LOCATION

Dunston House is situated in a secluded and rural position to the south of the village of Hemingstone, just 7 miles north of Ipswich. The house is located nearest to the amenities of the neighbouring village of Coddenham which has a post office, shop and pub.

Nearby Ipswich provides a full range of shopping and recreational facilities as well as regular rail services to London’s Liverpool Street Station.

The A14 is some 4 miles to the southwest. This road provides the main link from the M6 in the west via Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds and access to the Heritage Coast. The A12 provides direct access to London.

THE HOUSE

Dunston House is believed to date back to the early 20th Centaury. It is constructed from painted brick under predominantly pitched tiled roofs with some flat roof extensions. The house is set back from the road at the end of a long drive and is surrounded by fields (crops). Inside, well proportioned rooms feature exposed timbers, an open fireplace and woodblock floors.

Mature gardens are the house’s best feature and surround the house on all sides.
