Residential farm with excellent outbuildings, meadows and woodland. In all about 40 acres.

Description

Church Farm was built on the site of an old farm house in 2004. The construction is of brick with part rendered elevations under pitched tiled roofs. The house is enhanced by large sash windows with wooden doors, limestone flooring covering the ground with under floor heating and light filled accommodation. On the ground floor there are two well proportioned reception rooms, the drawing room features an impressive stone fireplace surround with a Franklin wood burner and the dining room has double doors through to the breakfast room and a further set to the gardens. There is a central reception hall, a study/sitting room at the front of the house, a boot room and a large family kitchen with a comprehensive range of wall and base units opening through to the breakfast room which has a wood burner and glazed doors out to the terrace. There are five bedrooms on the first with four bath/shower rooms. On the second floor is a further bedroom (6)/games room with a box room which lends itself for a potential bathroom together with a large storage room with cupboard (an allowance was made by the builders to enable windows to be inserted in the roof).

The established gardens surround the house on all sides with a large gravelled parking sweep to the front of the house with a gateway through to the front garden area and an attractive circular brick and tiled round house to one side. There are some impressive trees, a pergola over the terrace to the rear and a fish pond to one side. The drive passes a range of outbuildings used as garages/stables/stores (formally with planning to convert to an annexe) and continues to the traditional Suffolk barn and connected building range. The timber framed barn connects to a renovated farm building which has power connected and comprises an open fronted area with 6 Lodden stables. This links to a brick building with tack room and feed stores and shower/wc facility. There are photovoltaic 4KW panels benefiting from the high rate feed in tariff.

A track leads past the outbuildings to the extensive paddock areas of the property and to a fibre sand manege (50m x 30m). A substantial round house building is located on a wide area levelled for the building used for cattle rearing. There are also further meadows for grazing and woodland areas, previously used for free range pigs. There are two field shelters on the land and an access back to the lane along the southern boundary of the property.

NOTE: There are footpaths that cross the property which are some way from the house. The barn along the side of the drive was granted planning permission for residential conversion consisting two bedrooms, bathroom, living room and kitchen/breakfast room. Ref: DC/19/1949/PN3
