The Property
Maron House is a magnificent family home, built in circa 1989 to the current owners specification. The house is constructed of red brick & rendered elevations under a pegg tiled roof. The house has been well maintained over the years with substantial accommodation extending to 3000 sq ft. Maron House offers adaptable accommodation over two floors, with one of the bedroom/gym being located on the ground floor with an adjacent wet room ideal for guests or as a potential annexe.
On entering Maron House, a covered porch opens out into the reception hallway, with stairs leading to first floor and three reception rooms leading off. All of the reception rooms are spacious and well proportioned rooms, so typical of many individual builds of this era. In particular, the cosy sitting room has a charming fireplace with a brick hearth, bressumer beam and brick surround. A door opens out into the kitchen/breakfast room which has a good range of units, a breakfast bar, space for a ‘Rangemaster‘ (gas) cooker and space for appliances. The room still offers room for a breakfast/dining table. Beyond the kitchen is the utility room which has access into the garage. A cloakroom, bedroom/gym and wet room complete the ground floor accommodation. These rooms could be used as a guest suite or potentially an annexe (stpp). Stairs from the reception hall leads up to the galleried landing where four double bedrooms and a family bathroom lead off. The master bedroom benefits from a dressing area with airing cupboard and an en-suite shower room. All of the bedrooms overlook the well maintained gardens. The attic space has been designed to full accommodation specification and therefore could be used as further bedrooms subject to building to planning/regulations.
Outside
The house is approached via a shingle driveway which leads to an attached double garage. The garage has up and over doors, access into the utility room and another garage door providing access into the rear gardens. The driveway offers ample off road parking with the remainder of the front gardens being laid to lawn, with a number of mature trees and hedging throughout. There is access via both sides of the house which lead to the attractive brick-weave terrace and lawned rear gardens. In addition the garden has a wealth of mature shrubs, plants and trees, offering a good degree of maturity. At the very top of the garden, there are a number of mature trees with views over paddocks beyond. The gardens in all extend to 0.45 of an acre (sts).
Location
The property is situated on Church Road, within the popular village of Market Weston. Market Weston is a mostly un-spoilt village and offers local amenities including a village hall, public house and church.

The village provides excellent access to the main road networks including the market town of Diss with its main line rail link to London. In addition, Bury St Edmunds is approximately 12 miles away. Both of these towns have a wider range of facilities including high street supermarkets, a shopping centre and schooling up to sixth form level.
