Tucked away in the tranquil village of Hepworth, this waterside home sits on a small lake in the heart of the Suffolk countryside. Ideal for a couple or family, enjoy a wonderful blend of contemporary styling and old-world charm, complete with a crackling wood burner in the open-plan living space. Outside, sit back on the terrace overlooking the water or take a relaxing soak in the bubbling private hot tub.

Upon stepping into this single-level property, you’ll be greeted by a spacious entrance hall providing space for coats and shoes. Continuing through to the heart of the home, you'll find yourself in a bright and airy lounge/kitchen/diner. The lounge area boasts a comfortable sofa and armchair set around a cosy wood burner, perfect for chilly winter evenings. Entertainment is at hand with two Smart TVs, one in the kitchen/lounge area and another conveniently placed in the dining area, both with Sky TV. The well-equipped kitchen offers high-quality modern appliances and stunning views overlooking the pond and countryside. The dining area, bathed in natural light from an orangery roof lantern, provides a lovely setting for evening meals or family board games. When it's time to retire for the day, an inviting super king-size bedroom awaits, with an en-suite shower room for added convenience. There is a second king-size bedroom, and the family bathroom provides a bath and a large walk-in shower for ultimate relaxation. Step outside to discover a generously sized decked area with a table and chairs, complemented by a hot tub – ideal for unwinding against a backdrop of rural views.

Take a leisurely stroll through the surrounding countryside on wonderful walks that begin at your doorstep. Nearby lies the picturesque town of Bury St Edmunds (12 miles), renowned for its quaint streets, magnificent cathedral, historic abbey, popular theatre and a brewery offering tours. Just 12 miles away, discover Thetford Forest, a vast wooded natural area with trails and picnic areas, archery and various activities for children.

I cant praise Tillys enough! Drew was extremely helpful and informative, providing local dog friendly pubs and in-depth tutorials on how to work the hot tub and fire. The location is perfect and the cottage itself is stunning. It was the perfect accommodation for a lovely weekend getaway, the cottage itself has a lovely open space dining/lounge andRead more kitchen area for everyone and your pets to spend time together. My friends and I have already expressed a desire to go back and I have no doubly we will likely make many visits in the future. Hide
