Description

Quantrills is an impressive, barn style modern house that was built by the current vendors as their family home in 2008.  Being a ‘self-build’ project, the vendors were able to carefully consider the layout, configuration and design of Quantrills, resulting in a stunning house that was built using handmade ‘Reades of Aldeburgh’ bricks, with excellent attention to detail.  The design incorporated an open plan, multi-functional kitchen and dining room arrangement with fully glazed double height east facing gable elevation, together with aluminium framed bi-fold doors that deliver additional light and direct access to the south facing sunken decked terrace. 

The kitchen and dining room links wonderfully well with the comfortable sitting room with its freestanding Aga woodburning stove, and the ground floor accommodation also includes a spacious entrance hall for receiving guests, utility room, bathroom and ground floor bedroom or study.  On the first floor there is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room, as well as a second double bedroom with en-suite shower room that links through to the third bedroom, which has been used as a dressing room/nursery.  

Outside

Quantrills will be found in the centre of the village, and approached via a gravel driveway that is sufficiently large enough to park two vehicles.  A five bar gate opens onto the garden serving Quantrills.  A delightful area that faces due south and therefore enjoys the sun throughout the day and comprising a large gravelled area that is accessed from the front driveway and which can be utilised for extral parking if required.  This, in turn, leads to the sunken decked terrace, which links wonderfully well with the kitchen and dining room via the bi-fold doors.  The sunken terrace is enclosed within red brick walling, and beyond this are paviers that lead to the front door and entrance hall.
