High Street, Acton, Sudbury, CO10

A spacious four-bedroom detached family home set within approx. 1.5 acres (STS), with outstanding countryside views, extensive garaging, and planning permission granted for a further dwelling. Situated in the picturesque village of Acton, just a few miles from Sudbury.

Set behind double gates and approached via a generous block-paved driveway, this impressive home offers the perfect balance of rural seclusion and modern practicality. With sweeping lawns, mature trees and a rear paddock, the property makes an ideal choice for families seeking space, privacy, and an outdoor lifestyle.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance porch leading into a bright hallway. The 25ft dual-aspect lounge is a standout feature, enjoying a bay window to the front, French doors to the garden at the rear, and an attractive open fireplace — creating a warm, sociable space for everyday living. A separate dining room provides an ideal setting for family meals or entertaining, while the well-planned kitchen offers excellent storage and scope to modernise or reconfigure. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation for families of all sizes. The two largest bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes, and the family bathroom includes a separate bath and shower.

Outside, the property truly excels. The extensive plot begins with a large patio terrace overlooking the lawned garden, opening into a substantial paddock area. With planning permission already granted for an additional detached dwelling (ref: DC/24/05476), the home presents a rare opportunity for multi-generational living, investment, or those wishing to create a bespoke second residence (STP).

A superb range of outbuildings includes a detached double garage, a triple cart-lodge, and a further single cart-lodge, all with power and lighting — perfect for car collectors, home businesses, hobbies or workshop use.

A rare opportunity to secure a sizable family home on an exceptional plot, with immediate development potential and a beautifully peaceful village setting. Early viewing is strongly encouraged.

Garden And Grounds

The gardens extend to approximately 1.5 acres (STS) and are accessed via double gates opening onto a substantial block-paved driveway, which continues through to the detached double garage. A separate shingled driveway leads to the cart-lodges, while the remainder of the grounds are predominantly laid to lawn.

The rear garden begins with a spacious patio terrace ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining, followed by an extensive lawn framed by mature trees and established shrubs. Beyond this lies the paddock, also laid mainly to lawn, offering both excellent privacy and attractive open views. An oil tank is situated discreetly within the grounds.

The property benefits from current planning permission for an additional detached dwelling (Planning Ref: DC/24/05476). The vendor also believes that the paddock may offer further development potential, subject to the necessary planning consents.
