About this property

    A characterful Grade II Listed cottage situated within the popular village of Monks Eleigh

    The Property
    Laurel Cottage is an idyllic mid-terrace property that overlooks Monks Eleigh’s picturesque green. The property has been sympathetically updated since 2017 by the current owners, whilst preserving a wealth of period charm.

    Set back from Church Hill by a picket fenced front garden, the cottage opens into a snug with brick floor, exposed timbers and fireplace with oak bressummer. Open studwork leads to the living room, featuring further exposed timbers and a red brick inglenook fireplace with woodburner. The kitchen/dining room has a high vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and plenty of integrated appliances, including Bosch fridge/freezer and dishwasher, as well as a 5-ring Rangemaster. The adjoining utility room has wall-mounted storage and worktops, with a washing machine/dryer. A study and cloakroom lie adjacent.

    Upstairs provides two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The front landing and bedroom 1 enjoy views over the village green. Bedroom 1 is fitted with full height wardrobes across one wall, and additional views of the secluded rear garden. The second bedroom also has integrated storage and attractive views over the garden.

    Outside
    Glazed double doors from the dining room lead onto a paved terrace, with steps leading up to the lawn, which is bordered by established shrubs and flower beds. A circular hedge feature with brick surround leads to two garden sheds and a greenhouse with decking, as well as a further brick paved seating area. One of the outbuildings could easily be adapted to make a garden room.

Bridge Farm Barns is also within walking distance of Laurel Cottage, and boasts numerous independent retail businesses including arts and antiques shops, a garden centre and tea rooms. In addition, the popular village hall hosts fantastic functions, including numerous classes and seminars. The excellent Hollow Trees Farm Shop is nearby with the market towns of Hadleigh and Sudbury both within easy reach.
