Wormwood Green, The Green, Kersey, IP7

An individually built family house occupying the most wonderful secluded setting in Kersey

Built in 1964, Wormwood Green is a stand-alone country house discreetly positioned to the end of a private drive. Arguably occupying one of the most desirable, semi-rural settings in the area, the house is nestled in its undulating grounds of about 2.32 acres which provide complete privacy.Taking advantage of the special position, the existing owners commissioned locally renowned Kingsbury Builders to build a unique family house which provides spacious and well-proportioned accommodation throughout. Covering some 2,585sq.ft, the house also affords an abundance of natural light via large picture windows giving fabulous views over the gardens to all sides.It is evident the property has been well maintained over the years; however, the house does require cosmetic updating.Wormwood Green is accessed via a minor private lane joining to a sweeping drive leading to a carport, two single garages with an adjacent utility room. The gardens and grounds are a special feature which comprise areas of lawn, a raised wooded area to the south and orchards to the west, which back onto undulating meadowland to the entire western boundary. Further outbuildings include a range of timber stables. Due to its elevated position, stunning views are to all sides, particularly over the village.Having been under the same ownership and thus now available to the open market for the first time, it is a testament to the property and the location that Wormwood Green has never changed hands.Kersey is widely regarded as one of the prettiest villages in Suffolk and has a fine church and public house.
