Perfectly positioned in the picturesque village of Dallinghoo, this exceptional building plot offers an idyllic rural lifestyle amidst gently rolling Suffolk countryside. This is a rare chance to create a superb, bespoke house in a peaceful yet well-connected setting, just a short drive from the vibrant market town of Woodbridge and close to the Suffolk Heritage Coast.

With full planning permission granted, the approved design envisions an impressive five-bedroom home with expansive garaging and an excellent home office/studio.

The five double bedrooms are all thoughtfully designed with en suite bathrooms, providing comfort and privacy, and include a ground-floor bedroom perfect for multi-generational living. The principal suite is a true retreat, complete with an adjoining bathroom and dressing room, and opens onto a private balcony that overlooks the panoramic field views and gardens.
