A deceptively spacious Grade II listed former hall house, offering an expanse of accommodation, 4 bedrooms, private walled garden with off street parking, situated in the centre of Long Melford.

Freer Cottage originally dates to the 15th Century and forms the end wing of a former Hall House. It was altered and divided in the 17th Century. Naturally owed to eras of architecture this property has passed through, results in offering a wealth of character features throughout to include exposed timbers, fine fireplaces, and sash windows. The entrance lobby invites one into the accommodation Freer provides. To the front is a snug/downstairs bedroom with sash windows flooding this room with natural light. The central sitting room provides a break between the front/rear, accommodation, and a lovely place to sit and enjoy the ambience created by the brick fireplace and inset coal effect burning stove. To the rear of the property is an open plan Kitchen/dining/family room with outlooks over the private gardens, a traditionally kitchen with oak worktops, butler sink with ceramic hob and one-and-a-half oven and dishwasher. All of this is tied seamlessly together by the exposed brick and tile floor. Adjacent is a further utility room which also provides access out to the gardens.

Upstairs provides access to the landing space with natural light and Velux windows, two large double bedrooms and a generous single, with a family bathroom to serve this. On the second floor, offers a vaulted room displaying historic tie beams and could be used as a further bedroom/dressing room or home office.

Outside forms a further important feature with highly desired off street parking, with the most beautifully landscaped gardens to the rear, consisting of a shingled alfresco dining terrace, laid lawn with established raised beds and private walled gardens.

Long Melford is frequently voted amongst the top 20 most sought-after villages in England and Wales. There is an excellent range of shops, restaurants, pubs, doctors’ surgery, a primary school, hotels and two Tudor mansions - Kentwell Hall and Melford Hall – both of which are open to the public. The market town of Sudbury (2 miles) provides a rail link to London’s Liverpool Street via Marks Tey (about 80 minutes). Alternatively, there is a mainline service from Colchester with fastest trains taking about 48 minutes. The historic market town of Bury St Edmunds lies 10 miles to the north.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
 
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.
 
Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • You get more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • Brokers can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • Are typically easier to get in contact with, less bureaucratic.

However with your bank maybe able to:

  • Build off existing relationship (discounts if you have a checking/saving account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Perhaps more trustworthy, more accountable than a smaller shop
  • Lower interest rates in some cases
  • Ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

When it comes to making an offer on a property a bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
