* GUIDE PRICE: £775,000 to £800,000 *

Palmer & Partners are delighted to present to the market this exquisite four-bedroom house with quirky ‘upside down’ accommodation allowing views across the village from the first floor living area. Currently run as a successful holiday home / rental, ‘The Courthouse’ is located within the iconic 1920’s Ogilvie Hall which has been sympathetically converted into five substantial modern properties and sits in the heart of the sought-after coastal village of Thorpeness just a stone’s throw from the meare, the beach and everything else Thorpeness has to offer. The property benefits from one off-road parking space adjacent to the property and two further designed parking spaces behind Ogilvie Hall, gas central heating, double-glazing, and access to beautifully maintained communal gardens.

A summary of the 2,481 square feet of accommodation is as follows: entrance hall, utility / cloakroom, inner hallway, a good size double principal bedroom with a stylish en-suite shower room, three further good size double bedrooms, and a luxurious four-piece family bathroom which completes the ground floor. On the first floor is a magnificent 29ft triple aspect open plan kitchen / dining / sitting room affording wonderful views across the village with a fully integrated high-end kitchen area with substantial centre island. From the sitting area is a spiral staircase up to a large mezzanine level.

The seaside village of Thorpeness belongs to the parish of Aldringham-Cum-Thorpe and lies within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Thorpeness is a popular holiday village dominated by the picturesque meare which covers over 60,000 acres with various islands and inlets; and is home to the iconic ‘House in the Clouds’ which is an unusual water tower with boarded house on top appearing to float up to the sky. Thorpeness also has a charming shingle beach which is just a short walk from the village centre with its array of cafes, pubs and shops.
