Mill Lane, Great Blakenham, Ipswich, IP6

INTRODUCTION
Hall Farm is an imposing, late 16th Century (Grade II Listed) detached Hall House, with well-proportioned rooms, delightful grounds and a substantial games room/annexe.

Whilst the property requires some modernisation in places, it has been successfully let in recent years and is ready for immediate occupation.
 
THE HOUSE
The house has a functional layout for a property of its period, with high ceilings, open-plan reception space and sufficient windows to allow in plenty of light.

We understand it was modernised and extended to the rear in the 20th Century, (creating a functional kitchen, boot room and second bathroom), however, the character of the original building was retained including studwork, impressive oak ceiling beams in the sitting and dining rooms and a double fronted 17th Century red-brick chimney.

THE GROUNDS
The property is being sold with 2.96 acres of grounds which include a one-acre meadow and a good-sized area of formal garden which is entirely private; this includes a large parking area, several patios and a variety of substantial trees. There is also around 170 meters of private frontage to the river Gipping which is currently screened from the house, but which could be opened-up if required.

OUTBUILDINGS
A 1956 square foot detached, single storey building was built on the western elevation of the property in the 1990s. Although it has been in use as a games room for the duration of its life, it was designed to allow a straightforward conversion into a large bungalow annexe, being of cavity wall construction and having all necessary services connected.

The property has a detached double garage (which requires structural improvement) and an attached workshop/storage room.

LOCATION
Hall Farm is located off Mill Lane in the village of Great Blakenham in mid-Suffolk. Ipswich, Needham Market and the A14 are just a short drive from the property within walking distance there is a pub/restaurant (The Chequers) and a Budgens Supermarket.
