The kitchen/breakfast room, at 16'5 x 13'8, forms the practical heart of the house, complemented by the entrance hall and a ground floor shower room.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a superb suite measuring 20'2 x 18'1, with a dressing room of 7'4 x 7'11 and en suite bathroom.

One of the bedrooms also enjoys access to a balcony measuring 14'0 x 8'1, overlooking the grounds. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms on this floor.
The second floor provides a particularly adaptable additional living area, ideal for older children, guests or anyone requiring a degree of separation from the main family accommodation. The central sitting room measures 19'11 x 16'11, while the two further bedrooms measure 19'8 x 16'11 and 16'11 x 12'3 respectively, with a shower room serving this level.
Outside, the grounds are a particular feature of the property. Extending to over 1.6 acres (STMS), they include a mix of formal gardens and woodland, creating a wonderfully private and peaceful setting with access down to the Hundred River. In addition, the property benefits from a detached double garage and a substantial brick-built outbuilding incorporating a utility room of 14'10 x 10'2 (maximum) and two store rooms measuring 10'2 x 8'7 and 6'10 x 5'11.
Altogether, Heatherlands House is a distinctive and highly versatile Suffolk home of real substance, offering space, privacy and lifestyle appeal in one of the area’s most sought-after locations.
