The space

THE SPACE
A spacious hallway leads to the extensive and stylish kitchen and sitting room with stairs to a vaulted family room above, which enjoys magnificent southerly views across the meadow to the River Alde, a haven for bird life. A bedroom wing is accessed from the sitting room with three king-size bedrooms (all with river views), two with ensuites and an additional family bathroom. A fourth twin bedroom overlooks the large garden.

KITCHEN
A wonderfully sociable kitchen with double doors opening to the garden for alfresco living, ample equipment to cater for eight guests, and an extendable dining table for long lazy lunches. Kitchen equipment includes a Rangemaster Toledo (two ovens, grill and warming drawer, plus six electric rings), fridge/freezer, washer dryer, microwave, dishwasher, coffee machine (please bring your own Nespresso pods), toaster and kettle.

LIVING ROOM
Perfect for cosy evenings in, this spacious, comfortable room has double doors to the garden and is furnished with generous sofas and chairs – ideal for congregating to play a game, or read a book (plenty to choose from for guests of all ages!), listen to music or watch the TV.

FAMILY/CINEMA ROOM
This large first-floor vaulted room has stunning views over the river and is a wonderful place to enjoy some entertainment with a 65-inch OLED TV, a soundbar and subwoofer giving a full cinema sound experience whilst relaxing on the enormous sofas. A wooden staircase rises from the living room and there is a chest full of games if you prefer to play instead of watching the TV.

GARDEN AND PARKING
This contemporary holiday home is in an idyllic spot just a mile from the heart of town via the road (ideal for cycling) or a short walk across fields and just steps from a private beach where you can enjoy sunsets and walks along the river, or bring paddle boards or kayaks. Foxglove House is set back from a private drive with a lawn at the front and space for four cars on the drive and the carport. The back garden is fully enclosed with plenty of room to run around and play games, or to enjoy meals at the outdoor table and chairs on the patio, with a large gas BBQ provided.
