About this home

*SAVE ON ENERGY BILLS WITH THIS STUNNING EPC A-RATED HOME!

Future-Proof Living Starts Here. Eco home in Stowmarket, a rare four-bedroom detached that's slashed energy bills by 88%+ and wiped car fuel costs entirely. Solar, battery storage, ASHP and EV charging combine with a stunning Howdens kitchen, full fibre and a private SW-facing garden. Family space and a near-zero energy future, all in one. Early viewing essential.

Step inside and discover a home that has been meticulously improved and finished to an exceptional standard. A spacious entrance hall, laid with luxury vinyl tile flooring, leads through to a stunning contemporary Howdens kitchen-diner. Finished with elegant soft-close cabinetry, premium quartz worktops, a sleek glass splashback and a full range of integrated appliances, this is a space designed for both everyday family life and entertaining. Bi-fold doors with integrated blinds open seamlessly onto the patio, creating the perfect setting for summer gatherings and indoor-outdoor living.

The generous lounge enjoys a beautiful bay window and benefits from pre-installed AV trunking, making it ideal for everything from relaxing evenings to immersive movie nights.

Upstairs, the home offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including two particularly spacious double bedrooms, alongside a stylish modern family bathroom. The fourth bedroom provides versatile accommodation, equally suited as a nursery, dressing room or home office.

Further enhancing the property is a fully modernised loft space, professionally insulated to current standards and neatly boarded, shelved and illuminated, with convenient telescopic ladder access providing valuable additional storage.

Quality is evident throughout, with oak hardwood internal doors complemented by chrome ironmongery, upgraded skirting boards, concealed pipework, full double glazing and, notably, full fibre broadband directly to the property.

Outside: Designed for Relaxation and Entertaining

The southwest-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a private, low-maintenance retreat. Featuring attractive Mediterranean-style white walls, high-quality artificial lawn, a Yellow Balau hardwood deck and a natural slate patio, it offers the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining and entertaining.

There is ample space for a hot tub or swimming pool, while full perimeter fencing ensures privacy. Atmospheric LED lighting extends throughout the garden, creating a wonderful evening ambience.

A substantial 3m x 3.6m log cabin, complete with electricity supply, provides superb flexibility as a home office, gym, studio or garden room.

To the front, a fully block-paved driveway provides parking for four or more vehicles and includes the added convenience of a fast Zappi EV charging point.
