A secret garden paradise – enjoying a tranquil and secluded setting on the edge of Aldeburgh, an enchanting and magical 4¼ acre wildlife garden property.<br/><br/>The only way to truly appreciate what a magical environment and lifestyle that Priors Oak offers is to make a visit. <br/><br/>A simply amazing property, with the most delightful wildlife garden environment created by the last owners over the past 50 years – words don’t do it justice. Offering seclusion and tranquility, shade and shelter, the numerous herbaceous and shrub beds and borders offer a festival of colour throughout the year, with a variety of ‘garden compartments’ through which hidden pathways meander, linking through to grassland meadows and sheltering woodland making the property a haven for wildlife.<br/><br/>Almost hidden from view is the 1950’s Reades of Aldeburgh built bungalow which is now ready for general updating, but also offers considerable potential for extension, remodelling or even replacement. It currently offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, together with an L-shaped open plan sitting/dining room with a kitchen and utility room beyond. The incorporated integral garaging could be converted to provide more accommodation. <br/><br/>Somewhat eccentrically there are a pair of Victorian railway carriages which have been converted to provide annexe accommodation, tucked away in their own little garden, whilst beyond the grassland meadow is a wooden studio hideaway, offering further annexe potential. <br/><br/>LOCATION<br/><br/>The property enjoys a tucked away, yet convenient location on the edge of Aldeburgh, just a five-minute drive from the thriving High Street and popular beach front.
