Idyllically situated in the picturesque hamlet of Thorington Street, within the sought-after parish of Stoke by Nayland, this characterful detached cottage was built circa 1857. Rich in period charm and thoughtfully maintained, the property offers well-balanced accommodation. Externally, the home enjoys a generous south-facing garden with two versatile workshops, as well as ample off-road parking to the front.

The property opens into a welcoming hallway, offering access to the principal ground floor rooms. To the front, the living room features exposed ceiling timbers and a dual aspect that allows for an abundance of natural light. A focal fireplace adds warmth and character to the space. Adjacent lies the dining room, similarly well-proportioned, with garden access via French doors and an inset feature LPG gas fire which adds both warmth and ambience during the cooler months.
The kitchen is positioned at the rear and presents a striking contrast in style with sleek, contemporary cabinetry and integrated appliances providing both form and function. Exceptionally well appointed, it offers a seamless blend of modern design and practical utility, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. Dual-aspect windows and glazed doors maximise light while offering an uninterrupted outlook over the south-facing garden.
A modern cloakroom, thoughtfully appointed with bold decor, is conveniently located off the central hallway.
Completing the ground floor is a fully equipped studio space - currently arranged as a soundproofed workspace - offering excellent versatility for use as a creative studio, home office, or snug.
The first floor comprises two double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys generous proportions and a bright dual-aspect outlook, creating a sense of space and calm. A feature wall and built-in storage provide practical elegance, while multiple windows enhance natural light throughout the day. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double, ideal for guests or family use.
The bathroom is finished to a high standard and offers both convenience and a sense of privacy, making it ideally suited for family and guests alike.
The property is approached via a gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking, framed by mature hedging for a sense of privacy and seclusion. To the rear, a beautifully maintained south-facing garden offers a generous expanse of lawn bordered by mature trees, established planting and thoughtfully designed seating areas. A raised deck, directly accessed from the house, provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and relaxation. The garden also features a tranquil pond surrounded by colourful beds, offering a peaceful retreat. To one side, two large timber workshops offer excellent storage or potential for hobby use, blending neatly into the green surroundings. The garden benefits from open views beyond the rear boundary, enhancing the sense of space and rural charm that defines this unique home.
