Location
1 Cherry Tree Cottages is located in the accessible village of Hacheston, which is almost equidistant between the  centres of Framlingham and Wickham Market.  Both Framlingham and Wickham Market offer good local shopping facilities, as well as primary schools.  Framlingham also has secondary schools, Thomas Mills High School and Framlingham College.  Hacheston is a hub of activity with its new village hall offering all manner of events and clubs.  There is also an excellent farm shop and nursery.  The village of Easton is within easy cycling distance and here there is a superb pub, Easton Farm Park, a bowls club and cricket club.  The Heritage Coast is within about 10 miles, with the popular centres of Orford, Thorpeness, Aldeburgh, Walberswick and Southwold all being within easy reach.  Woodbridge is within about 7 miles, whilst the county town of Ipswich lies about 15 miles to the south-west, offering frequent mainline railway services to London’s Liverpool Street. 

Description
1 Cherry Tree Cottage is a pleasant Grade II listed timber-framed dwelling with rendered elevations under a tiled roof.  It is believed to date from the sixteenth century and throughout the property are period features, such as exposed beams and studwork.  The vendors have maintained the property to a high standard and have undertaken important work such as replacing cement render with lime.  It is anticipated that some interested parties may wish to further enhance the property with a new bespoke kitchen.  

The cottage is ideally located for access to Framlingham, Wickham Market and the A12.  It is also very convenient for access to the Heritage Coast.  It is anticipated that the property would be of interest to buyers looking for a permanent home, second home, or a holiday let.  Outside, there is parking for two vehicles, along with a well maintained, mature garden.
