If you harbour doubts that utter tranquillity and rural bliss can be found within commuting distance from London, come and be persuaded otherwise. This piece of pastoral perfection, three/four bedrooms under an adorable thatched roof all set in its own private acre, is four minutes from Stowmarket station, from where trains reach London Liverpool Street in just over an hour. In October 2024 £4,000 was invested in the maintenance of the thatch. The entire roof was surveyed and minor repairs made where the straw had slipped or shows signs of degradation. The roof was then sprayed with a long-lasting anti moss treatment.
