Lower Street, Stratford St Mary, Suffolk

The Island is a highly sought-after riverside setting located on the Suffolk-Essex border, renowned for its scenic beauty and tranquil environment. The River Stour forms the centrepiece of the local landscape, offering a unique waterside lifestyle with opportunities for walking, boating and wildlife observation. The nearby village amenities and surrounding countryside contribute to a strong sense of rural character while remaining accessible to nearby towns.

The property lies within easy reach of Dedham Vale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, celebrated for its rolling countryside, historic villages and cultural significance. The area is particularly well regarded for its local dining, with the acclaimed Talbooth Restaurant visible across the river, and for convenient transport links via nearby Manningtree and Colchester, providing mainline rail services to London Liverpool Street.

Number 3, The Island is a charming mid-terrace riverside cottage that successfully blends period character with a number of more recent improvements, including the installation of UPVC double glazing throughout. The property offers well balanced accommodation with an attractive outlook and the benefit of direct river frontage, making it an appealing riverside home or retreat.

The accommodation opens into a welcoming sitting room, centred around a feature fireplace and enhanced by stripped wooden flooring and a stable door providing access to the outside. From the sitting room, doors lead into a conservatory positioned beneath a pitched roofline, creating a light filled and versatile additional reception space suitable for year round use.

The ground floor is further complemented by an inner hall with a fitted shower room and a well-appointed kitchen. At first floor level, the landing gives access to two walk through bedrooms, both featuring stripped timber flooring, together with an en-suite cloakroom. Externally, although the grounds are more modest than those of the neighbouring property, Number 3 benefits from particularly generous frontage onto the River Stour, enhancing its riverside appeal. Parking is provided to the front of the property.
