A rare lifestyle change opportunity, Acorn Cottage is a delightful and spacious four-bedroom period cottage located in an attractive position in the very sought after village of West Stow, which lies about 6 miles from Bury St. Edmunds. This peaceful retreat lies in a conservation area, with amenities less than 10 minutes' drive away. The property offers a number of features from the period with exposed doors and working fireplaces and lots of storage. Whilst viewers will love the true "cottage feel" of this wonderful home, the property is also spacious and features three reception rooms, a large kitchen diner with a walk-in pantry, together with a generous utility and useful downstairs W.C. On the first floor there is good sized landing area which also offers a workspace, with the master bedroom and ensuite with three further double bedrooms. To the outside (as depicted in our photography) there is a large and enclosed rear garden (approached via pathway) with a chicken coop, two storey playhouse, established fruit trees and raised beds. To the front there is off-road parking via a graveled area, directly in front of the cottage. The cottage is situated directly opposite the King's Forest, with more stunning walks along the River Lark a short stroll away. The cottage is also very close to Lackford Lakes Wildlife Reserve to the rear. This is a very special, quiet location that would be perfect for wildlife lovers, fishing enthusiasts, mushroom collectors and birdwatchers. West Stow is a small, friendly and close-knit community with a village club run by the residents.
