Description

This exceptional six-bedroom, four-bathroom farmhouse is nestled in the scenic countryside just beyond the historic village of Lavenham. Boasting breathtaking rural views, this beautifully presented home is full of charm and character. The picturesque grounds include a walled garden with a heated swimming pool, a barn, a tennis court, dedicated office space, and paddocks complete with stabling.

A charming gravel in-and-out driveway, lined with elegant yew hedging, creates a beautiful approach to the house. A further shingle driveway to the side provides ample off-road parking and leads to a triple-bay cartlodge, along with a neighboring plant room and log store that once sheltered livestock. Beyond this, an elegant partially walled garden reveals a heated swimming pool with a terrace surround, as well as a formal rose garden adorned with box hedging and climbing plants. Nearby, a characterful soft red brick store sits alongside a spacious timber-framed barn (70'0" x 21'0"), set on a brick plinth, offering potential for a variety of uses, such as guest accommodation or an entertaining space (subject to planning).

To the immediate rear of the property, a terrace seating area extends from the kitchen/dining room, drawing room, and living room, providing a delightful space for entertaining. This opens onto a sweeping lawn, bordered by laurel hedging and vibrant raised beds filled with seasonal flowers, shrubs, and mature trees.

To the south, an expansive lawn dotted with mature trees and shrubs enhances the idyllic charm of the setting. A collection of useful store rooms with power and running water sits discreetly to the rear, ideal for office space or additional accommodation (subject to planning).

Beyond the more formal gardens, an orchard area leads to a fenced, all-weather tennis court, surrounded by hedging for privacy.

Set in circa 6.5 acres
