Description

Hanningfields Farm represents a unique opportunity to acquire a Grade II Listed timber-framed residence, with original construction dating back to the 16th or 17th centuries, complemented by an 18th or 19th-century brick facade. This expansive property offers over 3900 square feet of living space, currently configured into a main house and an adjoining annexe, providing ample possibilities for renovation and modernisation. The interior boasts numerous period features, including a six-panel door with a Tuscan portico, prominent exposed beams and studwork, as well as sash windows that maintain the property's historical charm. Noteworthy elements like the exposed red-brick wall in the hall and charming bay window in the dining room further enhance its character. Set within approximately 12.28 acres of land, the grounds blend formal gardens with meadowland and woodland areas, ensuring both privacy and stunning views. The property is approached via a secluded access road leading to a circular driveway, framed beautifully by a large pond at the front. In addition to the main house, several agricultural barns and stables present significant potential for conversion or use as equestrian facilities. A former poultry shed located beyond a half-acre wood could be reimagined as additional residential accommodation subject to obtaining necessary planning permissions. Nestled in Lawshall, this rural village is ideally positioned between Bury St Edmunds and Sudbury. Local amenities include a primary school and public house, while more comprehensive services can be found in nearby Long Melford. This distinguished property not only offers an impressive living space but also presents substantial refurbishment opportunities to create bespoke residential units or enhance existing structures.
