4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Yaxley Road, Mellis, Eye IP23

Set back from The Green, this exceptional property enjoys breathtaking far-reaching views across the unspoilt rural countryside that surrounds the village. Occupying a superb and tranquil position, the home is discreetly tucked away from the road and approached via a private driveway serving just two other properties. Mellis has long been regarded as one of the most desirable villages on the North Suffolk border, neighbouring Yaxley and surrounded by picturesque countryside close to the Waveney Valley. The village offers an excellent range of amenities, including a highly regarded primary school and a traditional village pub, both within walking distance. The historic market town of Diss lies approximately seven miles to the south and provides a comprehensive selection of shopping, dining and leisure facilities, together with a mainline railway station offering regular direct services to Norwich and London Liverpool Street.

Occupying a generous plot on the edge of the village, this spacious and beautifully presented home offers versatile accommodation throughout. The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance porch leading into a stunning contemporary open-plan kitchen/dining room. This impressive space provides extensive worktop and storage facilities and features a well-maintained oil-fired Aga, creating a striking focal point and the true heart of the home. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is a cosy snug, offering a variety of potential uses and providing access to the first-floor accommodation. Beyond, a second reception room features a charming log-burner, hardwood flooring and a large bay window, creating a warm and inviting space in which to relax and unwind. To the front of the property, the principal living room benefits from a dual-aspect outlook, flooding the room with natural light. A further log-burner enhances the ambience, making it the perfect retreat during the colder months. The ground floor is finished with a useful WC with wash basin.

The first floor comprises four generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys outstanding views across the village common and surrounding farmland and benefits from an en-suite cloakroom with WC and wash basin. The remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish Jack-and-Jill family bathroom, complete with a beautiful roll-top bath, corner shower, WC and wash basin.

Externally, the property provides extensive off-road parking for up to six vehicles and benefits from the added convenience of an EV charging point. The wraparound gardens have been thoughtfully designed, offering an attractive combination of lawn and patio areas. French doors from the kitchen open directly onto the outdoor entertaining space, making it ideal for alfresco dining and social gatherings. A particular highlight is the detached summer house/garden office, which benefits from power, double glazing and bi-fold doors, creating an excellent space for home working, hobbies or entertaining while enjoying the surrounding countryside views.
