Cookley

Dating to 1600 and named after the Carmelite Monks who used to lodge there, Carmel Cottage is a beautifully presented three-bedroom home combining traditional architecture with contemporary interior design. Offering flexible accommodation arranged over two floors, the cottage is positioned in the popular east Suffolk village of Cookley. A wealth of period features, including exposed wall and ceilings timbers, wooden floors and a series of brick fireplaces creates a home full of charm with character throughout.

The ground floor accommodation is both spacious and versatile, arranged to provide a natural flow between rooms. The generous drawing room enjoys dual aspects, bespoke shelving and a feature fireplace, while the separate dining room with a wood-burning stove creates the ideal space for family meals or entertaining guests. At the heart of the home lies the triple-aspect kitchen/breakfast room; a light-filled space with bespoke cabinetry, butler sink and an electric Aga, serving as a practical focal point with period charm. A study also acts as an additional bedroom, with access to a downstairs shower room. Complementary spaces include a utility room and a boot room with external access, ensuring the cottage is as functional as it is characterful.

On the first floor, three well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation; with the cottage's heritage of exposed timbers, original floorboards and vaulted ceilings enhancing the sense of space and light. A family bathroom with a view of the surrounding greenery completes this floor.
