SUBSTANTIAL BARN CONVERSION IN WHICH TO RELAX AND ENTERTAIN WITH EXCELLENT COMMUTER CONVENIENCE (VIA STOWMARKET RAIL STATION OR THE A14 (GATEWAY 14)

Clamp Farm Barn is situated centrally in Suffolk and usefully located to facilitate the ideal commute. Formerly serving part of the adjacent Georgian Clamp Farmhouse, the home is a fine example of a converted historic Suffolk threshing barn. Extensively remodelled in 2006 and superbly extended to incorporate an indoor swimming pool and self-contained two bedroom annexe accommodation with kitchenette and bathroom in addition to the four bedrooms of the main house. Of particular note is the spectacular double-height vaulted ceilings and substantial open-plan living spaces; the wealth of period studwork and tie beams on display; the statement brick chimneybreast with large inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove; mezzanine galleried interior design; and, the large principal bedroom. There is a cavernous kitchen/breakfast room with separate utility room.

Approached along a driveway, an extensive block paved vehicular parking area with a pair of gated brick archways lead to the front garden while a covered walkway connects the rear garden with a high degree of privacy, screened by an exceptionally tall hedgerow. Pristine landscaping with a series of terraces for al fresco dining.

LOCATION:

The property lies on the southeast fringe of Stowmarket – only four miles north west of the fine Suffolk cathedral town of Bury St. Edmunds. The University City of Cambridge, London and beyond are reached via the A14 east-west major road link, which is easily accessible via the new Gateway 14 to facilitate excellent commuting ease. Reputable private and state schools, an eclectic range of high street and independent shops, and some the country’s finest restaurants – including two that are Michelin stars – and leisure facilities can be found within a short drive.
