Location

Syleham is a small rural village located in the county of Suffolk, in the East of England. Psoitioned in the picturesque Waveney Valley, it sits close to the Norfolk border, approximately 6 miles east of Diss and 3 miles west of Harleston. These nearby market towns provide essential services and amenities that complement the village's quiet, countryside charm.

Though Syleham itself has limited facilities, residents benefit from convenient access to local shops and supermarkets in both Diss and Harleston. Primary education is available in the nearby villages of Hoxne and Stradbroke, with secondary schooling accessible in Harleston and Diss. Healthcare needs are met by GP surgeries in Stradbroke, Fressingfield, and Harleston.

Transport links are modest but effective for rural living. A network of local roads connects Syleham to surrounding villages and towns, and Diss railway station—on the main line between Norwich and London Liverpool Street—offers regular train services for commuters and travellers alike. Buses serve the broader area, though private transport is generally essential for daily travel. Syleham's location offers the peace of village life with the convenience of nearby towns within easy reach.

Approached via a substantial shingled driveway, there is ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, complemented by a neatly maintained front lawn bordered with established hedging. The home’s welcoming charm is immediately apparent as you arrive beneath a pitched storm porch, which leads into a bright and airy entrance hall — a space that sets the tone for the light-filled, flexible living accommodation that lies within.

At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area, appointed with quality wall and base cabinetry, a feature Rangemaster oven, a characterful Butler sink, and provisions for a freestanding fridge/freezer. The central island unit, complete with a breakfast bar, creates the ideal setting for casual dining and morning coffee, while the adjoining dining space accommodates larger gatherings and formal entertaining with ease.

A cosy snug area, anchored by a charming brick-built fireplace, adds a further dimension to the main reception room space — perfect for quiet reading or intimate evenings. The adjacent utility room provides a practical solution for laundry needs and everyday storage, with a conveniently placed cloakroom.

At the front of the residence, the sitting room invites relaxation and entertaining. A large bay window frames views of the front garden and floods the room with natural light, while a brick-built fireplace with inset wood burner adds both visual warmth and a welcoming focal point.

The property comprises four double bedrooms, each designed with comfort and privacy in mind. Two of the bedrooms benefit from en-suite shower rooms, adding a luxury touch to your everyday routine. The fourth bedroom is a versatile space, equally suited as a home office, dressing room, or playroom, depending on your lifestyle needs. The family bathroom features a classic three-piece suite that includes a freestanding roll-top bath, WC, and washbasin.

Outside, the grounds are truly a highlight. Sweeping lawns extend around the home, framed by mature trees and tall hedgerows that provide privacy. A generously proportioned patio wraps around the rear of the home, offering an idyllic setting for al fresco dining, summer barbecues, or simply basking in the serenity of the rural landscape.
