That is what developers believe these new homes in Witnesham offer.

Jacks Field is a development of just six new-build homes in active Suffolk village which has a great community spirit, lots of activities in the village hall and church plus a well-known pub, the Barley Mow.

It is country living yet it is only a few minutes drive into Ipswich and there are trains from Westerfield railway station too.

The Jacks Field development has been deliberately configured as a farmyard style complex, and designed to fit in with the countryside surroundings.
