Freehold

Description

Estimated to date back to the late 17th Century and surprisingly not listed, Maythorn is a charming detached three-bedroom cottage of traditional timber frame construction with rendered and colour-washed elevations under a part thatched, part tiled roofline. In recent years Maythorn has been the subject of sympathetic renovation and modernisation resulting in an outstanding home of immense charm and personality, and an internal inspection is unreservedly recommended to appreciate the qualities of the home on offer.

Occupying generous grounds extending to approaching 1½ acres, the gardens are an outstanding feature of Maythorn with extensive lawns, a multitude of mature trees and wildflower area. A paved south facing terrace abuts the rear of the cottage providing a wonderful alfresco dining area, and with no adjacent neighbours, the gardens provide a fabulous degree of privacy and seclusion. The driveway provides ample parking and leads to a large garage/workshop with power and light connected. There is a purpose-built summer house with fitted log burning stove and a former stable block provides excellent secure storage.

Recorded in the Domesday Book of 1066 as ‘Eascefelda’ (open land where ash trees grow), Gt Ashfield is a widespread rural village located ten miles east of the historic cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds which provides a comprehensive range of schooling, shopping, recreational and cultural facilities. The nearby villages of Elmswell and Badwell Ash offer everyday amenities and the market town of Stowmarket provides a mainline rail link to London’s Liverpool Street station.
