About this property
Constable Country perfection - Beachams Cottage
Rural perfection! Tucked away down narrow country lanes and a private half-mile section of the ancient Saint Edmund Way, this quintessential 16th Century farmhouse is wonderfully positioning in the middle of rolling Constable Countryside within walking distance of two of the Dedham Vale’s prettiest villages with great pubs. Following a full modernising renovation, the cottage retains its authentic historic character with extensive wooden beams, exposed brickwork and impressive inglenook fireplace glowing at its heart. With two exceedingly comfortable en-suite bedrooms, beautiful three-sixty degree views over a large immaculate garden and unrivalled seclusion, this is the superlative rural escape. Ground Floor Kitchen & Dining Room – Two rooms now combined as one to create a well-equipped kitchen and dining room incorporating the original architecture and floored with an intricate mosaic pattern.
