Location

The property is located within the accessible village of Hemingstone, which is ideally located for easy access to Ipswich, just 4½ miles to the south.  Ipswich has the wide variety of shops and services one would expect from a county town, as well as a main line railway station with trains to London’s Liverpool Street that take just over the hour.  The nearby villages of Henley and Coddenham are close by, and Henley offers a primary school, village pub and community centre.  There is also easy access to the A14 and on to the Midlands, and via the A140 to Norwich. 

Directions

Heading north on the A14, exit the dual-carriageway at junction 51. Take the second exit at the roundabout, proceeding north on the A140 towards Diss and Norwich.  After a short distance, take the right hand turning onto the B1078.  Continue along this road and proceed through Coddenham.  Having exited the village, continue for approximately a mile before taking the turning on the right (opposite the thatched house) towards Henley.  Go over the small bridge and proceed up the hill.  Upon entering the village of Hemingstone, Wyndy Ridge will be the first property on the right hand side.  For those using the What3Words app: ///clashes.slopes.airbase.

Description

Wyndy Ridge is a light and spacious, four-bedroom, detached, redbrick family home located on the outskirts of the village of Hemingstone.  The house was built by the current vendors in 2002/2003, in an elevated position that makes the most of the countryside that surrounds the property, having far reaching views across undulating farmland.  Wyndy Ridge has been a wonderful family home and boasts generous accommodation including a large reception hall, triple-aspect sitting room with inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, second family room, downstairs cloakroom, and spacious kitchen/living/breakfast room with separate utility room.  On the first floor is a principal bedroom with en-suite shower room and dressing area.  There are three further good-sized double bedrooms and a family bathroom.  The property has the benefit of oil-fired central heating, underfloor heating and Karndean style flooring throughout the ground floor.

Outside, the property is approached from the highway via a gravel driveway that provides off-road parking for many vehicles in front of a detached double garage.  The garden wraps round the property, with areas of lawn to the front and side.  To the rear of the house, the garden is enclosed by a low-lying hedge and post and rail fencing.  Immediately behind the property is a large decked area that takes in the views of the surrounding countryside.
