THE PROPERTY
A driveway to the front of the property provides off-street parking beneath a carport, with vehicle access to the garage, the property welcomes you through a front door into a spacious entrance hallway. From here, you can access the study and the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/living area — a more recent addition to the home — which enjoys an abundance of natural light through numerous windows and patio doors overlooking the garden. This area offers generous dining space and a cosy seating area, making it ideal for both family life and entertaining.
The kitchen features bespoke, hand built units by a highly regarded local craftsman complete with central island, AGA , built in electric oven/microwave unit, induction hob, integrated dishwasher and an American style fridge/freezer unit. Feature windows/double doors framing views to the garden.
The study enjoys picturesque views to the front via a secondary glazed window and includes a useful under-stairs storage cupboard, as well as access to the utility room. From the study, you step into a characterful snug featuring an inglenook fireplace, windows to both the front (secondary glazed) and rear, a further storage cupboard, and a door to the rear garden. This space also includes a ground floor shower room and access to the two staircases leading to the first floor.
A small internal hallway with under-stairs storage leads to the main sitting room — a beautiful space with windows to the side and a bay window to the front framing a view of the church. A striking inglenook fireplace completes this space. This room flows into another reception/study area with double doors leading out to the garden. A door from the sitting room also leads to an enclosed front porch, currently used as additional storage.
The first staircase from the study rises to two double bedrooms. The first has side-facing windows, built-in wardrobes, and a small en suite shower room. The second also benefits from built-in wardrobes, a front-facing view of Chelsworth Church, and its own en suite bathroom with both bath and shower.
The second staircase accesses a third double bedroom, again with side-facing windows and built-in wardrobes.
All set within 0.49 acre, the rear garden begins with a paved patio area that steps up to a well-kept lawn, surrounded by mature hedging and well-stocked flower beds. A mature hedge with gated access separates this from a generously sized orchard, which in turn leads to a tranquil area at the far end of the garden. Here, the current owners have created a private retreat, featuring a pond, and a gate providing direct access into the village-owned woodland — perfect for peaceful countryside walks. The rear garden also boasts a spacious timber summer house with vaulted ceiling, measuring 204 square feet, with electric power, suitable as home office.
THE LOCATION
Chelsworth is one of Suffolk’s most picturesque and historically rich villages, nestled within the scenic Brett Valley and surrounded by undulating countryside, ancient woodland, and the tranquil River Brett. Steeped in heritage, this charming village is known for its beautiful period homes, many of which line the main street and are framed by carefully tended gardens and meadows that change with the seasons.
At its heart is the 14th-century All Saints Church and the well-known Chelsworth bridge, a much-photographed landmark that spans the river. The community here is friendly and welcoming, with a peaceful, timeless quality that continues to attract those seeking a more gentle pace of life in an area of outstanding natural beauty.
Chelsworth is also home to the popular village pub, The Peacock Inn, a Michelin Guide restaurant which offers a warm atmosphere, seasonal menus, and a beautiful setting near the river Brett — the perfect location for a relaxed lunch or evening drink.
Despite its rural feel, Chelsworth is conveniently located just a short drive from the thriving market towns of Lavenham, Hadleigh and Sudbury, each offering a variety of independent shops, pubs, restaurants, and essential amenities. For those commuting or needing access to wider transport links, Colchester, Bury St Edmunds and Ipswich are all within reach, providing mainline rail services into London Liverpool Street in around an hour.
Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat or a forever home, Chelsworth offers a rare blend of serenity, charm, and accessibility — making it one of Suffolk’s most desirable villages to call home.
