Location
Wolmers occupies a wonderfully quiet, rural position at the end of a no-through road, just outside the village of Stonham Aspal. The village itself has a primary school and the well renowned Stonham Barns, which offers a range of shops, cafes and businesses, a post office, golf driving range, owl sanctuary, small fitness centre, hairdressers and beauticians. Stonham is ideally located, just 1.5 miles from the A140 and, from there, under 5 miles to the A14. It is just 34 miles from Norwich and 12 miles from the centre of Ipswich, which offers day to day shopping facilities, as well as national stores, supermarkets and rail services to London's Liverpool Street station taking just over the hour. Debenham is just 4.5 miles from the property. This thriving large village has a small supermarket, butchers, café, public houses, leisure centre and primary and high schools. Within 24 miles of the property is the Heritage Coast.

Directions
From Framlingham, proceed in a westerly direction and, at the T-junction in Saxtead opposite the windmill, turn left onto the A1120. Continue on the A1120 through the villages of Earl Soham, Framsden and Pettaugh. Having passed Stonham Barns on the left hand side, take the next turning on the right (East End Road). Continue to the end of the no-through road and Wolmers will be found on the left hand side.

Wolmers sits well within its gardens, which extend to approximately 3.56 acres and includes three ponds. One of these is a treatment pond with natural reed beds and a continuous feed and moving water via a waterfall. Water that has been filtered through the septic tank is pumped to the treatment pond for further filtration via the natural reed bed.

Immediately surrounding the property is a large pergola with established clematis and vines together with planted shrub and flower borders. The boundaries to the property are prominently hedge and tree lined and there is a public footpath that runs through part of the garden, but which has minimal use - please refer to the attached site plan. The front boundary of the property is bordered by a ditch. The front gardens include an orchard area with fruit trees, predominantly apple, and are mainly laid to lawn with established trees and shrubs throughout.

Note
It should be noted that a public footpath is located across the front garden as shown on the indicative site plan. The vendor advises us that this is used infrequently and during the last year, just four or five times.
