Overview
No2 Rettery Cottages forms part of an historic collection of buildings with an additional area of garden to the rear. Well planned and versatile living space includes many character features, sitting room, separate dining room, three first floor rooms, first floor shower room and a good outlook to the front. Rettery Cottages were built in 1862 by local landowner and benefactor Sir Edward Kerrison as a result of his Flax Works, situated on land between the current Fire Station and the river, being destroyed by fire. As a large producer of flax on surrounding land Sir Edward urgently required replacement buildings to continue the process of retting the flax and to produce the various by products. The new buildings only lasted to 1874 when the market for flax products declined. The consequent conversion of the buildings created character cottages of which No 2 forms a central part. Furthermore, in addition to the 'front' garden, No 2 as with the neighbours, has a sizeable additional piece of land along the footpath at the rear. This delightful and imaginatively converted cottage provides good living space, character structural details and great style. On an everyday basis the property is approached from the far side, along a gravel driveway and grassy path, allowing the garden to the front to be regarded as the 'back' garden benefitting from a sunny southerly aspect and a view across meadows beyond the road. Internally, the cottage is fortunate to have both a long main reception room plus separate dining room in addition to a first floor shower room, formerly a bathroom. The first floor is especially interesting due to the vaulted structure of the roof along with the split landing and stairs. The current owner, having purchased the property via Harrison Edge in 2014 has rebuilt the Conservatory/Rear Porch in addition to a number of other enhancements.LocationThe historic town of Eye is blessed with an array of shops and businesses enabling residents to be essentially self sufficient. With schools, both Nursery, Primary and High, a Health Centre and varied social and recreational opportunities, all age groups are catered for. The town includes an impressive mix of architecture and interesting buildings especially when one considers the impressive properties towards the fine, historic Church. With a tower of 101feet, the renowned Nicklaus Pevsner in The Buildings of England (Suffolk) describes it as one of the wonders of Suffolk. The house is a short distance from the town and commercial centre and can be approached by a lovely walk cutting through the Churchyard into Church Street which winds around the remains of the motte & bailey castle, passing the 16th century Guildhall along the way. It should be noted however, the kerbed footpath ends at Abbey Bridge. The excellent shops include for example the friendly 'institution' The Handyman Stores, butchers, bakers, a fine deli, two supermarkets and chemist, complementing those found at neighbouring Diss (approximately 5 miles). Diss offers among other things an 18 Hole Golf Course and importantly a well used commuter rail service which runs between the Cathedral City of Norwich to the north and London's Liverpool Street Station.DirectionFrom Eye town centre pass the Church on the left and cross Abbey Bridge heading towards Stradbroke on the B1117. After the bridge 2 Rettery Cottages will be found on the left. Turn off the road onto the track and park on the left hand side.
