Description

This Grade II Listed farmhouse, Burts Farm, hails from the 16th century and is situated in a scenic elevated position within the village of Drinkstone, mid Suffolk. Spanning a generous 4,488 square feet, this substantial residence boasts four spacious bedrooms on the first floor, accessible via two staircases. The ground floor features three ample reception rooms complemented by two conservatories, a breakfast room, and a kitchen/dining space. A useful cellar lies beneath the house while a sizable attic room on the second floor benefits from both north and south-facing windows. Rich in original character, the property showcases oak doors, traditional studwork, substantial ceiling beams, an impressive inglenook fireplace, and elegant wooden sash windows among its highlights. Although it is habitable, the property would greatly benefit from modernisation to unlock its full potential. Set within approximately two acres of secluded gardens adorned with established exotic trees, this charming home offers various outdoor spaces including lawns and inviting patios. It also features a summer house and two large ponds that hint at its historical moated past. The gated front driveway provides ample parking as well as access to multiple garage buildings and outbuildings such as an office and garden room. In addition to the main residence, there is an opportunity for further investment with 10.72 acres of adjacent arable land available through separate negotiation. The local vicinity includes essential amenities within a mile in Woolpit and convenient access to major routes like the A14 within five minutes drive, making it ideal for commuters seeking rural tranquility with proximity to urban conveniences.
