dining table and casual seating.
The fully fitted kitchen is accessed via the dining area and is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of high and low-level units, quartz work surfaces, inset hob with extractor hood, low-level oven, and integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer and dishwasher. A stainless steel sink with mixer tap completes the modern layout. From the kitchen, a door leads to the rear lobby, which provides space for a washing machine, access to a contemporary shower room, and a door opening out to the rear garden.
First Floor:
Upstairs, the first-floor landing gives access to two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a front-facing aspect, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden. The family bathroom on this level includes a panelled bath, pedestal wash basin, close-coupled WC, and a rear window providing natural ventilation. Built-in cupboards on the landing offer additional storage, and a staircase leads to the second floor.
Second Floor:
The top floor features two charming single bedrooms, perfect for children, guests, or as home office spaces.
Outside:
Externally, the property enjoys a private, enclosed garden, predominantly laid to lawn and dotted with mature shrubs—ideal for family life, gardening, or outdoor entertaining. Further benefits include off-street parking, a large garage, and two useful store rooms, one of which houses the oil tank.
Location:
Front Street is very close to Market Hill, the main square in Orford. Orford packs quite a punch for a small village and benefits from two fine public houses (The Jolly Sailor & The King’s Head), a smokery (Pinneys), school, two well-known restaurants (The Butley Oysterage and The Crown & Castle) as well as a thriving village shop, a butcher, a farmers’ market, a newsagent and not to mention the rather fabulous Pump Street Bakery. The close proximity to the river allows the opportunity to pursue a wide variety of water sports and Orford is particularly well known for sailing. The National Nature Reserves of Orford Ness and Havergate Island are situated in the River Ore just to the south east of the village, renowned for its bird life. Orford is an extremely attractive village situated on the River Ore with a popular 12th century castle, a church which was used by Benjamin Britten for premieres and performances of some of his works including his Church Parables. There are 18-hole golf courses at Woodbridge and Aldeburgh. In addition, there are a much wider range of local schools and facilities at Woodbridge, Framlingham and Ipswich. Snape Maltings concert hall is a short drive. From Woodbridge and Wickham Market there is access to the A12 and also a train service to London via Ipswich. More extensive facilities can be found at Ipswich, the County Town of Suffolk, which also offers regular mainline railway services to London.
