The Properties
The farmhouse has seen extensive and sympathetic improvement and the result is a property that offers a perfect blend of character, charm and practicality; boasting impressive exposed beams and timbers flowing throughout the property. The ground floor offers two large living spaces, all with character features and a wood burner in each room; a spacious sitting room which also gives access to a double bedroom and en-suite, ideal for guests. The spacious kitchen/dining/living area forms the hub of the home with access to a terrace running along the rear of the house. To the rear is a utility room and a cloakroom. The first floor landing transforms into a light and airy study space with vaulted ceiling (could convert to a 5th bedroom). The striking master suite has vaulted ceilings, complete with dressing area and bespoke en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms and family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation.
The Barn Annex is a recently renovated 17th century former grain store and milking parlour which currently offers luxurious holiday accommodation or as a full-time residential annex for a relative or employee. The annex provides a spacious 31ft open-plan eating/living/kitchen area with a wood-burner. The kitchen has an electric range cooker with induction hobs, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. To the rear is a utility room with a freezer and washing machine. There are three generous double bedrooms, two with en-suites and a family bathroom.
Thirty nine solar panels and a biomass heating system have been installed to improve efficiency and are extremely environmentally friendly as well as highly economical and benefits from a feed-in tariff.
Gardens and Grounds
A five-bar gate opens on to the long gravelled driveway, with the farmhouse sitting directly in front of you. A large pond sits by the double garage, brick stable building and timber-clad garden store, with direct access to the land and barn. A traditional Suffolk moat is found to the side of the house and has been used as a 'natural swimming pool'. The house and its attractive gardens occupy roughly a third of the plot, which is also home to a greenhouse, vegetable plot, fruit cage and orchard. Behind the house is a courtyard, with impressive views over the fields beyond. From here, access to an external boiler room and storeroom with outside showers can be found. Separate gated access to the barn and the 3 acre meadow can be obtained from the lane with plenty of hard standing parking with an EV charging point.
